……I love that movie Scream, the restaurant scene is in “Old Homestead Steakhouse" in NYC (best Kobe burger ever, went there with my Mother back in 2004 ) that restaurant could be an upper playfield lol

Btw, In the blu-ray version there’s a blurred picture hanging in a wall of that whorehouse.

Btw, In the blu-ray version there’s a blurred picture hanging in a wall of that whorehouse and I have no idea what can be in that picture mate … I’ll guess that can be a Mod for the ones who saw this on VHS lol

I watched it last night on Amazon . I liked it , I'm surprised I hadn't seen it before .
The meat mincer could be the ball lock .
The blurred picture is a bunch of dudes with their wangs out

… oh man, thanks for letting me know that Scream. The 2nd part (1984) is not that good IMO, and indeed about the Ball lock that’s a nice idea Mate

Agreed but Mandalorian more than makes up for that POS. It's only at .97 and so much more enjoyable

IMO it's the other way around with SW >>>> Mando

#21208 2 years ago

Maybe not guarantee or first crack, but do they at least put an allotment on their store? Even if just a handful? Or is it 100% distributor thing

#21209 2 years ago

I heard everyone purchasing Godzilla gets one!!

If you want one I would get with a reputable distributor. Someone will alway back out of the deal. Just be ready to wire funds ASAP.

I do not think Stern is the best place to hope for an LE in these days and times !

Quoted from beltking:

My guess $6499 / 8200 / 10250

6400 old Metallica premium price. game is loaded with gizmo's and gadgets/ Well worth the money \
/ Todays Homepin pro with a coindoor at 6499 Stripped like a Led zep pro or Godzilla pro ... LOL outta your fracking mind . Not allot in it
8200 used to be LE price now just a Premium Coin door home pin... LOL
The prices seem to be of the gouging type .
If godzilla pro doesn't have the same amount of Magnets or gadgets as an old MET pro which was back then about 4600 bucks no way in hell i fork over almost 6500 for it , Never in your wildest dreams STERN ! Never

Cant really compare 2013 prices with today's tho. Lots of things driving prices, cost of goods, new players, and good old fomo.

Iron Maiden pro or JP pro have a lot in it and game play is very comparable to the premium.

Don't forget Met pro had no spinners what's that a $2 part? Both JP (1) and Maiden (2) have spinner(s).

why/ Salaries have not skyrocketed like this.
besides Metallica and 2015 games where actually Made with real Components that stand the test of time as oppesed to the spike system boards that were in the costco Homepins . besides all that extra wire from head to playfield .
Now they substitute Homepin parts in the Full Body game remove tons of cost from all that extra wire and all the Real Components to these spike boards ,give less features and skyrocket prices from 4500 for a pinball game..
Wish there was never LE/Pro,CE ever made. Does not feel like they missed out on an opportunity back in the day when the only choice was a 2 player model or 4 player but playfield was the same .
The prices are not justified and glad people will buy at these prices so they at one time in the future they will be for re sale as i am out of these NIB prices that come with Playfield lotteries and or no features with prices of a Monster Bash or AFM

Im done with people crying nonstop about stern’s prices rising. Take a look around, ALL PINBALL PRICES ARE RISING! Look at the Banning auction and see what folks a dropping on used games. Stern is a business and business is good so why not raise prices?

Because then people would have to spend more money.

Those posts are just exhausting. It’s like reading code. But nonsensical.

Not to bring up home prices again, but the point is, the world is upside-down right now. Everything is more expensive, including other hobbies I partake in not related to pinball. But I get it, it's hard to resist complaining about it. We are in an unorthodox period in history. This sentiment goes far beyond pinball. We (society, humans) need to weather this storm and hope it improves. Get ready for a long haul.

Bringing up Banning is like Barrett Jackson is to classic cars, people with too much money over paying for cars and driving up prices for all cars in the market regardless of condition. It’s not a good thing.

#21235 2 years ago

What is the difference between a stern distributor and a stern dealer? People who post here keep referring to purchasing from a distributor.

Not saying it was good or bad but as an example of increasing prices across the board. Ive gone to Barrett Jackson 7 times and its a pretty good indicator of classic car value. A few cars will go for ridiculous money but most go for market value or slightly under. The Banning auction is obviously a crazy outlier but shows that its not Stern’s fault prices are on the rise as a whole, just that pinball is becoming more popular to the mainstream culture.

That would make a fun pin with good objectives but if the licence is too much they could go for Battle Beyond the Stars , it has a lizard man as well

Was BBTS big downunder? I watched it a ton growing up but it seems that nobody gets my references to it.

It’d be cool to have modes where you have to recruit each fighter. Plus you could have Nell as the center pf art. Who wouldn’t want to play pinball and look at a spaceship with tits…

Mate , I had never heard of bbts before Saturday night , I love those types of movies and don't know how I had never heard or seen it before . I've recently found a few '80s movies , on Amazon prime that must not have ever been shown over here . 1 movie which is total crap and not worth watching is Tentacles .

This isn’t a thing anymore since the meeting and reveal are almost at the same time now.

It's 9 a.m. in New York , what time do you think we will see anything .
What usually happens is , it's past 11 here and I get up at 5: 20 then I get to work and see there are like 1000 + posts

#21245 2 years ago

I was told the reveal would be tomorrow. Is it going to happen today?

Well it’s usually on Tuesdays I think, but if it doesn’t get pushed back, I say before lunch today or tomorrow.

Remember the good old days of new releases and the flood of used games at great prices that would hit the secondary market in correspondence with a new release. What happened? Who is selling that cq gem to buy Godzilla? Have not seen the bump in secondary market like we used to

G-G-Godzilla
