I love the artwork and idea of my. Metallica pin but its about as much fun as Xmen right now. I don't use Facebook but has anyone continued to post on sterns page the issues with no code update?

Yea i may be exaggerating a little but right now its just not as fun as it should be.

I agree with you. Absoloutely no communication with the buyer. They had the time and money to make the new "Mustang Pinball" trailer though...

Man thoose rubbers have a lot of bounce.

Stern Sucks!!! I left a message for tech support yesturday and still haven't recieved a return call. I'm not sure if we will see an update unless they need to sell some more. If they can sell Mustandgs and TWd pins there not gonna worry much about what's already out the door.

I hope ur right but its getting old waiting.

I called and waited on the phone for twenty minutes and then it finally made me leave a vmail.

There should be a more pronounced sound when the hammer comes down. Pa-Pow!!

If they can't do something that simple I give up.

If I had a Facebook i would post something about code everyday until they un-friended me.

While the initial presence of WOZ and the way it looks may get customers to step up to the coin door, the way it's built and plays keeps them returning. Stern has gotten so use to cutting corners and not worrying about the home buyer that I'm not sure if they will ever be able to step up the quality. Also I don't expect every pin to be a hit but at least show some effort. Metallica has potential- if they finish the code it could be great.

Yea while that might not suprise some people lets hope they have more professionalism than that.

Predator people recieved an early Christmas present.

Again the problem is communication. If Stern would just give simple updates. You would think they would have a customer service department. How hard is it to say we are/are not gonna have an update and give an eta... How friggin hard is that?

No, Perhaps they don't after all this is a small community. However this isn't the only outlet in which customers are complaining.

I will say this though, Stern has consistantly copied rgpr's, pinsiders, Bashers, and villagers. They've watched for several years as modder's have changed pins and stern has implemented that into theyre designs. The "LE" was in part invented to capitalize on the mod market. They thought if outsiders could make some bucks why not offer a couple hundred pins to cash in.

Take for instance the laser etched side rails that Terry did. Then stern did it for ACDC. Then we sold laser etched with EL paper- Then they did LEDs in Star Trek. I'm not complaining as its good for pinball, bt don't tell me there not paying attention. Gary learned from that by saying the home market didnt matter 6-7 years ago. Now its a key piece of his business model.

Also cointaker selling complete kits and stern offering LEDs as an LE option
Shakers motors as well and even speaker update kits.

Yea and apparently this Christmas their hungover in a no-tell motel with a prostitute with no thoughts of calling home.

Anyone have trouble on the premium or LE getting into the snake? I never paid much attention until I played a pro. Its a lot easier on the pros.

Is there any pics for this? It's definitely what I need to do.

Just guessing but since they released "Lucie" It might be ST-ACDC-XMEN-MET, in that order. We will see.

I'll tell you this much. That lady had severe burns and spent a week in the hospital. After they settled before appeals she ended up with half and deserved it all.

She knew the coffee was hot. This lawsuit had a lot of misconception. The news said she was driving when she was actually sitting. The temperature was 20 degrees hotter than their max now. The burns were in between hers legs and she had skin grafts. Like the other guy said she only wanted hospital bills.

I wish this whole thread was posted on their Facebook!
Prior Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance... When will they learn.

What's gonna be fixed first?
1. Obamacare
2. Metallica Code

Why its a social program not politics. That would be like banning , Which is coming first, Metallica code or my tax refund?

Well this isn't a place for politics but some people get so overly politically correct that they don't know right and wrong. ..........Gotta give all the kids in the pinball tourney a trophy and what have you.

I respect what your saying and again some people go overboard with being sensitive to anything they may almost be political.
Its a social issue not a political one. ( Only political if u make it political ) Its only political if were talking about it in reference to a platform that politicians may run on or against. Otherwise its just like education, taxes, social security. High gas prices. or the military. That being said ill refrain from hurting anyone's feelings...Sorry...
However you do realize your being more political and drawing more attention than my post by the comments you said. Plus mine was funny.

Is Lyman really working on it? I've heard many people say he is but how do u guys know? I've looked for confirmation but can't find any?

But where's the confirmation?

Didnt know Lyman and you were that close. Then its surely lost with no way of finding.

Seriously does anyone one have confirmation on Lyman's project schedule ??

I understand that and would love to have your scared stiff with this verbal contract.. However i know how rumors get startedf.
I was told by someone in the know..wink wink what the next 3 pins are gonna be. I'm not gonna post it though because I can't list where I heard it...
I was just truly wondering if it had been posted by stern or Lyman somewhere. I heard Lyman talking with someone about it at a Tourney and meant to ask but got busy and forgot.

There's no way its his primary job or he wouldn't have one. Its probablly like a wife asking her husband to fix a leaking faucet. He'll get around to it when he feels like it.

No more Sterns for me until there proven!! Goodbye pre-orders

No more Sterns for me until there proven!! Goodbye pre-orders...

I"ll ask Lyman at Pinburgh. Yall hold on. Its only 6 weeks. That's Soon right?

Yea Im sure it is Bryan. I was actually joking but it would be tempting. Not sure I couldn't ask being as aggrevated as I am. I had a conversation with him at Papa and it didn't come up.

I don't have a Facebook but considered it just to post questions about when this code is getting released? Everyone in this thread should post until they give up some info.

Maybe that's why it was a year and a half? Just sayin? .... Another term like chilax that needs to die.0

Screw Stern- this is BS.

That's the way it should be. I had an uncle that owned a few chickens for eggs for his family. He would usually have a surplus and sold about 3-4 dozen eggs a week to neighbors and he paid tax on it every year.

BtW If you do a Congo translite i estimate the value of that pin will increase immediately. You helped Shadow a great deal my friend.
