Quoted from edcianci:

i was planning on buying one and i did not just because of price and how many - nothing to do with the game itself as i think it will be awesome - i based it on the price and 799 being made. is anybody not buying because of the same reason.
thanks ed

I can't argue the price point (still cheaper than MM, MB, AFM, etc.), but the number of units isn't really an argument. Especially if you are a WOZLE owner at 1000 units (is WOZLE still "Limited"?)
There were many many complaints from collectors that didn't get a MOPLE and they all complained Stern should increase the number of LEs to satisfy demand. Now they have and the other side is complaining. I'll agree $8k +/- is a lot of cheddar for a pinball machine. Each collector needs to decide if its worth it to them (and not just complain because its out of their price range). Heck, when I bought my Dodge Ram pickup, I wanted the top of the line model with all the full features. I couldn't afford it (or it wasn't worth it to me) so I bought a more stripped down base model. I didn't gripe about the higher end model being too expensive.
