Quoted from PopBumperPete:

Why would Stern even want to make parts for B/W games?

Parts would be the Primary reason! Most any business especially pinball can make 20-30% revenue on parts alone. Games cost money, parts make money.

Quoted from whitey:

Thank god they didn’t ! Seeing a MM with a metal back box and a cheesy lockdown bar ? CGC builds beautiful games

No question on CGC. With that said, I must be in the minority as I rather Like the change they made with the lock down bar. Simple, efficient, and strong. Sometimes less complicated is Better.

Quoted from pintechev:

MMR doesn’t have a metal back box? And the lockdown is different?

I never said that it did.
