Has anyone bought one? Does anyone care at all in this LE? Never have I seen such apathy towards an LE!
Quoted from LesManley:An operator here is buying one for his location. It should be arriving next week. Apparently he wanted to order a Premium to get all the features, but was talked into an LE at a "good deal". I was told by multiple dealers that the LE, and Premium for that matter, are not selling well at all so they are trying to move them however they can. I told him he was throwing away money getting an LE, but he wanted to do it. At least I get to see and play one, but I can't imagine he will be recouping his cost anytime soon and/or the resell value being there when it comes time to sell this.
No surprise. This LE is going to be one tough sell unless they drastically drop the price. Drastically.
Quoted from hank527:I'm hearing the same.
LE and Premium sales are way way down and thus there is a push to develop the next title real soon. If Rumors are True we will see pictures of The Walking Dead in June and the Premium will have lots of upgrades.
I very much doubt that half of the Mustang LE's will get made.
Get last Metallica update out and do another Metallica pro run
Quoted from hank527:I'm kinda shocked they would announce TWD in June without letting Mustang LE and Premiums hit the market. Fact is the last few Stern LE games sold out to distributors and Mustang LE has not. - This is probably a wake up call to Stern, but what do they do? - I guess they say move to the next title ASAP and hope they sell it out.
I'd like to go back to PRO and a blinged out LE without additional gameplay features. Hell just raise the price of the pro $200.00 to add another toy or two.
Also heard they are toying with locked in pricing that distributors are going to be bound to. In that case I do not see them selling a single LE game at a locked in price point of $8500.00
I think people will have a hard time paying $5000.00 for a pro as none of us are used to that price point.
Thats why they won't make them all. As long as they are producing something, production line rolls on. Hence bringing forward next pin as Mustang LE is a busted flush. It might even be a good game but for current price points, it needs to be spectacular.
