Quoted from ArcadiusMaximus:Stern shouldn't (have to) re-theme because a small majority didn't get their way. Don't like IM? Sorry, maybe next time... That being said I don't remember this amount of disdain with any other music theme pin released to date (not even Aerosmith). Which is crazy to me because IM has arguably the *best* most fleshed out source material and music of any music themed pinball machine EVER CREATED.
I agree, they don’t have to do anything. But, I am actually surprised that Stern doesn’t do more re-themes. It would be way cheaper to make multiple themes with the same design rather than creating whole new designs every time.
Make this same, great design with an alternate theme. Archer, Bob’s Burgers, Rick & Morty, Led Zeppelin...whatever. It would dramatically increase sales of this design.
Simply put, many people want this design but not this theme.
