Pardon my cynicism...
Neil Armstrong and Crazy Denim ....sorry Levi
Both on pinside doing a WWE tag team crusade against any negativity towards Jaws + Team Elwin.
It was insufferable but also comical at the same time ...

I have nothing against Stern Fanboi’s, in fact stern games rank highly in my lineup.
However since GZ it seems to be a downward spiral of reducing the BOM by virtual locks, ignoring bash toys and no longer having those real moments when a multiball kicks in.
Foo aside which I love for the Alien theme (not the music) at least flows beautifully, has a cracking bash toy on the prem and the gimmick ball saver never gets old.
It reminds me in the flow of GZ in many ways with all its combo paths.
Bond, Venom and now Jaws have been an easy pass for me. Luckily a mate has loaned me Foo Prem or else I would have had one of those bargain LE’s

Your missing out on Bond, its an instant classic so glad I got mine
Foo after the shine wore off, I think is rather dull
I enjoyed Venom the handful of games I had on Neils LE but also I don't think its a keeper or one I'd like
Rumour is X-Men 97 is an upcoming theme and comic book wise thats a dream theme for me
Don’t get your hopes up too much, based on Disneys current quality and performance there a good chance they will **** up X-Men97, now if it’s as good as the original series, hell yeah but I am less than confident with Disney pulling it off at present plus the original series set a very high bar!

I'm mostly a pro buyer so the reduced ball locks etc in prem/le don't affect my decisions really but equally Venom, Bond, and probably Jaws (not 100% yet though) are passes for me so it's not just about the mechs in the higher tier models not being as good. Stern may just be a victim of their own success, they've made some amazing games in the spike 2 era, it's hard to keep making better and better.Neil Armstrong

It all good for me Kirk I’ve no room anyway.
FOMO died for me when LEs lost there appeal due to price and the better looking Anniversaries dropped. We can buy Pro’s and Prem’s anytime.
I have actually played a couple games on bond and look forward to playing Jaws and Venom but I doubt they will enter Coly Central but we will see down the line.
No real news there. Neil + Stern = love it

Haha Levi’s feeling towards Stern are simple...
Come to think of it a Tropic Thunder pin would be brilliant!!
Man there's so many coming out I can't keep up.

You were right at first then disappeared into crazy talk
from CES
The shark bite in the armour on that LE is terrible. Not a very big bladdy shark that did it!
Looks like a statue of liberty silhouette
Reminds me of a silhouette of an explosion. Bite should have been all along the rail.
Reminded me of the same, explosion silhouette off google, Stern never cut corners when it comes to the little details
Stream moved to Monday.
I thought so also

The JJP Cake toppers line was well delivered.
Giving them the weekend to put out a code update maybe? Seems the most obvious reason they would push it back 3-4 days.
Maybe but the other theory is a huge snow storm in Chicago.
That’s certainly up there with good reasons

Looking forward to the stream tonight. I know I'll get Jaws at some point but I'm wondering whether I'll stick to my sensible plan of waiting for 1.0 code or if the stream will convince me to get one early!
