Jaws! By Stern… We’re going to need a bigger games room !

@Sgt GrizZ it's Mick on a Shark 2.0 
14k? And the rest 15-16k for the LE.
However for that money you are now getting lit speakers and the stern accessories shooter from factory
Pinside are calling it ‘Shark on an Arc’@Sgt GrizZ it's Mick on a Shark 2.0

What's the likely cost difference on the parts they can remove from the LE to the Premium ( art blades, speaker lights, shaker, invisiglass etc ) ?
Can't imagine what the premium and pro art package will be if they don't have anything on the LE.

Given there seems to be very little interest in buying a Foo Fighter LE second hand anyone going all in for a LE better hope it’s a keeper. You need very deep pockets.
I'm sure there's some interest, but also more pragmatism than in previous years. These new and nearly new games are simply too expensive for most - or perhaps not good enough value.
This is why I won't be buying nib anymore.
Take my 007, I'd lose 1k on buying and with sterns love of price increases I'd have to put another 1.5k to it to buy again. Just not sustainable. Go e are te days of buying and just losing 500 quid to buy another nib.
LEs are a big risk after Covid, Godzilla likely being the only exception to that rule now.
Lighted speakers and a shooter rod now included on LE shows Stern are aware the markets changed but clearly still a little over confident if they think those two upgrades will sway people.

Into s/hand car territory now, buy an LE and potentially lose 30% out of the door.

That's true, but Godzilla LE was only £10.5K new ?

Stern vs either one of these home brew conversions?
I paid 10K for a premium so I think a bit more.
thought they where about 11/11.5 but that’s why it’s the exception because of the starting price at release.

I reckon that the Pro wont have the Chum line moving drop target, from the video it looks like the whole section is a drop in part on the playfield and not built in so will just have a blank on the Pro, a bit like the pointless scuba diver under the playfield on Bond.

I don’t think the uk allocation of circa 15 le’s will sell at £16k maybe 6/7 get sold at that price to people who collect and keep or others where a £5k loss is acceptable

GZ LE was 12k I think
Well that will look ugly as hell.
I'm out of LE buying after Bond
6k increase over 4 years is unacceptable
Jaws looks meh atm to me, happy to be wrong when i play it in a week or so

Right outlane looks quite interesting. Is that a gate there with a possibility to save outlane drains?
I dont think so, wont really look much different other than not having the slot for the drop target.
Nice spot, like Centaur.
No doubt it will shoot well, it’s Elwin after all, seems he has been a little restricted by the licensor - some of the same music/SFX and a couple of features pulled right from the Zen JAWS game.
I remember some of the earliest rumours from those that are usually correct on these things, even K man got leaked the same rumours months ago and mentioned them, an upper “orca” playfield that tilted with the jaws mech underneath it, pop bumper that raised like circus volitare - maybe Stern wanted to keep the BOM lower due to the changed market??

Hey it's got 4 flippers! Reminds me of Baywatch for some reason 
Also, someone needs to mod the sound package so that, when that shark comes out from under the boat, it plays "baaaby shark du duu dudu dudu"

I remember buying an X-Men LE NIB for around 6k.14k? And the rest 15-16k for the LE.

Another 10k now for a LCD screen.
Not even sure if I won the lottery, I would buy at these prices.

BOM lower for more $$$
That makes no sense at all... Hopefully this isn't Stern going back to their old ways
Surely with the way things are can't be any price increase now with Jaws.
Saying that no price increases seen since Bond release in September 202, that's when the big hikes on Premium and LE were seen.
