Jurassic park 30th anniversary!

Stern wont drop prices.. but if people wont pay the new prices then a few ideas..

*Stern will sweeten the bitter pill by spending a bit more on BOM and put a few more mechs in games to justify price. What’s another $20 to get that extra $3K 🤔
* Limit LE games back down to 250-500 to get that FOMO.. this may work for some themes but already proven LIMITED EDITION isn’t worth the plaque it’s written on…
*DLC code will take over.. games realeased bare bones and every update will cost $10..
No way they add more playfield mechs, they have had the stern version of the old sega/data east? trough lock (stops the balls falling out the trough when lifted up into the service position) designed for ages and still it’s not been added, watch that be a big Spike 3 feature.

They will add fake value though where they can so what about raising the prices agsin which seems to have happened with Jurassic park 30th and was rumoured to happen officially with Elwins next release.

However they include toppers with LEs? Would that sway you Dave, as your a topper addict, would it be enough? Ultimately as long as their distributor network continues to take all the risk why would Stern change?
 
Toppers should be included with All LEs. But that won’t happen as that is more like $100 added to BOM per machine..

Godzilla Topper on order and then I have all I need 😂

I’m out of the NIB pinball & Topper game for a a year or 2.. it got too much. only grail theme BTTF and that’s my lot

I dread to think what BTTF might cost and the topper.
 
Stern logic "if they're silly enough to pay x for LE they'll be silly enough to pay y for the Topper".

Ps this is coming from the guy that has bought JP, Mando and BKsoR toppers for my pros! 🥴
BKSOR topper was incredible, I’d pay the inflated price for that one or toppers like it but they haven’t exactly put much effort in toppers since BKSOR.

Godzilla and Bond toppers have about $50 max in hardware in them, some guy took them apart over on Pinside.

I’d budgeted to buy the Godzilla topper, assuming it was as funky as the Mando topper (trailer) looks. When I saw it, I decided to invest in an Arduino starter kit with a 3D printer to come… because, genuinely, I think I will be able to do better with a bit of investigation/practice.

Looks like we have a fix for 'gate gate' for those of you with premium/LEs.

===========================
