Gav, perhaps there is ALOT of TRANSFORMER playfields n bits n pieces n hardware left at the Stern factory which has forced them to think of a budget way of moving all that stuff on to get some $$ money back. That makes sense, cause I couldnt see them tooling up and scourcing more Transformer stock if they have quite alot still on hand. Alot of dealers still have Transformer Pro and LE stock on hand too. Its just a guess, but it might have some merit ?

IF Stern EVER move in this direction with its PRO or any other REAL pinball machine, then I will revoke my fan status.lol
