Sterns labour cost just halved with little wires only to solder and cat 5 cables to simply plug in.
Easy easy easy.
Now things will get exciting.

And three times the floor space at the new factory to run 3 production lines at once if required.
Pump up the volume and manufacturing costs and time per machine reduced significantly. Excellent.

Will Vault editions switch to this system.
Can Star Trek n Mustang n ACDC etc etc go to the new technology ? Will Future TWDead orders go new tech SPIKE TM ?
Email time to Borgy.

Will this 50% reduction in manufacturing costs be passed on to customers ?

There is no way Stern or AMD can hide behind the AUS$ if this game does not have a serious price drop to reflect their manufacturing costs being halved.

Not 100% sure on this - But the license for AC/DC has expired. They would have to sign up a new agreement - which would be the smart thing to do. Stern would not waste their time with Mustang, as distributors can't move this lemon. TWD Premiums might have missed the boat on this new tech ?
