The "extras" is something that I've communicated to Stern representatives, and they DO listen. The "sales" team are different form the "marketing" team. So these to departments need to work closer. Case in point ;
Two Premium buyers pulled out of their prospective orders as they can save $1500 by simply buying a PRO, and adding the armor kit. Viola - they have a game that LOOKS like an LE.. The game plays slightly different - but not $1500 worth of difference. Still has 2 flippers and four pop bumpers..
I have no issue with the armor kit if released 6 months AFTER the LE's are accounted for and the first batch of Premiums are sold. This would encourage more sales of the armor kits for PRO buyers AND Premium buyers have their games already - bonus for Stern is that buyers have not downgraded in the period waiting for their games.
