New Stern pinball announced - Mustang

[Retropin]

I am still SOLD.

We know.. we knew before you did

Personally, I don't like Metallica music.....but I like the Stern Metallica Pro pin.....alot

I will wait 6 or 12 months n pick up a Metallica Pro 2nd Hand HOME USE ONLY.....for the right price to put next to the BNIB ACDC I have etc. Between X Men Pro, Mustang Pro, ACDC Pro, Star Trek Pro, a Metallica will fit nicely if I find one at the right price 2nd hand. But everything else I buy Stern is usually always BNIB.

What are Stern planning for the next 12 months. It means I have to find more room and more money. Aaaarrrggghhhhh.
Its only pinball.

ofcourse, Stern and Ford, What more else could a pinball fan want...

[pinsanity]

Just an FYI.

Stern are engaging in the same level of censorship on Youtube comments as they do on Facebook.

I noticed on the direct youtube link when I pasted the url this morning to AP there were at least a dozen comments (all of them critical) about the new video.

These have now all been removed by Stern on youtube.

And the propaganda machine kicks into gear......

[Caveoftreasures]

Ofcourse, wouldn't you do the same if u were them.lol   I didn't see the video but the consensus seems to be critical.
They will learn by their mistakes. I am waiting for some sort of official STERN story/announcement/explanation about the ad.

The one they have on their official STERN website with the pinball chasing the changing Mustang car, that's a beauty. One is excellent and the other not well received.

I would like to know the background to the one no one likes much ?? from Sterns point of view. Who was it for Apple/Stern/Ford ???

[Caveoftreasures]

OK, I have seen the video now.

First impresions, its no where as bad as some are saying.

The tie-in with the guy with the military haircut is that the orig pony car was aimed at ex-military men/baby boomers cashed up who wanted to spend some of their savings on something really fun. It seems like the ads author/writer is aiming at people who are cashed up and want to spend their savings on fun things, ie - the car or the pinball.

Maybe they are still wanting to throw an ad out there that is similar in design to the one that came out 40 plus yrs ago.
Maybe they are cashing in, or trying to cash in on the some 400,000 service personnel getting out of Iraq and Afghanistan finally. Who knows. They have tried a military type tie-in, but its a bit obscure.

Its colourful, and except for the military haircut, its a good ad. Not as bad as some had made out.
The military haircut is the norm in the USA I guess, but if ya barber did that to u in the land of OZ, you would cut his balls off.lol 

The ads fine except the vagina shaped haircut.

[Retropin]

Goodness me.. that proves it. Stern release a complete pile of dogs do and yes, you do like it Cavey.

[Caveoftreasures]

I don't love it, but its not unwatchable.

I am a stern liker, u are a stern hater. There is room to meet in the middle.
You know you like Gary Stern, you have his photo in your wallet afterall, admit it.lol

Its all good Gav, I hate the guys "runway strip" haircut. It looks like someone from a porno shoot glued it to the top of his head. He just needs a few leds to light up the runway for night landings now.lol

That's where you have me wrong.. I don't hate Stern. I don't like many of the things they do and I wouldn't buy one of their machines ( opinion yet to be made on Metallica), but I don't hate them...
I can view this ad with an open mind and come to the conclusion that its bloody awful.. and that's because it IS bloody awful. you on the other hand have blinkered vision and your desire to see STERN as the greatest pinball manufacturer ever dictates your opinion on everything Stern. I applaud you for trying to find the positives but if you find a few positives in a pile of crap then it is essentially still a pile of crap.

[Caveoftreasures]

Gav, just because u think its bad, doesn't mean its bad for everyone on the planet.

Blinkered, NO.    I don't say u have blinkered vision just cause u don't like it. Accordingly, I am not blinkered cause I don't hate it.

Anyway, spend some time looking at this page instead.

Ever since u got divorced from Gary Stern, u have been sooo un-affectionate to Stern.lol

Its all good, at least u have a sense of humour, sometimes.

Flip it before the honeymoon period ends and the genuine feedback starts filtering in. They will be in the 4-5k range in less than 12 months like other Stern misfires.
