The same mindless people who bought the music is buying this game..
If you made a Rockin' With TOTO Limited Edition... it would sell out in 5 minutes too... why? Because more than half of the people buying LE's are Speculators....
Has ANY LE made to date LOST any value yet? Seems to me ALL of them have INCREASED in value.
How may METURDICA PRO editions will be sold in relation to say AC/DC PRO Editions? That will be the TRUE test of popularity.
By the way I have #34 Locked up for the Rockin' With TOTO Limited Edition... Looks like a WAY better game anyway..
Flake:
Smartbomb - man its pretty clear you have a bias towards this pin because you clearly are not, or ever have been, a Metallica fan. Doesnt make it a bad pin gameplay wise. Fact is you dont know how it plays.
Did you get beat up in HS by a guy wearing a Metallica T-shirt or something? They had many good years of quality music. Just because its not your cup o tea doesnt make it mindless music. Actually as a Xioua pointed out earlier there were actually some thought provoking messages in their music.
Chill

Transformers LE didn't sell out and sat at distributors for quite a while. X-Men LE Magnetos are still sitting around. Hulk LEs are being sold off at losses now by people who want Metallicas.

Thanks for enlightening me about the few LE flops that there are..I appreciate being kept up to date.
I spend too much time shuttered in the shop...
And just how many HULK defectors are there?
BMI Gaming says they have Meturdica LE's for $8075...ouch.
Someone would really be a PUPPET to pay that price.
How is that sold out? Is it because distrubutors bought them?

It's a fair question. Judging from the amount of scrambling going on on Pinside I assume that most of the distributors are sold out too. Some people are talking about even having distributors offer to buy their preorder back at a higher price (presumably to sell it again at an even higher price).
The whole thing is stupid to me. Bad idea to plunk down thousands on something that doesn't even exist yet. I guess there are more than enough guys with very deep pockets, though, and no impulse control.
