Cool!

Metallica has a new “remastered” pinball machine.

I know a couple of guys who have no trouble spending thousands on a pinball machine based on their favourite bands. Stern, the pinball manufacturer, are only too happy to feed this obsession.

Stern’s latest release is a “remastered” version of a previously released machine. They’re calling it a “premium edition.” It includes all kinds of new features: “full-color LCD display featuring all-new animations and live concert video footage…expanded gameplay and improved presentation with 22 songs (8 more than the original) and expanded gameplay rules.” There are also “new art packages, gameplay toys, updated mechanical devices, and new UV lighting effects.”

How much? Just US$12,999–and it’s already sold out.

  • Found your podcast on spotify, and was overjoyed it was available. Previously I would get a show of yours onthe radio over the years , although Iwas aware of your online presence nothing could be better than a bluetooth speaker and Spotify to listen while doing work inthe garage! I remember some previous shows that really captured my attention and the content discussed brought back some great memories that apparently other people shared. Please keep up thisgreat work!
