This is a lower-priced version of Stern's 2008 'Batman' with fewer playfield toys and with different software, and designer George Gomez states it is a completely different game to play. Reportedly, 48 of these games have been built as a marketing trial for sale in selected Costco Warehouse retailers. If successful, then more will be made, but with further cost-saving attributes. For instance, the cabinet may not be as thick as these first 48, which have the standard commercial-strength cabinet. Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc., refers to this cost-cutting version as the 'Standard' model, while the original version is the 'Pro' model.
