The Front • The Teaser Trailer
Yeah, you've been hanging onto my every word over the past few days on Twitter, following the trailer speculation thread, and have, in general, been thoroughly confused.
Don't worry, the waiting is over. Introducing the MacHeist Retail Bundle announcement trailer, featuring David Fincher inspired cinematography:
Download High-Res
This is the first product out of our Department of Propaganda, and we hope it enhances the whole MacHeist experience for those who check it out. Huge thanks to my friend Kevin Capizzi (who some of you may remember from My Dream App) who took the time out of his busy schedule to model, animate, and soundtrack the whole thing. Yeah, he pretty much did everything while I sat back in the producers chair. But huge kudos.
And if you still haven't watched it, it features laser traps. Booyah.
We hope you guys enjoy, because Kevin's definitely interested in returning with some even craaazier stuff for MacHeist 3. 
*to note, 1password and EarthDesk have been replaced with another app.
Oh..My God... That Was so cool!
Awesome!

Awesome job on the video. Love the lasers. 
I'm afraid now I have even more questions. How are we supposed to get referrals from a real-life retail bundle?

We may have a way to refer online sales, obviously physical bundle sales, no.
Sounds awesome, Phill, but why the repeats?
Cha-ching, Coversutra, Awaken, Nanosaur, Bugdom, Wingnuts, DevonThink and iClip have all been featured in past bundles... 
Oh, and truly amazing video!!!

looks like seasoned heisters are out of luck on this one, as we already have that bundle (other than WriteRoom, and maybe the 1Password replacement?)
Sweet bundle though, all great apps! I think its a better bundle than macupdates offerings, but I don't have any of them so thats where i'll be spending my cash this month.
and nice work on the trailer, love the shakey 'first person' look

This is a 'best of' bundle. We stuck in TextExpander, WriteRoom and Xslimmer for the hardcore members.
Dang. Now I'm' really glad I turned on mobile twitter notifications.
Is that the official list for the next MacHeist? what about Pixelmator and 1Password, I missed the last MacHeist, and I really want these apps.

Does that mean that "hardcore members" will have to buy the other 9 apps over again if they want the three, or will there be a different deal for people who have bought the last two bundles?
Somewhere over the rainbow... treetops fly!
I got my referrals.

Yeah...I have to admit, I'm pretty disappointed with this "best of" bundle and I'm certainly going to pass. If they had apps like Pixelmator, VectorDesigner and a few others, I definitely would have jumped in since I passed on the previous bundle and was regretting it. Oh well...
Time to change this to...
Well, since I bought the two other bundles so far, I have 8 out of the 12 apps, and the rest are just not worth it. Maybe if there's a different deal for the hardcore members like me, but otherwise, I'm not buying.
Don't worry about it, if I were you I'd just wait and check out the referral program. It's seriously baller, and it is meant for you. 
Well, if there are brand new apps in the referral program, then I might just do it.
I really, really hope that's the case. I want MH to kick MU's ass pretty bad.
great idea. as for me i will pass, but certainly will TRY to refer. But everyone I know has already bought the other bundles. Oh well...
I also will be going with the MU bundle.

Yah, great job on the video, mwasome. But not worth it for the heister on the budget. Unfortunate, as I was really hoping for something to do, like a heist.

There are a lot of brand new apps in this, not to mention, you know, iPods and such.

That'd be pretty sweet.
