It's cool that you can now lock the Start and Back buttons. Now you can set it on a chair or something and not have to worry about those buttons getting pushed.
As far as customization goes, how easy is it to change all the components? Is it still as easy as the original sticks? What about changing the artwork?
Buy me these:
Nice Wood $ 75
Glass $ 25
Screws $ 5
Old controls $ 20
Sony Bravia $ 500
Game System $ 300
Metal Brackets $ 60
2 Foreign Kids $ 14 (4 for pay, 10 out of the kindness of my rotten heart)
And I'll show you an arcade unit for under a grand.

I like the slim design of these. I doubt I will get one since I already have a TE stick but I do like that the switch locks the start/select buttons.
Interesting to note that the PCB inside of these new sticks is totally different from the original TE sticks.
Why I have no idea. The SRK peeps weren't too sure either. The sticks look great though!

Nice, the locking seems like a must-do on just about every fight stick. Dale, you're bringing one home for me, right?
I got a modded Fight Stick SE and a HRAP3 SA, already. Please don't turn me into a joystick junkie that licks the screen when browsing the tech forum at shoryuken.com, please Mad Katz, I beg of you!
Okay, I was RIGHT on the precipice of ordering the femme fatale stick today, before I saw this article. I'm new to the whole arcade stick thing. Would I be foolish not to wait for this one? Or are the differences not that major..
God, this things are expensive. I was looking for one to play Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, and it's like, 100 dollars. Shit. Also, like the above poster, I'm a newbie when it comes to arcade sticks. Any important stuff I should know when buying one?
@gore on the floor, Mirax:
honestly, I would keep an eye on Amazon, Newegg, etc for another sale.
The differences seem to be cosmetic so far.
As for lockable Start/Select buttons, how in the world are people hitting them by accident? They're not on the face like the others, but on the front, right? I can't really tell from the gallery because I'm on my mobile.

Arg, I meant wait for another sale on the older TE stick before you take the $150 plunge on the newer TEs.
@casualweaponry
Yeah, I sort of figured the older TE sticks would get cheaper when the new ones came out, but I kinda don't want to risk not being able to get a hold of one when that time comes. I have shitty luck like that, and I really like the colors/artwork on the Femme Fatale model (plus, Sakura is my homegirl).
Also.. when I posted my first comment, I was on my phone and only able to read the article, where it was stated that there were new parts and functionality. I didn't want to end up with an inferior version. After watching the video, though, I get the impression that the only real differences are the button locks and form factor.. And if the actual buttons and stick are the same as the old models, I think I've got my answer. Thanks for the reply.

To those new to Arcade Sticks:
WIRED = GOOD!
WIRELESS = BAD!
A lot of people(newbs) get this wrong! I know when it comes to Gamepads, it's the other way around but NOT with Fight Sticks. Every millisecond counts in fighting games and to have even a slight split-second advantage is a good thing.
Function over fashion.
