Spoke with Jen again today about extras on the pin. I opted for the red Smaug and that I was too late for any playfield mods. This is exactly what is happening. There are 80+ (one is mine) that are already assembled and when they get the go ahead from their testers, they'll be boxed up and shipped right out. Like you said, easier to deal with any issues while there still at the factory. She mentioned that the testing has been so positive thus far, that they may be shipping them as early as next week!

She just informed me of this after I ordered the extra head assuming I was going to inquire about it. Knowing my machine was made already and was told before that the head was going to ship separately, I knew I had time. Besides, I didn't like how dirty the playfield protector looked after so many plays on it. Same goes for the RadCals...they make the pin look like a cheap hooker. Not that I know what a cheap hooker looks like

You answered your own question. Mine's coming directly from JJP as I was a PIF day one buyer. That she reached out to me to let me know that it was done and waiting for final testing. Later when I called about the extra head, she mentioned that it's too late to add anything to it. JJP is my distributor and is doing what all distributors do when they're about to ship...inform the buyer! You purchased through a distributor. I would assume, considering your distributor did not contact you, that yours is not near completion yet. Thus not having your questions answered makes sense to me. I don't know how Jen would be able to comment on what your distributors actions may be. She only has to answer to your distributor and then your distributor has to answer to you. I would also assume it's not in Jen's best interest to answer for your distributor. Especially not knowing where you fall into his buying list. And if your distributor doesn't have any answers yet for you...well...Here's hoping that that you get one this year!

I have an Se coming. I bought it just have it. Maybe make a topper out of it or do something else with it. Order date was 11/26/12 invoice # 3042.

I'm really glad she got back to you. She's a very special person and cares very much for her customers. It does get frustrating not knowing what's going on. Hopefully, her calling you put your mind to rest.

OMG!!!!! OMFG!!!!!!!

I was told mine is one of the pins shipping out and It's an SE. Hope this helps

You're such a JO!!!

Jealous...

Get lost then!!!!

It's starting to look like those who are affiliated with and /or those who are distributors are the only ones who've been contacted. I called today assuming that one of the pins that shipped was mine. I come to find out that it's not shipping out til later next week into early the following week. She stated that she'll be calling all owners when their pin are ready to ship.

I'm assuming that nobody who's not affiliated has gotten a call. Who knows...

He's more than an ordinary customer. Has had a long standing relationship with Jack and has worked with him on several charitable venues. I'm happy to see it's there as we're heading there today to confirm my purchase before it shows up in the next week or two.

Got the call today. My SE #114 should be here in the next couple days!!!!

Thanks, nice to know. . Mine is showing up today.

It's here!!!!!!!!!

Unboxing it Friday night @ 7. Keeping it small though...then hosting a venue in a week or two afterwards for the rest of the pinheads to come play it!
