Appreciate the communication Rick and also the thorough testing to insure we all get the best machine possible.

Quoted from Pinchroma:I just saw the pics of the black powder on MMr and it is AWEFUL. Some of the worst color selections and application I have seen in a long time. Stern picks a decent matte wrinkle for their black. The 1/2 matte vein black used in the game in the pictures is used on things like fireplace tools and cheap faux iron work that sells at walmart. I would have gone with a 95+/- black gloss or a proper non vein 45+/- matte. There is zero cost difference between those powders.
Ugh I'm going to have to sell proper black armor kits.
I saw this on Urban Dictionary: 
Aweful
Synonyms: I'm stupid, I can't spell, I'm illiterate
It's spelled awful. No E. Just awful.
As opposed to its opposite, Awesome, which has an e. Understood? =) Good!

Here is some info from the UL site regarding Amusement Machines.
Gives a good idea of timeline.
6 weeks is what I've read.
Have a look:

I am a fully paid customer of a MMRLE. Correct me if I'm mistaken. Woz took a while to get to market and when the first ones finally came off the line there was an issue with some boards that had to be replaced. I'd rather wait a little longer and insure that I have the best and most tested machine before it shows up on my doorstep. I honestly believe that is all Rick and others are trying to achieve this.
There is no hidden agenda. They know as we all know if this project turns out to be a tremendous success (which I believe it will) other great titles will follow. The Pinball community will most likely gain more fans such as myself and Pinball will become all the more recognized.
I myself am very new to Pinball and just enjoy playing the game. Heck when I bought my first game I thought that would be it. But as you all know it is a very addicting hobby and that is why I'm now waiting patiently for my next title and I'm sure I've got one more after that.
Just sit back relax and the MMRLE will be out there for those that want to enjoy it and those that want to critique it.
I'll be going now to play some Pinball. Have a great day everyone! Party on! 
Just thought I'd let you know if you don't know already.
Bakaushan a fellow pinsider will be broadcasting live from Expo 2014 via ustream.
He will be covering PPS at 1:00 pm Friday.

Have a nice day!
Quoted from RobT:Just for clarification, I'm not there. Got that from a friend who is.
Thanks for the clarification.
A big thumbs up for your friend then!

I'm surprised the anti MMR guys didn't make a joke about the fire extinguisher being right next to the MMRLE. Tying it in to the whole UL thing.
I guess it's because Whysnow is too busy defending Predator on another thread
Thanks for the review and pics Jalpert
Quoted from Whysnow:Apples and oranges. 2 totally different companies, agreements, and promises.
Thus far it is my understanding that no one has had a missed delivery date for Predator nor has the agreed build changed. No communication sucks but still everything as promised at this time.
I also will choose to treat a company run by real heads and thus far has met all promises different than some greedy guy just looking to take constantly and missed promises.
I will say they both have very poor communication skills, but one seems to avoid it while the other lies to customers. Neither is a good way to do things.
"lies to customers"
Care to explain that comment.
I have been in this project from the beginning and have not been lied to ever.
Unless your referring to the other project(which I know nothing about)
Quoted from jgentry:It will be done when it's done. I'm in on the game and would love to have it now but I'll be perfectly fine waiting a few more months while any bugs are worked out.
Anyone that preorders a pinball machine from any startup is crazy if they think it will be delivered on time. History has proven that delays will happen with every one of these. If you preorder this is what you sign up for. At least we know the game is coming and have seen the demo games unlike many other preorders. It won't be long now, compared to what other companies are going through a 6 month delay is nothing.
I totally agree.
When I preordered one last October and in July paid it in full. I knew it would be at very best Christmas but most likely January or February. Shit happens!
I just want the best possible machine with most of the bugs and imperfections taken care of.
From the sound of it that's what I'll be receiving.

What no Coin Mechs!
When did this go down!
That's it I'm cancelling my order and using that money to possibly become a Hooters Waitress !
Boy I wish one day when I look at this thread it would be something new and fresh!
Not just s@&t we have all heard before; Many,many times before.
Makes me laugh every time I look at this thread to see if there is any MMRLE updates and again same guy stirring up the $#|t.
I have been in this project from the beginning and have had no problem with Rick and communication.
If I have a question I send him an email and then he responds with an answer .
Have done this several times through this whole process and not once has Rick never responded.
I'm sure all MMRLE participants have had the same experience.
Imo Rick has done a great job on this project and I wish him all the success in future projects.
Rick's focus is to insure that MMRLE is a tremendous success and to do that sometimes takes time.
Now return to your regular programming !
I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas.
I guarantee we all will have a wonderful New Year when MMRLE arrives on our your doorstep.
I'm just waiting patiently no need to get in a huff over something I have no control over.
Don't Worry be Happy! 
Quoted from RobT:Shame on you guys for quoting a post from PPS website!!
I'm sure you will have a PM from Rick asking you to remove it very soon.
"...getting the transitions exactly as original (plasma vs led/lcd) will never be exact. Again, if you expect exact, then this is not the game for you."
I am absolutely shocked with this comment also.
We are paying a premium price. We should be getting a premium product.
If this tearing shows up in the machine that gets shipped to me. I'll just ship it back collect and demand to not ship me one until the problem is rectified.
Mine is Black Trim so I'm not getting it for a while. Maybe the problem will be fixed by the time they get to Black Trim

Quoted from Superhero:Can someone just answer the simple question on how to get a MMR , cost, and expectation on delivery
Thank you
Expectation on delivery -Sometime in the near future.
Quoted from Elvisinmypants:MM and MMR are not the same they 20 some years apart MMr is a remake or a replica time will value it as such. It is like the difference between a Ferrari and a Firebird with a Ferrari shaped body, they may look the same and both do the same things, but under the hood they are very different. Their collector values are also different, you can say they are the same and you can say your toilet is a Space Ship.
On another note, people should only be able to add machines they actually posses into their collections, I wish this could be verified somehow. You can you collect an aspiration and imaginations but they shouldn't be counted.
I thought the misalignment shield artwork on the start button was going to be addressed.
Can anybody shed some light on that.
Also In Plabito's review of MMRLE he confirmed screen tearing on the castle multiball sequence.
Now we know it truly exists lapnip can use his expertise and correct this issue.
Am i right lapnip?
Quoted from underlord:I don't think he saw an eminent divorce coming when MMRLE was announced back when.
Ordering the machine probably was the last straw.
Quoted from Riles:Whats the new start date?
-Riles
Does it really matter. They just keep changing it.
I can tell you that it's not me. I'm all paid up in full back in July. Black Trim ordered. I'm not even in the first 250. Probably there doing all USA orders first. Who knows?
At least they are finally in production. Can't wait to finally add it to my gamesroom.
I promise when I do get it that I will post a complete video of unboxing and play review.

Quoted from indypinhead:I wish JJP would contact me soon.
I've been paid in full since july 3rd.
So much for believing Jack when he says first to pay, first to play.
I'll never fall for that again...no more payments to JJP up front....EVER.
I'm in the same boat but now the way the Canadian Dollar has been pounded I'm now in a very good position so I can't complain.
I chose black trim so I"m not until the next batch or later.
I'm also a JJP buyer paid in full back in July. I'm in Canada where our dollar is getting pounded.
This project has taken long enough that paying early has saved me a lot of money!
So right now I'm a happy camper. I think choosing the Black Trim is the reason I'll be one of the later ones to get a machine. It has been such a long wait anyways whats another few months.
I'll probably end up getting my TBL around the same time now. Nothing wrong with that!
Quoted from Skypilot:One hundred pages and still no game.
91 pages on Hobbit Update . Still no game. It's delayed another 3 months!
S!#t happens!
