Don’t think there will be anything to do w/ Lazenby, metoo will get him - and for probably good reason too.
What a dingus.

Quoted from NeilMcRae:To be 100% clear (and apologies for any confusion) - No they did not lie - Stern 100% pulled it to show respect of the Queen and the British people - a tough decision but in my view the right decision.
I think you said you had friends involved in leaked photo fiasco, and if the other thread I read is correct it sounds like a super sucky, unfun mess involving nothing but good intentions. I hope they hang in there -- life is tough enough without pinball stress.

Quoted from NeilMcRae:Such a shame that what should have been an epic day for pinball in the UK was ruined - I was told that the leaked photos where the reason they pulled the game. Very disappointing. And those that came from far distances I really feel for - and Stern and Electrocoin, John is a very nice man and was very upset today.
Seth was a nice guy and he says they will move on from this and they have a few other plans for 007 events!
Which one is it Neil?

Quoted from zaphX:Yeah, I sold my $2500 deposit for $500.
Ouch - that hurts

That’s a bitter pill to swallow, but many more are going to be losing more than that on TS4. There have been many for sale trying hard to get out. Fortunately, Stern does not force a non refundable deposit, because their products sell well without coercion.
Quoted from NeilMcRae:hmm, its one of the less good bond movies.
I think we can all agree ole Rog was getting a little long in the tooth for the role at this point!!!
And dressing Bond up like a literal clown has to be an all-time humiliation.
let's face it... all this bickering about art packages, toy mechanics, model differences, film choices. yet, in about 6 months time, 70% of y'all will own one of these, already have a life-size bond figurine on top of the backbox, installed a genuine Walther PPK as the shooter rod, and somehow found a way to illuminate the tilt bob with LED's. All while voting it into the top 10 of all time. So let's just cut past all the BS, and wait for the game to arrive!

Cut past all the BS? This thread doesn't get to 38 pages in 8 days without the BS. Pinside doesn't have 70% of its daily posts with the BS.
In all seriousness though, your post nailed it.
Didnt realize there were that many TS4 haters out there, havent played one yet. Maybe I could ask JJP for a discount on my order since Im assuming not selling well.
Quoted from zaphX:Yeah, I sold my $2500 deposit for $500.
Quoted from zaphX:... leaving my distro holding the bag for a purchase decision I changed my mind on was not something I was willing to do.
Quoted from NeilMcRae:I took a similar punch on a spooky game, but my distro is a good guy and I don't like to let people down.
Honestly, these are a couple of stand-up guys.
Can we just get a pinball machine based off this music video? Maybe add this one too"
And to stay on topic I have to agree the sideart looks absolutely stupid and childish. I get that it's from the poster but there's a LOT of other Bond posters that don't look like they came out of a cereal box for kids. Might as well just put a beanie on his head. Reminds me of MAD magazine to be honest.
Quoted from J85M:Gun barrel topper would be cool and a classic bond moment that never gets old.
[quoted image]
Whoever came up with that idea was a genius.
I think Moore's opening was the best, nice and smooth. Every time I went to see a new Bond film in the theater, that was the most anticipated scene for me.
Having said that, I love the Dr. No one the most (one up above) - with the dot expanding and the ambient instruments.

Exactly how I feel the gun barrell and opening credits is something I always look forward too.
Having it as the topper would be great, I would never get bored of seeing it move, anything other than flat static plastics would be welcome though.
Maybe a DB with spinning tyre shredders and pop up bullet proof screen, little guns out the head lights, finished off with a man and seat that can pop up out of the roof
I have a toy story ce. It’s awesome you guys are missing out. You can see my list I only have the top tier games. If you are a pro player no, but for average players it’s great and I understand what I’m shooting towards.
Did anything come out of the Stern factory picture ?It had the back of playfield with the subways in the background .Basically did anyone mirror it with these leaked pictures ?
This is the ball one launch shot on Sega's Goldeneye game only its in red. The game has a gun handle and you need to shoot him first as he's turning to shoot you.
Its pretty cool and a fun game with some of the ideas being talked about here. Check out Goldeneye some time if you find one.

I don’t think anyone says it’s not fun. The not the IP people wanted and for $15k (now $13-$13.5) it’s just not worth the $$. Pretty happy I was able to get out of my CE before I had to take a big loss on it.

Yes, the new rule should be no posts until you have your game in hand.
Make it so.

Okay I’ve decided to cancel my Bond order if they make a pinball machine around this video! Lol.
All I know is that the LE better have some hot chicks in the artwork.
Where’s the Bond girls bodies?
This is why the last 70’s Ballys had the best artwork. Lol.
Quoted from bigehrl:...and somehow found a way to illuminate the tilt bob with LED's.
Tilt bob cam needs to be a thing on streams. I've been saying it forever. The tension! The drama! The near misses!

Quoted from freddy:You guys laugh but iam starting to like the pro cabinet .
Me too-- think we can talk em into swapping cabinets? 
Quoted from freddy:You guys laugh but iam starting to like the pro cabinet .
A yellow cabinet could look badass, just have to wait and see it in official pictures. But then again I'm that weirdo that likes the Pro versions of Zeppelin and Rush cabinet art best so make of that what you will.

...likewise I'm the weirdo that likes Roger Moore best with The Spy Who Loved Me, For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy, and View To A Kill being my all time favorites. Then again I saw three of those in the theatre as a kid which could have a lot to do with it.
Quoted from freddy:You guys laugh but iam starting to like the pro cabinet .
That's it. Something bad's happening around Philly.
Your mom's getting scared. Says you're movin' with your auntie and uncle in bel air.

It won't be but it would be cool if the attract mode screens are a mix of the "girls swimming in shadow" scenes from all the opening sequences.

Preorders in an Alternate Universe...

Hard to tell what’s going on there. The pro definitely has a plastic on the PF there but the premium appears to be a clear panel. The diver may be on top of PF but I have a feeling there is something beneath.
