No Kapow logo on the teaser. Maybe stern went it alone on this one?

Any chance Gomez revives the drag strip shooter concept but instead it is a DB5 running away from a bad guy in another car? Or somehow incorporates the jet pack launching up the shooter with the ball?
Quoted from docquest:Any Felix Leiter fans? He was the American CIA agent and Bond's friend who would sometimes show up and help Bond.
He was in 4 of the Coonnery films (Dr No, Goldfinger, Thunderball, Diamonds are Forever). He was played by a different actor each time so he might not be included him because of that confusion.
Since he helps Bond in the films it would be cool if they had him help during gameplay kinda like allies in Godzilla or team-ups in Deadpool.

If it’s Dwight on code maybe he does a 2 ball team up like in turtles.
Quoted from m00nmuppet:Looks soooooo much better than those damn 90's clamphone pics. If Stern were to be pissed, it wasn't necessarily at the leak, it's that the people taking the sneak pics found one of their old phones in a drawer and decided to use that.
Exactly!
Quoted from mbrave77:there are 4 machines. Just confirmed on insider connected podcast with george. just started it
Yep. Just started listening now. 4 confirmed!
Quoted from Mr68:There has got to be a Goldfinger version coming out at some point...
It has to IMO.
On the podcast George said if the game does well he can imagine releasing a goldfinger version at a later date.
Quoted from pinmister:What do you guys plan on talking about for another month or so before games hit the wild?
-Does the jetpack do anything?
-Will someone slow down the flap on the car?
-Will someone make the rocket really move?
-Who is making the knock off scuba diver mod for Pro?
-When will Stern polish the beta code?
-Should I eat pizza for dinner tonight-or tacos?
Definitely tacos!
Quoted from CaptainNeo:the fact that the jet pack is not a controlled skill device is highly disappointing. Even capcom did it better. :/
I believe Gomez said in an interview there will be times when it is user controlled. Probably not coded yet.
Quoted from John_I:I saw a "Bonus Held" in there. Has that been in many recent games? I like the idea of bonus being a bigger part in the scoring like it used to be in the late EM and Classic SS days. Hopefully they get back to that. I have balls on my Paragon where I score more on bonus than I did in the ball itself. Deadpool is also cool the way it counts down the bonus old school. With some multipliers you can really build up some bonus. I haven't seen a bonus held in that game though.
I see it all the time on my B66. But I honestly haven’t played enough of the modern sterns long enough to know where else it shows up.
Quoted from mtp78:What you guys think of the long ball time?
I am not worried because I am nowhere near as good as Martin who has a long history as a tournament player. For average folks like me I am sure it won’t be crazy long times as we see here in the video.
Franchi talks about Bond art in the podcast he released yesterday. Good listen.

Quoted from Grantman:Thanks. Is there an approximate time to skip to in this podcast for the Bond discussion? I don't want to listen to a 2 hour long thing.
Right at 30 minutes in. Good listen. He confirms he did no pulp fiction art. Also interviews Cassandra Peterson (Elvira) and Greg Feres.
Quoted from Haymaker:Are the bond movies back on amazon prime? I was watching them, got to the end of thunderball, and then they all turned to rental only.
They still all show up as free for me. That is definitely odd.
Who is buying the new Rolls Spectre to go with their game?

Quoted from Mr68:Like many people in this thread, I've been contemplating letting my LE go. Then yesterday I got the invoice and price from my distributor. MSRP with shipping included. I'm comfortable with that, paid it and requested to be put on the Elwin SLE list.
I will approach the Bond SLE purchase in the same manner as the LE. Depends on the price. The $25 or even the $20K range is a hard no.
With invoices coming out should we expect this to be on the line and shipping soon? I would think so if full payment is being asked for.
Quoted from cooked71:Someone mentioned earlier LE’s on the line in December.
That is what I remembered. Just didn’t know if stern distros usually collect full payment that far in advance.
Quoted from MaxIsDead:Is there an owners thread yet? This place sucks
Should have one next week I am hoping. Just need an unboxing.
Quoted from TreyBo69:Someone is going to make a mod board to get that other pop to fire independently and make a small fortune.
Both pops are individually switched. How hard could it be?
Shouldn’t be crazy hard. Maybe I need to put my electrical engineering degree to good use and get this done for my game!
Quoted from CrazyLevi:I can’t wait for the first allegation that someone’s wife noticed the pop bumpers all on her own and made a big deal out of it.
It’s the next natural stage.
Do you think Stern is prepared to help pay child support and alimony when this inevitably causes irreconcilable differences that lead to divorce?
Quoted from gandamack:Are you referring to when the love rocket goes missing?
Yes. I have no doubt that thing can outperform me.
Quoted from TheClownpuncher:I want a Bond but I'm pretty nervous. Seems like the launch was rushed, limited code, no accessories (art blades), and taking forever to get any to private customers.
Factor in the price increase and I don't know what to do, even if it is a dream theme for me.
If you are factoring in an accessories to your purchase you may have awhile to wait. Rush was released almost a year ago. No art blades, expression lights, shooter or topper. Hell we haven’t even seen a GZ topper. And only a raging idiot would buy the Mando cash grab topper. For reference here is a pic of my Mando topper just as I completed the tasks to start the topper wizard mode.

I've seen a couple of laser cut ones that are cool, I'm sure some of these really creative types will come up with more. Art blades I really like (better than mirror) it's just my preference. I'm sure Tilt or someone will make them if Stern doesn't but who knows given licensing issues that could pop up.
Regardless, I'll probably get one, just not sure when. I really liked the shots and play and if they added video and such to the modes it will really shine. Hopefully they got that with the license.
Gomez did say on a podcast recently the accessories for Bond may come out quicker than we have been seeing on recent releases. I am also a fan of inner art blades. I would think Tilt will make some. Even the non LE blades will be artwork like the LE, just different artwork, and there are some folks that aren’t of fan of that.
