Just got to play one in the wild! It’s as awesome as I expected.

Yup! Love Reboot!

1UP on Colfax in Denver has a CCR.

Agreed. I have a spot beside my IJ reserved for CCr LE whenever it arrives. I’m so excited to get this game.

I got the mirror backglass email from PPS as well. It says you can order it at midnight tonight. Does anyone know if that’s Eastern time or some other time zone?

Speculation is just that…speculation. You probably know as much as anyone else about whether CC will hold or increase in value in the future. The best advice I’ve heard from anyone on this subject is when a fellow Pinsider said “don’t buy these games as investments. Buy the games you want to play and use them for that purpose.” If your game goes up in value in the future, great. If not, who cares? You bought it because you enjoy it. That should be all that matters.

I’m in the same boat as you…been wondering the same thing. My mirror backglass is sitting here waiting for my CCR LE to arrive (whenever that will be), and I’m worried about putting it on the game when it arrives. Please keep me posted as to how you do it, so I’ll have some insight before I try it. Thanks.

Thank you

That’s great news. Thanks for letting me know. I’m anxious to get my game so I can do the same.

It’s funny for me to see that…brings back memories. We had those books laying all around the house when I was a kid. My brother was obsessed with them. I think he had the whole set.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

So they DO exist!

So a pinsider selling his CCR LE for $12,700 claims it will be arriving next week. Anyone want to speculate on how this is possible? Or should we just straight up call B.S.?

If real it seems we’d be hearing a helluva lot more about it. I think they’re screwing with us.

Great! I’m looking forward to seeing your unboxing pics.

Well said. I completely agree.

I’m in the same boat. I’ve been psyched about this game since getting in on an LE day one. I put the money aside for it, where it’s been sitting ever since. During the wait some very cool games have come up so I’ve been trading out games I really liked for new ones with themes I love…but damn, that money has been sitting there waiting on CCr for 14 months when it could’ve kept me from having to get rid of something I really liked. Oh…first world problems!!!!

I agree. I’ve been buying pins for the home since 2003. I put one on a credit card many years ago and it took forever to get it paid off. I vowed then that I’d never do it again. Interestingly I bought three games from The Pinball Company (before their prices went sky high) on layaway. Each time it took me between 18 and 24 months to pay them off, but I just treated it like another bill, faithfully sending in my payments every month until paid off. Now I have full collection, so when I want a new game I do some trading/bartering. My point is…getting these games is awesome. I love this hobby, but going into debt to do it is a very bad idea.

You guys jump all over jfh so much. Given how you obviously feel about him and his administration of this thread, I honestly don’t understand why you keep checking in. Why don’t you just leave this thread? You could start your own CGC complaint thread. You’d certainly get a lot of traffic with so many buyers being frustrated by CGC’s continued delays. The rest of us want to come here and have our excitement over this game bolstered, not shit upon.

I disagree with the previous opinion about Rush. Growing up I was never much of a fan of the band, so when the pin was announced I figured I’d be immune to the dreaded FOMO on this one. But when I played it on location I was impressed. Then I played it some more at other locations that weren’t so loud and I could better hear it. I played it at seven or eight different locations, I think. All the while it kept growing on me. I finally bit the bullet and got a Rush Premium, -and…holy shit…the game is freaking awesome! Every time I stop playing it I want to play more, and the code updates keep making it better and better.

Now, as for CCR. I placed my order on an LE day one. I’m still waiting for it to show up!!! But I have played the LE version and the non-topper versions at different locations. It’s definitely a great game and I’m anxious to add it to my collection. But at this point I’d have to say that I prefer Rush Premium over CCR. This is just my opinion, so take it for what it’s worth. I’m sure that you’ll be happy with whichever game you choose. Good luck.

Congratulations! It gives me hope that mine might be coming some day. I have to admit…this wait is getting painful. I’m very glad to see that you finally got yours.

My email from Sara today said my wait is an additional 2 to 3 months…so there’s that, I guess.

I just got the long-anticipated email from Sara at PPS. She said my LE should be ready for shipping some time next week! Yay! For those who’ve been waiting, keep the faith. The games are coming.

I paid my deposit to PPS about two weeks before you paid yours, and my game is currently on its way. I paid the remainder of my balance last Thursday. Hopefully yours will come soon.

Hopefully you’ll hear soon. My understanding is that they rotate among distributors. So once they’ve assigned this batch to PPS they move on to the next distributor for the next batch and so on down the line until they return to PPS. Maybe you’ll be in the next round. Of course I could be wrong about how they do it.

Nearly a year and a half of waiting and CC LE is finally home. Sara at PPS was AWESOME to deal with. The game was packed perfectly, arrived in pristine shape. I’m a happy cowboy!
