IMO CGC has three games about ready to produce - CCr, MBr and CVr. All have an issue to resolve, so whichever happens first will be first. However it is also my opinion that the other two will be announced once ready. Leading them to be make all three games simultaneously. Save your pennies folks, come this Fall it could be open manufacturing season at CGC factory. Then in a few years, TOM and BBB will be made.

edit - with releases of CV and later TOM pinball and with the death of the prepaid model, people are guaranteed to get a newly made JPOP game with little risk when asked to pay up. That offers much needed protection and I am interested in CVr when offered.

If I had $3M to piss away, I wouldn't be starting a new pinball venture with it. Lots of easier ways to invest and live a stress free life. Now, if I had $10M to piss away and a desire to start a new business and didn't mind it crashing and burning, I would become a pinball manufacturer.

I'd buy a TOTANw - which is an upgraded widebody design. Otherwise TOTANr would play the same as all TOTAN's, which is it feels too squeezed in on the sides. Game would really open up with a widebody amount of space, otherwise it would not be a buy for me. I'd gladly play any that came at me bro.

BBBR +1

I've been thinking about that possibility for awhile too. Wonder if they'll host a five-days-of-CGC soon? Where CGC reveals FIVE new complete remakes. Which ones you ask? All the good ones mentioned, of course. Oh Boy!!

#3. MBr Delayed until Oct 2019.
#4. TOTANr Sep 2018
#5. CVr Feb 2019

purely speculation. People were guessing when #3 would come out. I added my take

Have you heard the one about the manufacturer who delayed releasing their pinball machine remake by one year, so they could polish the code? Wouldn't want to be first pinball manufacturer to do that. something else is up with MBr and it's probably very minor, but is still a roadblock. That is where I think another title or two will precede it. I'd probably be ready to pick up TOTANr or CVr next summer.

Yoo-hoo - 3 levels of MB - Std, LE and Collector, just like AFM. Looking forward to seeing the enhancements from CGC. Might have to cave on this game and buy one.

So ... it will be worth the wait and it was executed superbly.... Got just the info I needed, will be ordering once available.

Let's discuss the elephant in the room, which versions come with a large color dmd? CE & LE but not STD?

If Munsters ships before Monster Bash remake .... MBr sales will be doa, around 1k machines. Had these come out a year earlier, they probably could have sold three times that number. The result of these delays have caused me to lose interest, just as I have for ACNC. Meanwhile my excitement for Munsters (not even shown) is sky high.

What can help MBr sales and increase demand - reversing decision to not update code, offering larger dmd or releasing an exclusive interactive topper. With none of those things .... it will still be a brand new, top 5 game - that will look beautiful and play smoothly. Once the game is revealed and starts shipping, it will be a good time to take a fresh look, maybe becoming excited aboot it again.

Can someone instagram the pics & price matrix? I must have missed them in the official CGC #3 Monster Bash thread. Orders are rolling in, so people must know what they are getting, right? Not looking for early renderings nor fake #2 pics, must be legit.

Color dmd right? Topper on high end model only, right? Priced around 8.5kish?

wow, amazing!

Nobody has mentioned TOM in awhile but I think the next three remakes are (MB, CC and TOM). as to the order, it could be any of them. I will pass on MBr, while I hope to pick up CVr or TOMr.

JPOP’s games are da bomb but TOTAN doesn’t have enough demand.

What’s the pricing?

No, it’s a big deal. You write this off as a reboot, but think what a buyer is getting for their nib purchase. They'll see great artwork on pf, cabinet, translite, plastics and it is all cohesive and the colors are rich. They get a tried and true layout from B/W era and a game that is 100% coded and bug free. Music and callouts are good and game has Good Humor. Everything you would ask for in a new pin. Then get a Large DMD, Colorized dots AND New hi-def Dots. The game has all kinds of upgrades including painted figures.

This MBrLE stands out as an LE of the highest order. This may be the nicest LE released to date by anyone. It is badass and it is $8k, or buy the classic for $6k. A lot of MBr’s will be sold.

Time we talk monstergate. While the topper on MBr is nice, anybody notice the absence of some of the less desirable band members? Mummy, Werewolf and Creech where are U? Guess they weren’t invited to the party at the topper saloon. So if CGC is considering additional projects ... how about finishing the MBr topper and make it available as a mod to the topper? And then give us something brilliant to sit atop MMr.
