Sinking ship like Stern potc might work too, but I'm betting it's an Elwin original mech on this game. Almost feel let down if it's not.

Quoted from Vino:

Will it move? real water?

This may be Baby Yoda 2.0. "Does the shark move", "Yes it has to move for these prices", "No it doesn't move", "Stern is keeping the shark moving a surprise by not including it on the feature matrix".

Quoted from GCS2000:

Guess I will need to set my extra 2k aside for the lackluster topper they will release a year from now as well.

Meanwhile, here's a $10.00 place holder to make the wait easier.

There was some rumor of reusing parts from old machines, if true, after the Bond SLE is Stern taking some liberties with Elwin's fame that they shouldn't?

Oh and here's a Jaws mod of Fish Tales to bide the time, and also confuse the hell out of people.

Time to get the unrealistic expectations going!
Actual water under the playfield with projection mapped 3-d shark projection animations!

It's not in a pinball cab.

The whole thing is built into a boat with a 300hp motor.

sometimes when someone comes to pick up a machine from me they go, "damn... what do you do for a living".

Will we see art in this style?

#809 3 months ago

So what’s the Jaws acronym going to be?

J?

#810 3 months ago

I've been hoping for fins below the playfield that rise up and down in sequence in a few different locations to replicate a shark swimming around the pin.

#811 3 months ago

Honestly my idea for the topper I will get one of these models and maybe add some led strips under the shark to add some glow and call it a day.

#813 3 months ago

Done this the last few releases and have had good luck with it, so here we go again. I'm a newish distributor based out of Cheyenne WY. So my list of LEs buyers is still growing etc. So i will have a few extra LEs. Of course i will also have Pros and Premiums. If anyone is interested and you werent able to get one with your normal distro, hit me up.

Super excited for this one. Elwin is the goat. Happy hunting everyone!

Wonder if they’ll find a way to put goats in the game like in JP and Godzilla.

Would have to go with the 2 foot version as the others would all be too big.

Right I am just saying I think that’s the concept I think I might go with that would look pretty cool on it.

Yep and most likely better than anything Stern will put out there

#823 3 months ago

I had this made for my wife for her birthday about 4 years ago. It hangs in our game room.

It is animated as well. Can't post a video only a pic

Looks like iceman44 was right on teaser today

Not much of a teaser right?

Just repeated what I was told.

This must be the new method of generating FOMO. Show nothing, a few bubbles.

Quoted from acedanger:

I'm guessing re-skinned version of Rolling Stones except instead of Mick it will be a Jaws fin.

Please no Big Buck Mick...

#826 3 months ago

Anyone know where I can get a jaws Le with no tax to Illinois?

Quoted from Medic:

Maybe Zach at Flippin Out?

#828 3 months ago

I hope it has V haul bottom that floats instead of legs

#829 3 months ago
Quoted from Pinkitten:

JWS. sAves time.

If we're that lazy to type out the full name, we should at least hire a proper team of contractors to get this abbreviation right.

#830 3 months ago

Dupe

#831 3 months ago
Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:

Time to get the unrealistic expectations going!

It has a colorful cartoon art style that makes it blend in from a distance with the past several games released by Stern.

#832 3 months ago

Please have great art. This theme is a must for me. I unfortunately will have to wait until 2025 unless I sell Deadpool. Game has to blow my socks off for that to happen.

#833 3 months ago

Texas Pinball Festival is going to be here soon, play it in person, make a educated buying decision.
Always play first.
I'm waiting to play Jaws and Looney Tunes before buying my next pin.

Make an educated buying decision, never. This is pinball.

There has to be a Fishing with Dynamite mode!

#836 3 months ago

I guess soon we will see if Stern jumped the shark.

#837 3 months ago

OK time to list your modes:

"Argue with the Mayor"
"Get slapped by bereaved mom"
"panic on the beach!!!"
"Slap the Seagull"
"Drink on the boat"
"Search the Stomach!"

There really isn't that much action in this movie is there?!

You forgot:
"skinny dip at night"
"chum the waters"
"tell war stories"

#839 3 months ago

Another mode:
'Getting to know your ship' or 'setting sail'

Then quote:
"Front bow, back stern, can't get that right squirt I will throw your a$$ out the little round window on the side!"

I always thought that quote was funny.

Not as much as Congo.

Monkey fight!

Fight the white gorilla!
Oh no, bugs!
Look out, Zinj!

It’s Stern’s new drip feed method of hype. FOMO is dying so they need to build it up before release.

Game exchange has LEs up…no idea if this ends up being har to get, but they are a good distributor.

You have it backwards.
Eat the skinny dipper.
Break the dock.
Cause the beach to be closed.
Get the dumb humans to kill the wrong shark.
Eat the guy in the rowboat.
Ram the orca.
Escape the harpoon and barrels.
Eat quint.
Sink the orca.

"Give us a Kiss" Multiball

https://gameexchange.biz/next-stern-le

DEPOSIT IS NON REFUNDABLE - NON TRANSFERABLE TO ANOTHER GAME. FIRM. Unless you are absolutely sure you want a game DO NOT place this deposit
$1000 TRANSFER FEE WILL APPLY FOR ALL GAMES BEING TRANSFERRED TO DIFFERENT PERSON

With these terms no thanks.

Yes I want the game and will follow through with my order but man that is some steep deposit terms.

Pretty standard on a stern game that’s about to come out..it’s not like preordering a CGC or even a JJP, these are gonna ship pretty quickly and I think distributors have to pay for them now. I don’t really view this as a preorder given the timeline. Once the game is revealed there really isn’t much time to change your mind at this point anyway. Obviously waiting until the game is actually revealed is the safest thing to do, but who knows how many options will be out there at that point. Market is so hard to predict with this being Elwin Jaws.

#850 3 months ago

So it would appear there are no price increases on the premiums and the LEs, based upon the Game Exchange website.

There is, however, no price listed for a pro. Maybe they are bumping that up a few hundred bucks?

Let's talk some pinball pricing!
