I like the chum bucket toy, though I kinda wish it was a buoy with a real bell like Venom. Minor nitpick.

#1553 3 months ago

instead of a match/replay screech, it should be a working fog horn ala Golden Wings air horn

EHOH had 40th, pre and now BRK.

Elvira House of Horrors has Premium, LE, SLE, 40th, and Blood Red Kiss editions.

now that my dream theme of Jaws is made, I turn my attention to retheming Resuce 911 into Blue Thunder

Quoted from Green-Machine:

I guess we will know soon enough.
Kind of looks like a jump ramp to me[quoted image]

No. It’s screwed down. It’s not a ramp. I know everyone wants it to be able to have balls go into his mouth, but it’s not happening. If it did do that why wouldn’t stern show it? You think they would hold that out and want to surprise you?

#1559 3 months ago

So, it looks like static speaker lights and barrel shooter rod are included on the LE.

Either that or they are possibly revealing accessories at launch.

#1560 3 months ago
Quoted from insight75:

Imagine Stern having to send out a mouth guard because the ball gets stuck in there? (so many "thats what she said" jokes)

All these ball jokes reminded me of Roadshow.Hit the ball into Red’s mouth at the right time and she would Yuck those taste horrible!

#1561 3 months ago

so we know what th game looks like. Stern should release now...let's go

Yes! Jump ramps have screws

A video mode where you launch balls into Jaw's mouth!

Ok, I threw-up in my mouth...but don't tell my wife, she can be such a good sport after 30 years of marriage!

#1571 3 months ago

Guys at Stern are probably laughing at the speculation on here of whether it's a Jaws ramp or not.

#1572 3 months ago

Innovation is going to be wild with this one. If you hold the machine really close to your face and then slowly back away, apparently it IS 3D!

Sadly no jump ramp in Jaws. If there was a jump rump Stern would include it in the games LE trailer which isn't the case. This is Stern, if there's something special about a spinner they make a big deal about it.

Why are you guys assuming he doesn't eat the ball? Maybe the shark moves down and Inch after bashing him and his bottom jaw will be level with the playfield. I can see them hiding optos on the sides right before the shark. You'll be bashing him

Waiting for the classic “even my wife” rant line…

“Even my wife wanted balls to go in the sharks mouth… Now, neither one of us want the game. In fact, we’ve both decided never to play pinball again!!”

It’s a jump ramp. Stern hasn’t released a video yet. Someone else has leaked a portion of a video

#1583 3 months ago

The more I look at the new high-def trailer, the more I want it. Already, got and responded to my distro advising me they will be emailing tomorrow for details on how to pay for the LE deposit tomorrow.

My response, "let's get this done today if that will hurry up delivery!! Let's get this done!!!!" Damn, I love pinball!

Because stern never leaves out showing the mechs in the LE trailers. If the game has a mech, they will show it off, they aren't hiding all kinds of cool features in their marking. Boat isn't moving around, the shark is not eating balls, there is no magic secret ramp being hidden. What is in the game is in that trailer

Quoted from TreyBo69:

I watched that when I was 11 and I think the helicopter was in the movie less than the shark was in Jaws!!

The scene where he uses stealth mode to creep on a nude chick in a condo was pretty memorable though.

Hey you guys wanted more “value” on your LEs, you got it!!! Its extra free stuff!!

Does included shooter rod, lighted speakers, and whatever else move the LE needle for anybody?

#1587 3 months ago

As an aside, I realize Robert Shaw has now been in 3 Stern games in the last year

Gomez Bond, Elwin Bond, now Jaws

I'm going to hold out hope for Jack Danger doing A Man For All Seasons pinball now

True but it’s still not happening. If it does why would Strern not show it!! It would be the best part of the game. Write your letter to Santa Claus and get it there early.

I hope you’re being sarcastic.

#1590 3 months ago

That duke kaboom ramp is surprisingly really fun. Would be cool if it were a jump ramp in jaws, but I highly doubt it. In on one either way, and cannot wait.

This is what I assume Stern would do. Not lower prices, but toss in some cheap freebies to make the sting hurt a little less

Shark goes down, boat goes down. Won’t be any balls going into the shark mouth.

I’d buy a speaker light kit and shooting rod for sure so it does add around 200 bucks in value to me. Still too expensive, but inching towards some improvement.

Forum has a certain balls fetish

Please go away. I don’t know if it has a ramp or do I even really care if it has a ramp. Just a simple observation in the similarity to a jump ramp from another game. We all have been speculating just relax and have fun! You get so emotional

Yeah, the jump ramp in Toy Story is awesome as the ball launches a good foot or more across the playfield into a continuous shot. Haven't seen anything like that in pinball. Great toy.

Hope Stern did come up with something to send the ball a 1/2 inch into Jaws mouth. Would be cool to see the shark eat the pinball.
