The playfield to me just looks like there isn't much going on. None if those photos get me excited. Could this be Elwin's first BOMB?

There's 5 shots on the lower playfield plus the mini-playfield 2 ball paths, the boat shot & chum bucket in this game besides 3 drop targets & the moving shark fin. I'm sure it will shoot good....the Pro Model looks like a Homepin. I think if you asked Elwin he's probably disappointed in the finished product of this machine compared to his 4 other machines.

I think it will be fun to play but there's not enough going on in the game to make this one a machine for the home collector to add to their collection.

With Harry Potter & Back to the Future coming hopefully this year.....I'm out on JAWS!

FOMO is officially dead!

They can say all the LE's are SOLD OUT but you will see LE's appearing all over in the weeks ahead...."Oh we got another LE if anyone is interested" That basically is the distributor saying...well I can't upsell this one on the secondary market for $15,000.

Probably Eric, but fun to imagine Steve really getting into it...[quoted image]

Well the gameplay stream for JAWS looks good but it's definitely not a Show-Stopper Must-Buy Pinball machine like Godzilla was! I'll say it's cool but the lack of shots in the game 5 main shots is a real downer for me. The Upper playfield looks almost pointless to the game....it's like they just threw it in there to make it different than the Pro Model.

This is Elwin's 3rd best machine during his time at Stern....all of them very enjoyable designs but JAWS is just ok for me.....and I love the theme and musical score from John Williams which gets your heart pumping......looking forward to playing one on location! The 3D thing is just a GIMMICK!

1.)Godzilla
2.) Jurassic Park
3.) JAWS
4.) Iron Maiden
5.) Avengers Infinity Quest

If that stream did anything it removes all sales of LE's by Flippers & Distros who were going to sell it sideways into the secondary market for $15,000+. I think it's a nice looking game but you already have people pulling their orders for JAWS LE. FOMO is officially DEAD! It's an average Elwin pin at best!
