I'm looking forward to hitting drop targets for most of the 28 modes

This whole experience has been a total let down. No code or lip stick can improve on hitting nothing but drop targets the entire time! And having to hear them clicking while playing would drive me crazy

Quoted from JerseyJack:

There is a lot to the Hobbit™ that you cannot see -
How will all 15 targets work in the rules.
How the action button on the front molding controls features of the game - Smaug's Tail diverter that's on the ramp - how Smaug™ - how his speech taunts you and causes you to lose your ball. The depth of play, rules and modes - so much going on.
I receiven an e mail from a theater operator this morning for a quote on 86 games!! That's amazing to me and what we really want to see - more pinball on location.
We were bashed on the development of WOZ - I believe this is more game than WOZ!

I"m sorry Jack... But the basic layout and main toys have been shown,. If all you have to add are some aesthetic mods (including a LCD), then you've really lost me as a sale. I can't stop thinking how any code can make this layout with really nothing more than hitting drop targets interesting. It seems uneventful and thus boring to me. And I could care less about a dragon talking to me... how about real gameplay interaction as promised!

Quoted from Hazoff:

Man I wish TBL lovers would go back to the second coming TBL threads and stay away from Hobbit threads, I mean I doubt half these guys are even buying the pin.

I'm a concerned Hobbit buyer who thinks TBL blew it away. I'm supposed to be getting one of the first pins off the line, so I'm really trying to figure out if I should stay in or get out. I paid a premium when trading for this spot with CraZ4Pin. If somebody offered me cash for my spot right now I'd take it. It just makes me sad it went this way...just so disappointed and can't see how code can make this better

OK I'll try to think of a positive comment....
The lip sync of the Smaug toy is very accurate when talking.

Thanks...

Quoted from John_in_NC:

Seems silly the argument that there will be boring mode variations on a drop target, target, scoop, ramp & lane game vs a ramp, target & lane game like LOTR. Granted LOTR has far fewer modes than TH will have but the variations with the far fewer possible shots/combos on LOTR are nothing short of brilliant. Add the extra variables on TH of drops, scoops user controlled ramp diverter and it creates near infinite variation possibilities, not just hit this drop, that drop. Get real guys! Repetition can be fun too, who does not like getting loop champion on HS2?


I didn't pay for a modern EM. I paid for Smaug to eat my balls and sh#t them out his ass

They're all jealous that I got a special invite to JJP when the final product is ready for production. Considering my pin will be the 15th off the line, I need to know if this really will be all that or just as I see it now, crap.

Quoted from Rarehero:Did you…did you just jizz on TaTa?
