Quoted from PeterG:becasue it is that good.......
No seriously, I think this was another model Stern used (Premium, LE, SLE) where another party in this case Cassandra was involved getting a piece of the pie. Same like BM66 an dBeatles where Kapow is involved. Stern is doing this sometimes, liek with Star Wars, LE was more expensive than other LE's in that time.
All the music pins were $7699. How would Cassandra get a bigger piece of pie than say Led Zep or Iron Maiden? Or is the housing market really that hot?
Quoted from ItsBwalt:Does anyone know of any good distributors that still have a ehoh premium available for the next run? I’ve been looking but yet to find one
Try calling http://pinballs.com/
I have my order in with them
How many games will be produced next month? I have heard Stern can produce about 50 games per day once they are all tooled up and rolling. If its a 2 week run that would be about 500 games in total assuming they don’t work weekends in production, if its mon - sat shifts then 600 games.
I am super excited to have my order in.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:April build ain’t happening if you ask me.
See my earlier post and this...

I live in southern cali and our coastline is filled with freighters offshore waiting to come in. It looks like from Long beach down to San Diego is packed. I can only assume its going the other way toward Santa Barbara too. Lets hope our Longshoreman kick ass at unloading those things and get industry rolling.

JP premiums were shipping out very recently, April build dates. Maybe they will be right on schedule? Expect the worst and hope for the best
I was told mid April by Stern and Distributor a month ago. I think its a small run so just depends on who you are buying it from.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:Ya’ll should just settle this by posting your high scores on EHOH. Whoever wins, wins and then you can both shut up haha.
I never get involved in lovers quarrels

Not that I am overly excited but... I have already bought the blades, shooter, and shaker motor. I wake up every morning and check if I have an email from my distributor requesting payment before I even get out of bed.
Quoted from isJ:If you don't care about money, see anything in my collection you wanna buy?
Now that I look at your collection... I have thought about getting El Dorado as my only em, have you been happy having it or is it the neglected step child that everyone ignores?

Different distributors have different orders. Not all distributors ordered. Stern did verify to me that the one I ordered thru did in fact have a quantity order and to contact them for actual ship dates.
But it does seem like there is a stone wall from stern to the distributors. At this point everything is here say and no real reliable info. If the delay from other machines carried over to promised production times, they would be hitting the line this week or last. Either they start making them quick or its broken promises.
Best info will be right here when we get reports of games shipping and joining the club.

When we’re in a post covid era soon - When things get back to normal and Cassandra has an autograph session at our local collectibles megastore. Which piece of the pin do you take to get autographed? Translite or Apron or something else?

I noticed in April the shooter rod and blades were available. I had EHoH on order for the April/May run so I purchased it all then.
Check out the prices now! Shooter rod price almost doubled. Blades went up 10. Same price on shaker but out of stock. I feel like a genius about now.
The Shoot price is kind of shocking. 89.99 to 169.99

Its for late model sam system and all modern spike system.
Edit … crud I did get wrong one. Oops. It uses a different harness. Hope stern will sell me the harness and avoid all the shipping.
Quoted from Utesichiban:Thanks. I will do that. Ive already spent hours, though, trying to figure out everything going wrong with my NIB game. I'm busy with work and life so if Im honest, my patience is starting to wear thin.
What does your distributor say? They should be contacting Stern and going to bat for you. Honestly they should send a tech to your home to deal with it.
Agreed but his pin is new and under warranty. Based on symptoms they should be sending him new node boards to swap out and a phone call or email thread with tech support.
Quoted from Pin_Fandango:Stern is not equipped to do that, they can barely handle email.
Owning these things is about rolling up your sleeves and learning how to troubleshoot, otherwise, be ready to drop thousands in time for techs by hundreds at a time.
Today's games do not require a tech really, if you know how to build a PC from parts then 99% of the issues you can solve yourself if you put in time to learn, just need to learn basic soldering and how to use a multi tester, you are ahead of the game...\\
Spike II is the most straight forward system as long as you do not have a bad board - not a lot you can do after that -
How to trouble shoot Spike II is easy:
- Flash your card
-Start the game
-Check the error
- IF electrical pinpoint the board it is connected to
-read the manual
-Check connectors
- Check voltage - see if there is any -
- Reconnect / Desolder - solder/ Re-pin
- Try again
If you are not competent however and lack attention to detail, then, it is better to stay away from the game.
Quoted from Pinkitten:These are all awesome. This is a fantastic example of a 3-pin collection. LOTR is a long-ball adventure. AFM can be more punishing if set up hard, and EHoH is just a fun, well-designed recent release. Great collection! I have my first AFM coming from AZ next week!
Thank you. I sold off one plus an arcade to finance most of Elvira. The only thing I feel I am lacking is an Elwin pin. It was a coin flip for me to get Elvira vs waiting for Maiden to run next month. I would also like to get a Meteor/Centaur/Sorcerer for an 80’s pin
Quoted from docquest:Collage.com sent me a fathers day code to get a free 30x40 fleece blanket (you still need to pay shipping and tax though). The code was "BlanketDeal". I dont if it was a code that only works if they send it to you or would work for anyone or.how lo g its active. Worth a shot if you were interested in getting one of the photo blankets.for almost free.
Thank you doc! It was automatically on there. Total price was $17.29. Great deal!

Has anyone replaced flipper bats with the scared stiff boney finger flipper bats?

I am happy to see the world come back to a somewhat normal place where Cassandra can have a fan signing.
I think it would be neat to get the apron or translight signed. She might only be signing books - flyer didn’t say. The location has tons of Elvira swag. I will try to get something signed since I am in the area.
Quoted from Mogg:Is she, alright? Is everything ok? It’s none of my business- but I’m trying to read between the lines, it appears last call is near. Tell me I’m wrong, please.
I saw her at the autograph signing in Los Angeles on Saturday and she looked amazing. She stayed and signed for every last person that showed up by 3pm.
