I love the magna slings. They are WAY more interesting than normal slings and add a lot of fun to the game in my opinion. I hope they're on a lot more games in the future.

Quoted from Mitch:I have unboxing pics and inserts are perfect. 50 plays and 2 days later and not anymore .
Would waiting longer to unbox have helped? Give the clear more time to harden?

I had a good conversation with my distributor this evening. He said he was in Chicago earlier this week for a billiards/game room expo. While there he was able to go over to Stern and had an exciting tour. He got to meet Gary and see all the GBLEs out on the line. So, they seem to be moving along again. Hopefully it will be a couple of weeks and mine will be in!
Sweet! Looks like you'll be getting yours before mine. Would love to come over and help unbox it.
Quoted from MT45:Just got the same email fom Trent .... great news! GBLE on the way!!
Great news, Trent's server is fixed and the emails are flooding out now. Turns out Stern has been producing GBLE's this whole time, and with Tilt Amusement not supplying addresses, there was nowhere for Stern to ship them. 
Congrats to those getting their GBLE's and soon Premium orders will be filled. 
Quoted from VolunteerPin:Sweet! Looks like you'll be getting yours before mine. Would love to come over and help unbox it.
You and Andrew will be the first people I call! 
Quoted from rockrand:I will give a grand to anybody with a game shipping now ,and my paid for game from refinery,I am sick and tired of waiting
Quoted from rockrand:A Grand for a few weeks more of waiting,come on lets get it done
Wow..good deal
Quoted from rockrand:A Grand for a few weeks more of waiting,come on lets get it done
Welp! I would offer my GBLE up but I have no freaking idea when it will be here 
Quoted from rockrand:I will give a grand to anybody with a game shipping now ,and my paid for game from refinery,I am sick and tired of waiting
What were you paying refinery to do to your order?
Quoted from Trekkie1978:I can't believe the delay Stern is having on getting these out.
Yup delay is nuts never thought I would have to wait in till august and premium better keep there fingers crossed for september.
Quoted from Flato:Yup delay is nuts never thought I would have to wait in till august and premium better keep there fingers crossed for september.
If the delay is due to them fixing a defect, then I have no problem waiting.
Quoted from rockrand:I was sick and tired of waiting almost 4 and.1/2 months is long enough,I would not be a good jjp pre order buyer
Did I not tell you this morning that all LE's would be done by the end of this week? lol Congrats. Mine will be here Thurs Morning. Now let's hope the end run was worth the wait and has spectacular playfields....lol
Quoted from Manimal:Did I not tell you this morning that all LE's would be done by the end of this week? .lol
Not so fast! Plenty of us LE buyers still out there with no word from our distro's on when our GBLE's will ship.
Option A - Get pin NOW and bitch about insert ghosting and who knows what the F else
Option B - Let Stern reject shit play fields, fix the problems, have it delayed a bit, and we get our pristine ANAL perfect pins, yeah? 
Which one?
I'm guessing wait and stfu? 
Quoted from Manimal:I understand that, but I'm betting you will hear very shortly.
That's a happy thought; I hope I get the call soon!

Good point Ice!
Quoted from Concretehardt:Good point Ice!
Unfortunately we do not have the option to pick but I hope Stern is picking option b.

I plan on owning this game for a very long time...what's a few week wait?
Quoted from Trekkie1978:I plan on owning this game for a very long time...what's a few week wait?
No doubt, if we are all paying close to $8k for a GBLE, I hope we own it for a very LONG time.
In a HUO environment you better love it right? Happy endings.
And as we all know, if you don't, and you go to sell it, what's the first thing potential buyers will want to know? Insert ghosting? Production date? F up play field? Etc.
The theme, artwork, layout are home runs for most of us.
Now Dwight has to bring this thing home and make it a MASTERPIECE like Lyman does every time. Right? Yep.
Quoted from iceman44:Now Dwight has to bring this thing home and make it a MASTERPIECE like Lyman does every time. Right? Yep.
yep. lightshows are almost there now. rules are very nice for a production release IMHO. still a ways to go, but as popular as this game is, i'm sure it will be spit shined codewise.
I got the call the other day that my GBLE was ready to ship but unfortunately had to postpone delivery to the beginning of August since I'll be traveling for work.
But what a cool "welcome home" gift it will be!
Mine will be here this coming Monday. Unfortunately, I will likely sell it NIB as I just listed my home and bought another home with no room for pins. Will likely be selling the collection.
Does anyone know where I can get some "free play' cards for the GBLE? I've seen some on some pinhead's Youtube videos that has the cool, green slime effect on them, but I can't find them anywhere on the web. Any Help? Thanks in advance!
I called Automated yesterday and they simply told me they are waiting to here from Stern "any day".
Very specific, I know! 
Quoted from Rockytop:I love the magna slings. They are WAY more interesting than normal slings and add a lot of fun to the game in my opinion. I hope they're on a lot more games in the future.
Same here. They provide some pretty great moments. They go totally crazy during the multiball modes and you get some stuff happening that's not possible in any other game.

Quoted from Ed209:Just found out mine is getting delivered this afternoon! #34
You think you would have known at least a day in advance?
