Quoted from JLebowski:

It's gotta be a parts issue. Why else would they switch to making the more basic SE's on the line as seen on Instagram? Isn't the SE the lowest demand & lowest profit margin version?

My guess is that JJP wants to get a couple hundred of each game model out in the public so that these early buyers can be the beta testers for the game and see if there are any issues with any of the parts or mechs before placing big parts orders once demand is known.

Quoted from bng73:

Does anyone know how JJP is staffing their factory? Don't forget - they just moved production from NJ to Chicago. How many people from the manufacturing line got relocated? I'm guessing a few managers - and maybe nobody else. GnR is the first new pin they're making in the new facility. How long does it take to hire and train workers? How many workers are needed to hit a production level of 50 games per week? 100? And now - I bet they are competing with Stern for manpower - if you were an hourly laborer with this kind of training already - I am sure you would be sought after by the one other guy that needs you. Behind the scenes, the need for labor has to be a big issue.

The best and most efficient way to know this is to count the number of microwaves in the employee breakroom. I believe the formula is similar to the following: Total number of Microwaves X 2.5 = The output of pinball machines per day
