Quoted from PtownPin:

I have IJ mods as well....who knows maybe its Covid thats causing the shipping delays, but my HMS mod took a month....

Lior changed his shipping to a FEDEX account and usually things arrive in 2-3 days now after it leaves his hands.

#5052 3 years ago

I am in the camp of not liking any of the lockdown bar button options or the shooter skull for that matter.
Frankly I don't think I would be into any skull or flowerbush sculpt. These games are beautiful and to my eye the button and shooter sculpts aren't additive. At least none of the ones I have seen to date. How about a button sculpt like an old school front row ticket to the show torn in half around the button? And a back stage pass for the shooter sculpt?

My experience with Lior is you don't need to worry about shipping to the US. Lior has this dialed. If you like his stuff get it, you won't be disappointed and once it has been made you will get it right away. Also you should know that he is a pinball person and share's our enthusiasm for the hobby and the games.

Quoted from Gear_Grinder:So I'm not quite sure that I understand the playfield pooling issue fully as described. When I think of pooling it seems like that would happen when there is an excessive amount of the wet coating built up in an area which is allowed to dry. If my thinking is correct why does it from what I understand only happen near a post? Or could it be from a post installed before the coating is dry? Or maybe overtightened to which in both cases would squeeze the coating out and make it appear to be pooling? just trying to better understand as a first time JJP owner waiting for my GNR to arrive so I know what to look for.
Please don't put me in a corner and wear a Dunce Cap!

Can someone help explain the playfield issue better for me please?

#5055 3 years ago

Haven’t you seen all the pictures?

Whether it’s from the clearcoat pooling up around the post or just lifting with the art off the wood, it’s what everyone is calling the issue.

Lockdown bar buttons are awesome...IF used appropriately. So far I like how it’s used in GNR.

#5057 3 years ago

It does get daunting going through all the patches though. Pretty boring.

#5058 3 years ago

Anyone have a link for the Rule set for GNR??

#5060 3 years ago
Quoted from Brkuk:

Does page 11 in the manual help ? A flow chart. You can download the manual from jerseyjackpinball.com under Support - under Downloads - under Guns & Roses.

LTG : )

Pro tip: you can hold the left flipper and hit the button to get back to a patch you just skipped by accident.

Thanks Chuckwurt, yes I have seen all the pictures and if I understand you correctly "pooling" is just the name given to the issue regardless of what's causing it. It's hard to believe that this would pass QC knowingly!

#5064 3 years ago

Yeah. I don’t think anyone really knows what’s causing it. Pooling was used and it stuck.

#5066 3 years ago

Wow this thread went dark.

#5067 3 years ago

I think the world did in anticipation of the election results

Quoted from Zablon:

Wow this thread went dark.

#5068 3 years ago

Fine, results are. The old rich guy won. Can I get my LE now?

#5069 3 years ago

Does anyone knows if mirror blades are made for this game? If they are, who sells them?

#5071 3 years ago

Are these the black mirrors that were on the JJP Facebook page?

#5072 3 years ago

Has anyone tried sealing the clear on these holes with superglue?

#5073 3 years ago
Quoted from Psw757:

No traditional mirrors.

#5074 3 years ago

Anyone know ship dates for LE yet?

#5075 3 years ago
Quoted from Linkboy74:

Anyone know ship dates for LE yet?

Million dollar question....apparently JJP doesn't feel like its necessary to communicate to its customers....its actually quite shocking that its been over a month and nobody has any idea when their getting their game...I'm in on a CE and its been crickets...

Quoted from PtownPin:

Someday!

#5077 3 years ago

BAC stuff is good, but it's is not near the quality and craftsmanship or Lior's mods. Yeah, Lior is a bit more expensive, but look at the detail in the gun stock and overall coloring, I've purchased many mods from Lior; his creativity and customer support are second to none. Don't get me wrong, BAC is good too, but their not on the same level.

I wouldn't be surprised if the delays and silence is due to JJP trying to resolve playfield issues.

#5079 3 years ago
Quoted from PanzerFreak:

I hope so! I'd rather wait and have a nice playfield, then being rushed and chipped playfield.

#5080 3 years ago
Quoted from BallPin:

I hope so! I'd rather wait and have a nice playfield, then being rushed and chipped playfield.

I think we all want that, but it still amazes me that JJP finds it completely unnecessary to communicate to its customer base....its been 5 weeks and no official word on delivery schedule? its nuts....

#5081 3 years ago
Quoted from PanzerFreak:

I wouldn't be surprised if the delays and silence is due to JJP trying to resolve playfield issues.

I think the JJP delays are because they have never experienced this level of demand and are trying the best they can to fill their orders

#5082 3 years ago

Well one thing is sure, once the issue is resolved and JJP is once again cranking out games, we will read about games being received on Pinside and JJP will likely communicate their plan to distributors and customers by then. We don’t know what is causing the slow rampup but I can think of three potential areas. We know about playfield issues and there could be a parts shortage or some legalese to be resolved. I’ll give them until mid Dec to announce their plans before I get worried.

But I agree it would be a good idea for JJP to tell us something. Even along the lines of we are stopped dead on production but hope to have a resolution by Dec 15. We should know something for certain by Thanksgiving and will report it then. Other stuff is of interest too like how many employees are hired and working at the factory and how many are to come? What’s the status on parts and inventory and are there any issues? Maybe Sir Paul is trying to buy JJP to get the rights back to LALD. LOL who knows?

Totally agree....its crazy that they find zero need to communicate to its customer base....unfortunately when that happens we start making up shit

#5084 3 years ago
Quoted from PanzerFreak:

I'd say they are more likely at the 'Sand Pit' stage...... taking turns at burying their heads deep in it!
Hoping when they surface, someone else has acquired them a 'get out of jail free card'.

POTC, Wonka now this, nothing new here.....hate to be the pessimist but I think they're up shit creek with these playfields, its a thorn in their side.

As a company, and given the magnitude for failure.....surely JJP would have done rigorous testing on the GnR playfield prior.
Would you just take Mirco's word as gospel that they are 'good to go' given their past efforts?

UK distro is getting 4 LE's in on the 1st shipment, loads more waiting behind this one....thankfully I'm not earmarked for one of the 1st.
I'll be doing watchful waiting to see how those turn out, small community in UK but word travels fast.

I feel sorry for the teams who put all the hard work in. Shortly after release the focus in the community has been on the damn playfields.
Like any big organisation, there's a responsible in charge of production / decisions, that generally means someone has to go.......

I'm sure we've all seen that film Disclosure? Well......

based on JJP's history, I'm not shocked at all.

I'm on the fence here. If you're inclined to comment or vote... please do.

Sold would be my answer. Both are fun GnR is great though. My opinion

I haven’t played GNR yet so I shouldn’t have an opinion. R&M is limited to 500. GNR LE 5000. You’ll be able to get a GNR.. it may just take longer.

Simply comparing what I own and the family enjoys. Both fun just prefer GnR

Whether it's too little of demand or too much they can't seem to execute on delivering a game timely.

Another roll of the dice with Mirco pf's and JJP. It's only the entire company fortunes on the line.

Same old JJP. At least we have Stern knocking out 3 per year and hit after hit while we wait

I wish I had a garage.

#5095 3 years ago

Will we see another game with such a steaming pile of turd for a playfield?.... probably not in this lifetime.

The 2nd hand market on these things is going to be fun to watch in the next 12 months.

28 pins in your collection and the one Stern is Dale Jr ? I think you may have an unfair view of Stern.

But it’s ok for the same old guys to bash JJP? That’s the only reason I comment. I have owned many Sterns.

Lol hit after hit? Stranger Things, Beatles, Black Knight SOR, and especially Munsters didn't do well.
