Quoted from Goronic:

My understanding is that Jack is still getting final approval on the voice callouts. I'll bet it will be one hell of a patch to 1.0 when Keith gets the green light.

I thought he had this in his pocket a couple months ago. I wonder what happened?

Quoted from Goronic:

According to Jack the call out voices were too close and that he had to change them. Then the licensor said the were too different so jack had to move it closer to the voice of the actor. So they are working on it. I think Gandalf is ok , I think the main issue is Smaug Bilbo and gollum

I had thought that only Gandalf was being used for the voiceover. Wow! I hope this works out well.

I don't want a clear difference between the pin and the movie actors. That would be really disappointing.

Quoted from Hazoff:

... If JJP had made a generic fantasy based game the limitations on what they can add and all that jazz pretty much disappear, I think.

... as do most of the buyers unfortunately.

Quoted from Skyemont:

Not sure if they are all signed but I asked Jen to sign as well.

I think I would want Keith's signature.

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

I'm back in on The Hobbit (probably the 5th time, lol) as of today. Deposit sent for an LE. Will post pics / impressions when it arrives in a couple weeks.

You staying in this time Panzer?

Quoted from RobT:

No reason for the "lol" !
I always said I was interested in the Hobbit.
I played it.
I liked it.
I ordered it.

Welcome back Rob. We have missed you.

So, for those of us wanting to preorder "alternatives" for our hobbit, what should we consider. I am hearing ...

Shooter spring
Leaf switch tool
Flipper bands
Post (for left side return)

What am I missing?

Also, what is the current level of spring? Panzer mentioned upgading to purple, but I see that purple seems to have high tension according to Pinball life. Is that the right upgrade? I dont mind ordering a few colors to get it right.

What post should be ordered? Anyone with a new delivery see a "fix" for this issue in their Hobbit from the factory?

It is getting close. i should have mine within a few weeks. I appreciate all the advice from you "beta" testers.

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

Yes, I would think JJP would warranty the glass as its their fault the tab is not down lower.

Absolutely agree! This should be on JJP if this is a result of faulty installation or construction.

Bought a cool wall piece for the game room today in Allentown.

Very nice! Do you mind if I ask how much these are going for? Thanks
