Jaws is actually the better theme IMO that has been floating around lately. Sure beats KISS. I wouldn't buy one but would be excited to play it on location.
Quoted from underlord:Looks like Stern gave us a Jaws Easter egg.
Yea, along with Beetlejuice, Batman, Mythbusters, Despicable Me, Frosted Flakes, Calvin & Hobbes, Sesame Street, Winnie The Pooh, A Team, Homestar Runner, Masters Of The Universe, Power Puff Girls, Minecraft, QBert, and half a dozen more I can't identify, but possibly Vinny Barbarino, Mr. Rogers, Three's Company and Hillary Clinton.
I'm thinking you might have a bit of tunnel vision on the Jaws thing.
I would definitely be interested in a Jaws theme. I'm not sure why some people think this wouldn't be awesome. I mean, if they can make a pinball machine with a Wizard of Oz them with ruby red slippers on the flippers and actually have people buy it I would definitely think a Jaws theme would be fantastic.
Quoted from TOK:I'm thinking you might have a bit of tunnel vision on the Jaws thing.
But, but, it's a Jaws egg.
What exactly are you trying to say here?
Quoted from Pinchroma:It's my favorite movie of all time and holds a ton of sentimental value to me.
pinch you are dating your self old man
I can already hear the gentle lapping of the night time tide working the shoreline and the soft ding of a buoy beyond the break... coming from this pin!
Quoted from ek77:pinch you are dating your self old man
Actually Pinchroma is still in his thirties. Iirc.
Quoted from Yipykya:I can already hear the gentle lapping of the night time tide working the shoreline and the soft ding of a buoy beyond the break... coming from this pin!
Now THAT would be attract sounds!
I think the call-outs for this pin would be awesome. I wish Bally/Williams would have done this pin back in the day.
"Here's to swimmin with bow legged women"
It would be cool if when you put your money in and first touch the flipper buttons that it would say,
"You have city hands, Mr. Hooper. You been countin' money all your life."
When you drain your last ball: " Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, to you ladies of Spain. For we've received orders for to sail back to Boston. And so nevermore shall we see you again. "
I'm guessing that Stern isn't announcing a new title at the moment.
It would only take the steam out of KISS.
Quoted from gambit3113:I can't imagine Stern going back-to-back 40 year old themes.
The only thing I can't imagine is not buying JAWS.... can't wait I'm diving right into the deep end on this one ! I want the Amity Island Edition. jaws_40th_anniversary__1975___2015__by_smjblessing-d8kbzof.jpg
Quoted from toyotaboy:Maybe Stern needs to start re-theming table layouts again (Family Guy / shrek). Kiss seems to have a pretty applicable layout

Sweet... I want JAWS BAD and I would be OK with them re-purposing the KISS / another table, but wish JAWS had it's own layout / distinct playfield design. Bottom line is LOTS of us collectors / non collectors would love a JAWS period. So please Stern make it happen , 40th Anniversary or not please please please please please !!
Quoted from smokey_789:Stern: "For ten thousand, we'll bring you the head, the tail, the whole damn thing."
Haha. By Christmas. 10k that is.
I see what you did there.
Quoted from gambit3113:I can't imagine Stern going back-to-back 40 year old themes.
Why not?
Everyone on the planet has seen it. Most love it. I work with 6 twenty something's, they all dig it.
Quoted from Mudflaps:Hanging in my gameroom:

That is cool as hell.
Thanks! For you Jaws nerds out there, Narragansett was the beer Quint chugged in the Orca. It's actually a pretty terrible beer.

Wow, Bowie was socking up that man-hammock.
I'm sure there will be more Jaws hints coming from Stern soon enough gang.
Quoted from underlord:I'm sure there will be more Jaws hints coming from Stern soon enough gang.
They should buy that inflatable helium filled remote controlled shark and have it swimming / flying around the Stern facilities.
Just when you thought it was safe to venture into the theater again and assume that Stern has no incentive to jump on this theme!
Stern: Let's do this!!!! Please!!!!
I see Greg is really putting his 'disagree' button to good use...
John Somebody rules!!
I'm teasin ya Greg... Stick to your regular aggressive. Passive aggressive isn't your style.
One a serious note: Mentioned again that this pin would look great in theaters!! Just sayin Stern.

Sorry, just your whole "I'm have Stern's ear and they're doing this cuz of me" routine is obnoxious. It was BS last time, I call BS this time. Stern isn't making Jaws. Also there is no competition between me & my co-workers - getting personal is equally obnoxious.
Grow a sense of humor. It's not personal. I never said I have Sterns ear, I just keep bringing it up to them.
Wanna talk personal? You've called BS on everything I've said since I mentioned I had a friend at Stern. Fine. Don't care whether you believe me or not. Besides, thumbs-downing everyone of my posts you find is kinda childish, but that's the Internet for ya.
I was poking fun at you using John, I'll stop since you're too sensitive about it. I'm not one to personally attack.
Don't like it? Please, PLEASE feel free to hit the ignore since I'm so horrible. Somehow I'll survive. I've used smiley faces, I've outright said I was teasing.
Know what? I'll take the high road here.
Plonk.
And we're walking, we're walking...
