Just for the record, the URL should be http://thepinballfactory.com

Apart from that, I have to agree with you that it's all extremely_ vague. I wouldn't put down any money before seeing something, anything. But hey, that's probably also the reason why I don't have that wonderful Big Bang Bar remake in my gameroom right now - I didn't dare to pay money - and now I'm jealous of the people who did dare to do just that. Hmm, makes me wonder...

You know after reading this post the other day I followed the link and sent off an email to the pinball factory -you know they replied the same day!
I asked 3 things -
1- how many games are you going to make this year?
2 -how many games did you make last year?
3- do you plan to export any games to the United States?
They seemed like nice folks however there was a confidential tag or note with the reply
that forbids me from talking about the info that was sent to me, crazy I know- perhaps I'm being 'punked' but I'm going to go with it and keep the info private.
but do what I did follow the link and email them - a friendly crew down under.

Friednly crew... I made an order last september. Just some parts. Never got it. They told me its because of the postal service. But I ordered 2 times before and got it... Never got the money back. So would I order a pinball machine? Not even a screw

Well..welll.well...I read these posts with a smile on my face because both great news and bad news travels fast, as well as far.
Australia to the USA is a long way.The fact is, that most people in Australia, who have had anything to do with WAYNE, all know the same thing..he is a complete TOOL...OR to be frank, NOT A VERY GOOD BUSINESS MAN at all...AND A REAL smartmouth.
..WHEN U TAKE deposits $$$ from people, for the NEW release of his IMAGINARY WILLIAMS releases, and 3 years on, nothing has happened, AND no one has got anything to show for their $$$, EXCEPT EXCUSES AND BS, IT DOESNT TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTIST to know he is just a COMPLETE TOOL...OR NOT A MAN WHO DEALS IN THE TRUTH..he has a few loyal puppy dog followers,but ALMOST ALL people in the Australian pinball industry THINK HE IS AN EMBARRASSMENT...
..THE NEXT williams PINBALL HE MAKES SHOULD BE CALLED WAYNES WORLD...you put money in, get nothing, the game starts in 3 years, and when it does, it just tells lies...ohhh, AND to his puppy dog loyal followers, dont even post to me, because your heads are so far up WAYNES BUM, that you cant smell his continual BS..LETS SEE SOME MACHINES WAYNE...YEHHH RIGHT....PPPPFFFF...what a worldwide complete joke he is.

Wow
I had no idea the guy was taking money and wasn't shipping anything out.
I'm glad however you guys pointed that out, might save others from getting burned.
you know there was a movie called Waynes World -maybe he will do it?

ohhh, and i should have mentioned, 99.9999 percent of Aussies (Australians) are easy to get along with and are friendly and honest people.Just the occassional person with an ego the size of the empire state building, and a brain like a mouse, are like WAYNE THE TOOL.
Dont let the let downs like WAYNE GILLARD from melbourne sway you from dealing with the rest of the great Australians who love pinball and their customers...
Its a shame no one with any get up and go has done anything with the WILLIAMS rights/products.Could have been great.

Might as well revive this Wayne thread

Let's just answer this question now:

NO - He will not "do it"

Thread Closed

A lot of hubris and doesn't play well with others.
No, it will never happen.

Wait, didn't Wayne sell everything to Bay Area Rick? Or was that just a dream I had a year or two ago?

Everything but the rights to the MM debacle.

At least we still have Gretzky to give Wayne a good name.

Wayne did it.

I was more leaning towards the Butler.

Where do you guys dig up these 4 year old posts?

And WHY??????

At the very bottom of the thread list, I clicked on the "332" number, which was the highest numbered page of posts.

Well, why not?

This has to be the oldest thread I have ever seen resurrected. I was "in" years ago and finally faced reality and received my deposit back. I then took that money and placed a pre-order for another pin that hasnt been delivered yet. I know, I know...glutton for punishment. I think that I am pretty much done waiting and unless a tornado pops up and drops a new pin in my driveway real soon I will be moving on and getting one I can actually play. As far as MM goes....I finally convinced myself that it is unobtainable and I am sleeping much better now.

Or you get one and start adding up the cost of the parts to restore it and say to yourself F&[K this and unload it and buy two HUO games with the money.

Party on Wayne!
