Guns n Roses. Can't wait. I don't think Eric will Wonka it - his PotC is amazing.

I’m hoping toy story.

Yes, I heard it’s just going to be white wood, followed by a thread on pinside asking us to design it...

I want to see a Pinside Pinball Machine. Bitch mode, software update mode, mechanism removed mode, cost increase mode, license fail/steal mode, playfield dimple mode. I'm sure thete is more to be added. Enjoy your day!

Guns N Roses?? Seriously? This guy??

Well played

Maybe then we could get Brat Multiball.

I hope GNR is next. TS close behind?

I hope JJP throws a curve ball and sends out a shocker.

Instead of remaking something amazing like Back to the Future etc, they decided on GNR?? has to be April foods joke.

I really hope this is true!

I really hope Back to the Future is coming at some point. JJP would sell a ton of them.

DE did a great job with their version. But with todays tech and video, it could really be good. Concert footage, backstage...etc

Really?
You guys really think Jack is going make a GnR?
Not a chance. JJP is shooting for more family friendly, global appealing titles.

GnR from JJP?

I guess it could happen, but based on the past titles they've done. I seriously doubt it, doesn't seems like a feel-good family game.

Toy Story seems more like something along the lines of a JJP game.

Really this guy comes to mind, but I'm pretty sure that, like Wonka, this machine will be GnR's "classic" lineup and era. No Buckethead, lots of Slash, etc.

I hate the art on the DE one, and the table FEELS like crappy Data East when you play it, so a premium JJP table with concert bits and great art (hopefully no Wonka-style photoshop explosion on the PF) with a broader selection of music would be awesome. There are a million ways for it to go wrong, but if Eric really is doing it, I have faith, because even after disc-gate and trunk-gate, he knocked it out of the park with jjPotC.

I am slowly losing hope for a Toy Story pin.

It's coming, after GnR, 1Q 2020 if there are no hangups with Wonka and GnR. I'm excited for that one, too, but I just hope they don't Wonka it.

The only thing is, what has GNR done music wise in the last 10 years or so other than Axl filling in for AC/DC

Is Muppets an expected JJP title?

I disagree, DE GNR was absolute garbage. Shots are lame and the recycled from Last Action Hero sound effects was just the crap icing on the crap cake.
ENOUGH WITH MUSIC PINS! GAH!!!!!!

It was on the old original leaked "road map" of pins that has been very accurate, but I haven't heard anything about it in a long time. I hope they dropped it. A mix of family-friendly wide audience sprinkled with a more "grown up" pin here and there seems like a winning formula.

I’ve heard a rumor of a JJP partnership with Homepin to produce an amazing family friendly pin for our friends down under.

I love JJP, but won't be buying any more children's film themes. I would buy GnR. Bottomline, I'm not a woman or a child.

JJP- please remember who your core 90% market is!

I AM IN ......

BRING ON CE #12

So, at this point I don't think it matters. I have 3 jjp games and I love them and play them most. Crazy but I'm thinking of adding Wonka, played it a bunch last weekend.

So if I add Wonka I'll be tapped out at 4 jjp. However, I hope they make Guns & Roses that would be great because I have no interest in that theme and plenty of others that don't have jjp games do. Example post #29.

Cheers.

Here is the really sad news....
With the war chest that stern acquired in past 10 years, with the help of pinside might i ad Gary, they went and got some pretty good licensing contracts over the next 5 to 10 years.
Jack had to do the same quickly and did good. My bet is we will see Toy Story at Expo, and some really fun titles over the next 3 years.
I'm personally looking forward to The Incredibles! And Harry Potter.
Here's hoping Im right.
Looking forward to Next Star Wars pin, Avengers and Jaws at Stern.
Important Note: Lets just call this experienced guess.

If JJP wants to do adult, don’t do music, do a Pulp Fiction.

Stern doing another Star Wars or Avengers is boring.

I don’t understand GnR and don’t really see how it fits with what they try to do with their themes but it sure seems that is likely JJP #6.

I expect that JJP #7 will be Toy Story as long as they can avoid being hamstrung by lack of key IP assets that clearly hurt JJPOTC. Toy Story appeals to nostalgia fans, animation and Disney fans and many families and have the added benefit of being more current than Wonka.

Barring a total swing and miss a Pat Lawlor designed Toy Story game with at least one super cool toy (imagine THE CLAW! picking up a pinball and dropping it on a ramp or something), liberal use of movie footage and custom voices by Tom Hanks’ brother (and maybe even Tim Allen) and perhaps John Ratzenburger would be the closest thing to a day one blind buy for my family if there ever was one.

I’m a big fan of Muppets but I think that ship has sailed and themes like The Incredibles (sticking with Disney) or Back to the Future Trilogy would do far better for JJP. I’m convinced BTTF could probably sell more games than JJP 1-4 combined.

Really don't want a band pin regardless of which band.

I've always thought the same. We all have our favorite music, bands.
Certainly if someone made a Led Zepplin, Oingo Boingo or Devo and it plays well, id buy it. But those tables will never happen.
I would even enjoy a 50's Jazz theme, perhaps a Rat pack pin with all the boys.
Classical music pin, an Amadeus or Beethoven ( imagine 5th symphony 5 ball multi-ball sounds awesome).

Gnr will be my first JJP

I 2nd that!

GNR is next.

I'm sure Eric will do a great job and it will move enough units. It's the first JJP I won't be getting.

Toy Story is #7. It might be the first CE I purchase.

Two totally different themes that probably don't have a ton of crossover in terms of the people that will purchase them. That's probably a good thing.

GnR is #6
toy Story #7

And I’m totally in for GnR....back to back JJP buys for me.

The theme doesn't really matter to me long term. A crap theme with a great pin is a great pin, and a crap pin with a great theme is still a crap pin.

I have posted this in other threads but I would like to see the return of a Rudy in the form of Mr Potato Head as the main toy. Mr Potato head is the main character at Disney parks when you are waiting in line and I think it would work well in a pinball. Unfortunately with Don’s passing I don’t this would happen. Also etch-a-sketch would be a really unique way of implementing a lcd on the playfield.

i just dont get the toy story pinball love you all desire!!!!

I'm surprised to see so many GNR fans wanting another pin. I'm a GNR fan in the most casual sense but it seems like a terrible theme in 2019.

I love band pins. MET, AC/DC, and IMDN are three of my favorite pins.

GnR is my favorite band of all time, so I hope everyone is right and it's next. Like them or not GnR is/was a huge band. I think they had the most successful tour in the world the last 2 years or so.

I'll most likely be getting a CE....and LE at least.

The DE GnR pin is crappy so it will be like GnR is getting their first pin, plus there's a TON of music, videos, and concert footage they could use. Axl is a great composer, so it would be super hot if he made some pin-specific music, but I think that's really more going to be under Slash's purview since he's the pinhead.

TS oh my god Noooo

The only thing that could be better than a GnR pin would be since it's JJP doing it with the depth they normally bring is if they could do a GnR / Motley Crue battle of the bands pin then you would get two awesome band pins in one

I was thinking about the potential song selection in the pin.

I would love for game owners to be able to purchase songs from the pin itself and put in what they want from GnR's catalogue.

JJP could save money in licensing music and we could get what we want. It would be crazy simple to design the code with that in mind and have appetite for destruction multi-ball or use your illusion wizard mode and stuff like that. There's tons of stuff in the Guns N' Roses world you could use for artwork/inserts/modes or whatever that wouln't include song specific titles.

I suppose you could have modes or inserts around the main hits, but I would love to be able to pick what I want. This seems like an easy win/win for everyone. There's already a computer basically in the pin...this seems like it wouldn't be that hard to do.

Something like this?
