Quoted from J85M:No they didn’t, only now are JJP around the 4k mark of GnR LEs sold to date, not the first few days of its reveal.
That we do not know. We can merely speculate using imperfect knowledge.

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:That we do not know. We can merely speculate.
You mean like your speculation they sold 4k LEs in the first few days of reveal?
So you don’t know no one that has ordered a GnR LE outside of the first few days of reveal? No one you know ordered one this year? Cmon Jeff your talking nonsense mate.
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:We’ll see. JJP sold about 4k LE’s in a few days when GNR was shown. Sure TS is $2k more but since, GNR prices rose to $11.5k. I think they could sell more this time as Toy Story is a much better theme with broad appeal to all ages.
Really? How do u know this? My guess is they maybe they sold 4K total ?
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:I think they could sell more this time as Toy Story is a much better theme with broad appeal to all ages.
With a higher price and a shakier economy, I could see them selling less too.
The whole price speculation is getting old. We don’t know what it is. Yes, they could ask a trillion for a one off super duper limited collector edition. They can ask whatever they want for any model.
It is a fine line to toe because if you ask too much, sales stagnate. If you lower prices then previous buyers get pissed and pitch forks come out. Price will be whatever it’s going to be, flippers are going to flip.
I’m pretty sure a smart company would produce a unit with an acceptable profit margin based on percentages, not FOMO. FOMO is not a constant and weakens/goes away, especially in a downturn economy.
Quoted from zaphX:Not gonna happen. Sane scoring is a hallmark of all JJPs.
I personally think games that award 1M points for plunging the ball are absurd.
Not a fan of AFM?
Quoted from greeneye:Not a fan of AFM?
No, I really don't care for it. Or most other DMD-era games. I got into the hobby in the LCD era and I'm hooked there.
Sounds like orders go live at same time they reveals game. Not giving any time for people to evaluate…
If I was Jack, I would launch this thing this second. Based on the stock market, people may not have cash tomorrow

I don’t feel like working…. Need the teaser trailer!!

What are you talking about??? Let me just quickly check my accounts here...
Notice the first quote: "To infinity..."
Buzz branded? If nothing else, that's 100% confirmation of Toy Storyness.
Quoted from chillme:Now if they would just show us the pin before orders open.

I am refreshing the SDTM YouTube page

They just did in your picture!
(or are you saying you'd like to see a few more pics?)

I think if it was Buzz branded not so much red.
Still hope for first 3 movies ..fingers crossed.
Quoted from dsmoke1986:I need to see this playfield layout...Cmon Jack
There is also the possibility there is something we REALLY won't like and they are holding off on showing it to us in hopes of maximizing orders.

Good thing you seem to have a lot of that.

You could be very right, and I am afraid of that.
I have LOV and Halloween on order already, so I won't hesitate to not buy this if it doesn't look great...But this is a dream theme for us for sure.
Setting up the over/under for JJP Toy Story threads tomorrow at 6.5
May have to hammer the over on this one.
Hopefully they show more than just that image before opening orders. Otherwise, sets such a horrible precedent. We ‘de have no choice but to blindly preorder if we want a CE. Got burned by spooky doing the same thing (but at least they showed a teaser). Halloween was such an awesome theme that sold itself, same goes for Toy Story,
Quoted from Wariodolby:Re watching toy story 4 forgot how awesome Duke was!
Would actually be awesome if this is on toy story 4.
They may have Keanu reeves for Matrix too!
[quoted image]
YES... I... CANADA!
Quoted from kapaun:If you brighten up the image you can make out a bit of the playfield
Order banks open tomorrow at high noon EST. Anybody received an email blast yet with this important and timely ordering info? I was on Pinball Star’s and JJP’s lists. Turns out just watch Pinside. Who needs social media?

That’s what I was arguing a few days ago. They know people are hungry to buy it sight unseen. If you wait until they show a teaser video or pictures of any kind, the CE will be out of stock by the time you make your decision.

There's a bunch of CE reservation spot sales that are gonna go up Wednesday for twice the price, the scalpers are among us.

Hard to say, but almost looks like this guy's helmet here:

I typically don't say anything, but this comment is killing me right now. I gut laughed. Thank you. Comedy gold.
I can't imagine Pat and co. being anything but 100% proud of the entire game that's been baking for 5+ years. Anybody that pre-orders can change their mind. Of course JJP wants you to be excited and order it. But to say there is some tactic to trick you into ordering is sophomoric. You're never going to please everyone in how you show a game.
I agree with hating not seeing pics of a game before it's sold out. It's how I ended up with Mando Prem instead of LE, but I'm willing to bet we see pics of the game at or before 12pm EST tomorrow.

O, I'm sure it's awesome and am rooting for you guys on this one. My new pin funds are locked up with Weird Al. Remember the awesome JJP reveal video for G&R? Did that drop before or after order banks opened? I would be shocked if they don't show us gameplay video or the photos before order time. Lawlor is awesome... especially Whilrwind.

I totally agree with you. I just wish they would at the very least show the playfield today to give us an idea before buying the game.

And at this point in time if Toy Story was revealed complete with a Woody or Buzz talking head with a mouth that opened to lock balls and eyes that opened and closed... Pinside would complain that the eyes didn't move left to right.... I would!

If there's not a habit trail going through a slinky dog body I'll be very surprised.
