Stern, 2019To early for an owners club? I think not! Since there are plenty of us who have ordered and paid in full, let's get this party started. Proud owner of a Pro model here. Hoping to take delivery in the next couple of weeks. I can't wait! This game looks action packed and fun as hell
Quoted from Morhaus:Deposit on Premium paid. Very excited. Trading DP Pro in to get this...think i'll be okay with it!
I've played DP a few times in my local bar. I couldn't hear anything because of the noise, but it was fun. Congrats on the premium order!!
I'm in on an LE but if not for a loved theme the Pro would have been fine for me. I wish they put more into the LE's to justify their cost to be honest. I already have invisiglass so just armor, art blades, and a shaker for a lot of money. Of course there's the real back glass which is awesome.
Quoted from CoolCatPinball:The wait always kills me. This is my first NIB purchase, but even waiting to pick up a used machine is torture. I always worry someone will change their mind on a deal
Like you, the waiting is tough. Yes! Used machines and the not knowing the end result is Grueling

Agreed 100%. The shaker motor is $95, art blades about $80, and I have a local powder coater that does amazing work and charges $200 to do legs, rails, lock down and apron. It's a super cool theme and movie series. So universally appealing. I have a 12 year old daughter in law that's as excited as me 
I'm not much on shakers but JP seems to be a great fit for one as long as it's integrated well. I was pretty much out of adding pins then I played MUNSTERS and absolutely had to have one (I bought one). Later the same arcade had an IMDN and that was great too. The same happened with DP. I has just about settled on adding IMDN and now this. JP looks great! Damn you Stern! - so many great choices.
Quoted from Green-Machine:The very reason I ordered a premium and a shaker
I ordered a shaker with my pro also! Lol. I have a feeling stern will be selling lots of shakers on this one.

I agree, no better machine I can think of than jurassic park to add a shaker to! I mean its giant dinosaurs, right?!?!
Quoted from Brtlkat:The shaker should be a part of this machine from the factory. The Data East JP came with the shaker already installed from factory.
Was that on the Data East LE or the Pro
DE JP was a single model (like everything before 2011). There was no LE. It came stock with a shaker like most DE games from 1993/1994.
Quoted from Yelobird:Was that on the Data East LE or the Pro
I went LE on this one. I'm a sucker for the speaker light rings. I would've added everything anyway, at least I wont have to stare at the parts while waiting on my game to ship this time and do the "labor" (yes, I know, not that intensive).... *sigh* I just keep telling myself it will be worth it in the end.

Pretty sure I was JOKING lol. I was making the point that the market and options strategy has changed so comparing it to what was standard on a DE is useless.

Nice!! I like the green armor. I'll probably have mine powder coated to look like the LE

The LE's speaker surround rings are not lit from the factory on this game, but I say...light em' if ya got em'.
Here is a video of my soon to be released "Deluxe SPIKE 2 5.25" Speaker Light Kits" from http://www.SpeakerLightKits.com This light kit is only for SPIKE 2 users with the larger 5.25" speakers that many LE games have. I should have these light kits available soon as well as custom color speaker surrounds and 5.25" speaker plates that will allow Pro and Premium owners to upgrade their speakers (with light kits) for a more affordable price than it currently costs.
This video shows the same Kenwood speakers that JP LE has as well as yellow speaker surrounds. I have no hands on experience with the JP LE factory surround, but I suspect it is an opaque yellow just like the example in the video (UPDATE: I was told the factory included surround is actually a brass color...which I suspect is the same one that was in Munsters LE and would NOT allow the light to shine through the surround ring).
The good thing about the yellow surround is the light color seems to change it quite easily. As you can see, if the light behind it is red the surround appears red, the same for yellow and green.....blue and some other colors...not so much. In any case, it is much more exciting than a surround that does not allow any light to shine through it at all...I'm talking about you Munsters surrounds.
In any case, I will have many different color surrounds available and the light kits also look great without any speaker surround at all and I honestly prefer that to using a surround that doesn't allow light to shine through it.
As stated, these 5.25" light kits will be available soon and have the same DELUXE features that my, currently available, Deluxe SPIKE 2 Speaker Light Kits have. Individually addressable LEDs, RF RGB controller with 358 different colors / color transitions and it's own power supply so it is not using power from the game's boards. It's the same great Deluxe Speaker Light Kit.....in a smaller and rounder shape.

Quoted from sk8ball:FYI the speaker rings are brass
On Jurassic Park LE? Now that you mention it....they do look like the Munster surrounds....LAME! I thought it was weird that they had yellow instead of green. If it is the same brass / dull gold surround that The Munsters used....I think it can only be explained as them wanting to get rid of leftover parts as that color doesn't match with anything on JP that I can see. I thought at least yellow matched the logo border, but really thought that green would have been the more obvious choice.
Good news is....I will have yellow or green surrounds available.....or you could keep the factory surrounds (with no light shining thorough them)....or just ditch the surrounds with the light kits as that looks great too.
Thanks for the info.

Looking forward to laughing at pics of the Toys R Us conversions being lined up by some of you out there

Heeyyyy now......lol. Easy there...
Those were just very quick Google searches. I bet I can find one almost exactly like the one in the Premium. Sure, it wont lunge forward, but whatevs. The flat plastic one on the pro looks pretty cheap. So us poor bastards gotta improvise

And now I’m depressed. That’s what I get for assuming.
Quoted from Coindropper:And now I’m depressed. That’s what I get for assuming.
I think only Dple and B66sle have shipped with with lit speaker rings. It’s pretty unusual for Stern. But I have to admit it seems strange to not ship them lit on all games where they have coloured speaker rings- can’t be too much harder for a big company like Stern to have them lit.

Oh my sweet lord. I love the Recorder Fail version lmfao 
Moderator note:
After some discussion we decided this club thread could live, even though the game has not shipped. It’s on the line at Stern and close enough to shipping.
This is the club thread for the pro, the LE club thread from earlier last week that predated this one has been unlocked as well.
Quoted from Coindropper:I went LE on this one. I'm a sucker for the speaker light rings. I would've added everything anyway, at least I wont have to stare at the parts while waiting on my game to ship this time and do the "labor" (yes, I know, not that intensive).... *sigh* I just keep telling myself it will be worth it in the end.
"Staring at the parts" That is required while waiting (LOL).
Gotta share this with the group. I was at a local pinball/arcade bar last night and a couple was playing Gotg next to me and my fiancee. They obviously didn't know any of the rules and were saying things like "what do I do, where should I hit it, why is that flashing?". So, my fiancee, being very outgoing and friendly gave them a few quick tips and said "I only know because we actually own this game". The guy instantly became an ass and was dead set on convincing me that Stern games were generally garbage and could sometimes be fun if they were working. He said the main problem with Stern is that they only make 200 of each title and then abandon the title and move on to the next. I asked, "do you mean 200 limited editions?" He says no, 200 total, that's why they never work right. At that point, we both finished our game and just walked away. Where the hell do people come up with this stuff?

It could be usefull yo unlink Premium and LE editions games from this thread in order to attenuate the confusion with the other thread?

A molded toy is better than a flat piece of plastic , who gives a stuff what store it came from
