Im still waiting too.
Hopefully this week is the week they ship. I'm hoping that the wait has been due to Stern addressing all the Quality Control issues ( i.e. Poor paint job on the Gene heads, horrible cabinet Decal installs, Decal adhesive failures, etc..). My fingers are crossed that this is not wishful thinking on my part.
Still waiting as well.
Heard the Premiums will start to be built at the end of this week and start shipping immediately. Looking forward to one by the end of next week hopefully.
I'm still waiting as well. I'll wait another month if it means Stern is addressing the QC issues. I got several packages of mods I'm eager to install.
I definately feel the same way. I have no problem waiting , as long as the machine I get doesnt have the quality control issues that have been reported/posted.
I Ordered my Premium May 8th..
My Premium arrived August 7 and didn't have any significant QC issues. Two minor ones are:
- The left inlane divider is a bit loose (moves a bit when the ball hits it). Corresponding with Stern on how to fix it.
- The lockdown bar is a bit loose (adjusting them is a pain, so I'm living with it for now).
The 1.04 software update appears to fix issues with the Demon mechanisms misbehaving.

Quoted from krupa:On the truck to my house right now. Should arrive by 6.
Awesome!! Post some pics if you can and let us know how the setup goes.

I'm waiting as well. Got to admit I'm a bit frustrated to see Stern running old titles and I'm waiting for delivery of their newest pin. Do the run of your newest then the old can be done. What I was told by Trent is they are running them on the 9th which was somewhat disappointing.

That is disappointing. I'm getting mine from Trent as well.
Quoted from krupa:Truck broke down. Delivery rescheduled for tomorrow. Looks like I'm still waiting as well.
Got my Premium last night!! Cabinet is flawless and no major issues. Trent at Tilt was super cool and he stayed and made sure there weren't any problems. Spent today installing mods. Still need to update to newest code. Came with 1.03. Hopefully new code will help with Gene's SDTM. Get that about 90% of the time

Can you explain I'm not sure what your talking about?
I sure hope Stern builds and ships my Premium before they run a new machine. I ordered their newest release at the time hopefully Stern will get in another run to cover people that have already paid for a Premium.
Yeah, that would be a REAL bummer. Still waiting for my premium too. And this is a first pinball machine for me. Really don't want to wait forever for it.

Check my thread before you even play one single game https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/kiss-le-151-kissues-and-mods Before I even played a single a game and turned it on there was a grinding noise from the belt rubbing against LED wires that are run through it, HUUUUGE MISTAKE! I have detailed pics and instructions to fix it and the VUK and the spinning disc issue and.....well just check the thread for all the fixes you will need to do, hit me up with any questions you have

Oh yeah! Thank you for reminding me 
Quoted from colonelsnow:Do these get shipped to the distributor and then to us or do they come directly from Stern?
Depends on your Distributor, We ship all of our games To Denver then Distribute from here.
All of my sold ones are shipped. But I'm still waiting on my Stocking order
JJ
Quoted from colonelsnow:Sounds like I need to order from you next time.
I highly recommend JJ!

Mine was sent directly from Stern (and mine arrived coincident with the LE's). Unless you are picking it up from the distributor yourself, I don't see the benefit of not sending it directly to the buyer. More cost and opportunity for damage...
