Guys a jerk, unethical like Zitt pointed out and as much as I want a toy story for the family at todays prices I will happily give it a miss to avoid a defective playfield.

Vote with your wallet simple, most companies never do anything until they see sales/financials effected, so if you want change and quality playfields the next move is obvious.

Quoted from jfh:

Jack gets a tiny bit of credit for at least acknowledging the problem. He did say he didn’t expect any issues with playfields on the next game but didn’t say why and I didn’t get the an opportunity to ask Jack why he thought that (i.e. what was going to change)

Hasn’t Jack & JJP said the issue was fixed previously though for owners of their next game to find out that isn’t true?

Quoted from Lermods:

Easy to confirm this, do the newer GnR games coming off the line have any issues?

Problem with that is they “fixed” the issue with POTC didn’t they? Only for GnR owners to discover the problem wasn’t fixed.

I can’t recall exactly but I am sure Jack and JJP have said more than once the problem is fixed and it appears to have been fixed for then owners of their next game to have issues.

Mirco is The One when it comes to dodging

Quoted from jfh:

It may not be worth anything to anyone but me but after talking with Jack this morning I’m reconsidering my decision to sit out on Toy Story. He didn’t tell he anything I hadn’t heard before I’ve moved from Must Have to Not as long as it’s a Mirco playfield to seriously considering a CE.

And this is exactly why Mirco felt completely comfortable coming to TPF to showcase a new product and flat out ignore every playfield question.

He knows he doesn’t have to answer or change anything and his bottom line will continue to grow. Even the comments on Kaneda’s FB live video had people in outrage at his “no comment” comments but seconds later saying they will still get a Toy Story.

It really is no surprise as a community we get targeted by con artists.

Quoted from frankmac:

Just some gorilla math. If the polls shows anything of how people feel about purchasing a pin with a MIRCO playfield a company that uses their product could miss out on $820,000 at this point. If the average sale is 10k. That is a big deal!
82 never

That’s if those people actually stand by their vote. I would love a toy story kids love the films and I remember them fondly from my childhood but at £12-£15k GBP I am not prepared to take the risk or support Mirco and Jacks shitty business practices.

The second he said no comment everyone should have stood up and walked out saying “well that’s all we came for so if you won’t answer or even acknowledge issues, talk to yourself about Totan 2.0”.

…. Mirco is that you!?

No comment..

Quoted from gjm7777:

Just curious if anyone got a chance to yell at mirco as his plane took off the tarmac back to germany.

No but I hear someone got a photo of him from behind as he walked down the gantry to board the plane.

Quoted from romulusx:

We need to get started right now with the Toy Story bashing before anybody decides to buy one!!!

The biggest problem is that as soon as Toy Story is announced, a large majority will forget all about the playfield issues until they open their NIB Toy Story and the playfield quality is still piss poor.
