Tried calling.. went to voice mail, I'm interested. I want a specific number if possible... Thanks.

Just spoke to Rick... Nice dude! Happy to say that I'm now on the MMRLE List !

Did you get your number?

Well.. No, unfortunately I didn't... I didn't really have a back up plan I thought for sure that number I wanted would be available since it was a rather high number, But Rick basically said look I've got this number or this number etc... I was like uhhhh yeah I'll take THAT number ! so I think I was in the right place at the right time with someone else that backed out etc... yes I payed extra for it, but to me it's worth it.

I'm really stoked to even get one regardless of the requested number situation.

yep, that's right... special number for a special price.. . .

So, you paid extra for the number? It sounded like that number you want is available at this stage in time, but you still have to pay extra for it? Yikes.

He charges extra $ for "requested numbers", I think it's either 100, 300, or 500 depending on what that number is. Respectively the lower the number the more expensive. The number I originally wanted was my birthday, sadly... It was gone.. I said ok what do you have available...since I didn't have a back up number he let me know, gave me the pricing options and I agreed, and was rather shocked that I was able to get a particular number.

Does your number change your production order? Might not matter since stern is producing these and pumps the games out quick (presumably) but on WOZ that is the difference in over a year of time with your game...so that is a reasonable question for you to ask rick.

I briefly discussed when will I get the game.. . Rick said basically he is ensuring that prior to having it on the line at Stern he wants to check over and ensure each and every little part. Once they are being produced Stern will be churning out lots of them per week is essentially what Rick said, I don't remember the exact number but they should all be completed / shipped out to those that payed in full for the 1000 MMRLE's first before the MMR.

Now I'm just pressed on what trim to order it in.. any one have pics of all three ? I think he said gold, black, steel ?

Check out the monster thread at: http://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/mmr-pps-and-overall-update-official-pps-oct-21-2013/page/79

Page 80 has a picture of a prototype wearing the shiny black. They dropped one of the four shown on page 79.

Rick said hope to start shipping in about 30 days - and then 100-150 per week

btw... I'm getting number 6.

Yep... I'll need to find one more random pin before that happens... I own 4x right now and need another to make it 5 that way when MMRLE arrives it will actually be my 6th pin ! (Whirlwind or T2) is on the brain.
