Quoted from Lame33:Thinking about joining the club, possibly with the alleged summer batch.
Any tips or recommendations about grabbing one of these new?
Call distributors and see what’s available. I imagine you should be able to find one.

Quoted from chet218:With the rumors of another run of MMR. Does anyone know if the pricing is still going to be higher than their other titles?
Thanks
I wouldn’t expect pricing to change for MMR. I would love for it to happen, as I want one too, but be prepared to pay 8k.
Quoted from Utesichiban:No way I'm paying $1650 to upgrade my already color MMr dmd display. How is this a good deal for current MMr owners? Feels like CGC and Planetary just vaulted on us.
It would only be 650 if you have the color chip already. The display with color chip is 1050.
Quoted from Rarehero:New hobbyists don’t want “used”, HUO, or restored. The scene is much different than when we started collecting. Newbs want NIBs.
Hells yeah. 9 out of 10 newbs are saying they want the NIBs.
Quoted from whitey:Colorado game exchange sold out right away of the Royal editions
I was told 200 ?
Anyone hear anything different
Everything I heard was they weren’t disclosing numbers. Maybe they’re waiting on demand to determine the amount of RE’s they’ll make.
Quoted from Budman:Is there a nice CGC video highlighting the Royal Edition? I’m interested in it but need to see it in person or a high definition close up video tour before spending that kind of money.
It’s an MMR with all of the upgrades (rgb lighting, shaker, topper, color upgrade, larger screen), and black metallic powder coat on the rails, coin door, hinges, and speaker panel. Also has a 2 year warranty like the last 2 LE’s.
Maybe see if you can find someone willing to trade and get some time on an MMR. I think the only way I would sell or trade an original for a remake would be if my original wasn’t in decent shape. I’ve played originals, but not enough to make a fair comparison. I do have a MMR on order however and have the 2 other remakes.
RE is priced higher so that everyone that wants all of the upgrades essentially pays the same price.
It was done to not piss off the original owners.
Well if they are truly waiting on parts from overseas I could see this being an issue. Hopefully they got everything when they began building the SE’s. I still haven’t heard anything from my distributor since the update that they will begin shipping in March.
Reached out to CGC. Didn't expect much, but did get this. Pretty much what the last couple of posts have alluded too.
"With everything that has been going on throughout the world, MMr Royal has experienced many delays.
Currently the state of Illinois is under a “stay at home” order from the governor. We will be resuming production lines as soon as we can ensure the health and safety of our employees and vendors."
Quoted from imagamejunky:Same. I'll post pics here when it shows up.
"Royally" stoked!!
Yeah I got the same. Sounds like CGC is trying to start shipping them out in limited amounts as they can. Sounds like things can change given the current situation, but hopefully these start going out.
I was told that GCG is hopeful to get a few games shipped out either this week or next. They are requesting, at least thru the distributor I went thru, payments in small batches for machines to ship out. If there is any hiccups due to the uncertainty of everything then I can get a full refund until they are actually shipping.
Quoted from Yoderboy:Congrats man, be sure to post pics when you get it. Had my deposit in since last July have not heard from my distributor yet.
Will do.
Every time I see your name it makes me think of Yoder smokers haha.
Quoted from Yoderboy:I live in Wichita Kansas which is only 30 minutes from where the town of Yoder is which is a small Amish community where those smokers are made.
Yup I bought one a few years ago. Love that thing.
Just checked mine and it's supposed to arrive at the shipping terminal Wednesday. Guess Ill call tomorrow and schedule a delivery.
Quoted from zpinman370:Great for you- lets see the unboxing and game pics as it sounds like you may be the first to get the RE - lucky man
Coming tomorrow. FedEx called and scheduled today.
Quoted from imagamejunky:You're killin me! Mine was scheduled for delivery on thursday but now fedex says there's a frickin delay. Grrrrrrrr
Checked tracking just now and saw there was a delay this morning. But they did call and schedule delivery for tomorrow. Guess we’ll see at this point.
Mine is still showing that it's in Illinois as of 6PM. Kind of thinking I may not be getting it tomorrow. Ill check in the morning and see if it's updated and is any closer. Oh well, might be waiting another day or two.
Quoted from jarozi:FedEx hasn’t called but tracking shows tomorrow
Yeah that tracking is usually when the local hub will get it. You'll need to call and schedule them to deliver it to your house. Just remember it's freight so you'll have to find the number to your local Fedex Freight Facility.
When I ordered MBR I had to call. This time they called me.
Congrats and please get some pics. Mine was delayed at least a day. Hopefully I’ll get mine tomorrow.
Quoted from BlazerB:When I get mine I was going to do the blanket method. How do you tell which side to tilt when it is still in the box. This will be my 1st pin.
Box should be labeled. Couldn’t hurt to open up the top and just check them reseal it.
Well my game is apparently sitting on a train that has been delayed. So hopefully tomorrow I get it. If not it will hopefully be next week.
Congrats guys. Hoping to be doing the same tomorrow. Game finally moved out of Illinois and is in PA currently.
Also that black powder coats looks awesome.
I have an MBR LE too so Ill take a look at that. I noticed somebody figured it out already. Maybe mine just isn't labeled. There is 4 connectors coming off the topper.
Quoted from LTG:Screw holes on top.
Match up connectors with empty spots on the board. They are keyed, so you can't get one in a wrong spot. A little patience and you'll figure it out. And single connector match up wire colors on both sides.
LTG : )
Thanks Lloyd. I’ll take a look at it later on. Working from home so didn’t have a lot of time to mess with it.
Quoted from jarozi:We had this same question, thankfully the wire length kind of give a clue, and some of them are indeed keyed, but two had the same pinout.
Here is how we did it and it all checked out in the test menu, hope this helps...
[quoted image]
Thank you that will help a lot.
Quoted from billsfanmd:I had the same questions on the AFM topper. There were no instructions so you ended up matching connectors and wire lengths
Yeah I remember messing with that and thinking what the hell haha. MBr was easy.
Quoted from kapsreiter:you have ERROR AT MMR
the dot after FREE PLAY indicates a problem
Yeah it was a switch error. It’s fixed now.
Quoted from robnotto:My Royal Edition came today. It is my first NIB pin. For those who received their Royal did you get instructions for the topper? Did you guys get a key chain? My old LE came with one, I just figured that was standard. Last question I have a nick in the head that I noticed as soon as I opened it. Will CGC do anything about it?
No there isn’t any instructions. I asked this same question a few pages back. There is one post with a picture and another one explaining where the wiring goes.
Quoted from Nepi23:I noticed that the MMR GI RGB UPGRADE KIT, MMR KING OF PAYNE TOPPER and MMR XL DISPLAY/SOUND UPGRADE have landed into the EU.
Just to check: isn't it so that these are not any limited edition and will be continuously available from CGC/Distributors?
I mean - can one wait with the purchase or should one buy right away?
Thanks for any info!
If I recall it was only the Topper that would be limited. But only in the sense that they’ll make enough for people that want them now, and won’t be doing another run. Who knows though.
Quoted from PaulCoff:Wasn’t there a quick code update regarding flipper strength, screen tearing, audio cracking, or something minor like clock stuff in the beginning of the role out before the color update for the small screen? Does anyone remember?
You might be thinking of AFMR.
Anyone ever have issue with the leds in any of the inserts? I noticed within the last month or so that the 3 Lock insert is dim. Its odd though as it will work for a bit then get dim, then get brighter. Hoping its something easy, lifted the playfield and didn’t see anything out if the ordinary.
Quoted from glpinball:Could be one of those stupid bayonet bulbs. If so, take it out and open the wires up aroumd 90 segrees, make sure they align and are straight as well. Then reinsert. And hope for the best. Another trick is open the wires and wrap some electrical tape around the plastic then reinsert. Or the wires could just be too messed up and you need a new bulb.
Another issue is socket may have some problems.
I think these are surface mount 3 led banks.
Quoted from MrMikeman:Have you tried re-seating the connectors on the board?
Yeah ill have to try that. Looking at it last night nothing looked loose.
Quoted from erak:I've had in the lock 3 insert. 1 Led always flash and light a bit from day one when any of the other locks light are on. Brighter when flashers go off on my LE. I've never been able to fix it. With any reseating. But it's not a huge issue. Someday I might dig deeper into the LEDs on the board.
Quoted from jrcmlc:Is there a no bs comparison opinion available between the remake and OG? I thought I had a really nice OG bought, but that went to crap, so exploring all options.
I own the remake and enjoy it. Ive played originals but nothing extensive. I would say just pick up either one if given the opportunity.
Quoted from GCS2000:Thx that is the sheet I was looking for but my google-fu was letting me down tonight
Still hoping to find one of these without having to pay 20k which I am never doing.
Is that what the RE’s are selling for? I’m not currently looking to sell but can’t believe they’re actually selling for that price.
Quoted from GCS2000:If you were selling I would be coming to your house since you are basically local, lol.
There are Royals posted for 20k on pinside doesn't mean they sell for that but I am not paying that either. There was an MMRLE updated to Royal level in Canada that is pending it was listed for 16,500 but not sure of the final sale price.
Haha yeah not far at all. Yeah i’ve seen those listings but figured its a list high and widdle it down to what I really want/expect type listing.
