I think BBB would be a poor choice for a remake.

Word on the street now is the Australian first container is coming on the 7th July with the second coming in August.
My LE is on the second container so I’ll be lurking in this thread for a while longer!

The good news is - it's worth the wait. I've enjoyed my game thoroughly since getting it.

2nd container loading and will be here late July
Got my LE today. Absolutely beautiful no issues out of the box. Played a handful of games and will dig in more later this week.
Very happy with the quality, 100% worth the $ and is built like a tank. Fantastic job CGC
Mine arrived also in perfect condition. No issues so far with it set at 6.5 degrees. Scoop so far is ejecting onto the left flipper like it is supposed to. No ramp issues, though they seem a bit "new" and will probably get faster as they get a little wear on them. So far I haven't had a problem with Drac's feet and everything is working beautifully. A long wait for sure, but now it feels worth it!
#1168 in the house (finally)!

It is times like these I like being corrected!!

Looking back over the details/emails I’ve received, the boat if scheduled for a 7th July arrival will mean 2 months on the water.
Quoted from Rhlufa:After a seven month wait ours finally came on Thursday. After unboxing and getting it set up we discovered that we’re DOA. Checked all of the connectors but no luck.
Open a ticket with CGC. You will hear from LTG pretty fast I'm sure.
Quoted from MrTilt:Any updates on Australian delivery?
2019... hopefully...
Quoted from MrTilt:Any updates on Australian delivery?
I’ve paid up - supposedly the second container is on its way and will be here at the end of the month.
Quoted from MrTilt:What about 1st container?
Supposedly this coming week. Shipping took over 2 months so I wouldn’t expect to see the 2nd allotment so quickly.
Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:Supposedly this coming week. Shipping took over 2 months so I wouldn’t expect to see the 2nd allotment so quickly.
This is most likely the case being we have not heard about the first container as yet. I wonder if customs is an issue..
Quoted from MrTilt:Apparantly in Sydney a few days ago
Maybe next week we might have them
So it wasn’t direct to Melbourne? A paddle boat would have been quicker.
finally got mine. had to drive it from sfge in an open pick up nib. started to rain hard and flew to Home Depot for a tarp. was skeptical about the game whole ride home but in the end all was perfect. most of the drive was through electrical storm. seems proper!!

i should know i drove that pickup truck and could not see well through all those storms ........but all the monsters survived.......

man that looks incredible nice job smog
Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:So it wasn’t direct to Melbourne? A paddle boat would have been quicker.
It never was Direct Shipment it was a Transhipment otherwise we would be calling on the extra lower exchange Rate costs from Each customer which we paid almost $21,000 Extra.
The 2nd Container was Direct Shipment,
A Direct Shipment doesn't mean it goes direct from USA to Melbourne, it means it doesn't change ships in Singapore
Quoted from MrTilt:Got a phone call today - come and pickup MBR
Finally here in Melbourne!
Cool - if anybody is feeling that life is not worth living once they leave this thread; I’ll take your LE now and you can wait for the next container. 
Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:Finally out of the club, but will forever be connected to you folk in this thread ☺️
Plays amazingly well out of the box, amazing pin CGC, worth the wait.[quoted image]
Excellent. It's been a long wait, but one well worth it. Got the call yesterday arvo to say mine was ready to pickup.

It has been a long wait huh! Even though I’d seen all the pics, all the unboxing vids etc, I was still blown away, amazing pin!!
Definitely worth lowering the flipper power (I believe most have said -6).
Enjoy
Quoted from sepins:Game 450 delivered last night. Marshall here in Tampa was awesome for doing late night delivery!!!
I've had 1 HUO MB and a 2 restored ones over the years. No comparison to this game..It is unreal!!!!
CGC did a crazy good job on this game!!![quoted image]
Excellent. I agree. I never had a NIB and while that makes a difference, this is clearly a great machine. Enjoy!!
Quoted from YeOldPinPlayer:New thread title MBr- ordered (date), arrived (date)
Can you change the thread title? I was just going back through this and noticed your comments. It would be interesting to see what the average wait is for the various manufacturers...

You’re welcome Paul and glad to get the Monsters rocking in your home.
It has been a long and frustrating wait. Glad to be out of this club. Our machine arrived last night at Midnight... Finally!
Quoted from RavenFan1:Enjoy. As many of us has said, they did a great job on this one.
Thanks very much. Yes, definitely a fantastic looking game. Well done to CGC. We are very happy with it.

I just started my hunt for a Monster Bash LE. I contacted just a few companies and I am finding it difficult to even know who I should buy from. I thought I had a solid contact from company I bought a used machine from but all the sudden no replies...... can someone recommend where to buy Bash LE. Looking to purchase at end of September. Hoping to have some sort of machine warranty coverage. I’ve not been buying pinball machines long enough to know the ropes.

most have sold out of the LE, I would buy sooner than later

Flip n out and Pinball Star both have LE advertised ready to ship, both have good reputations..
Good Luck
We have gone with Great American Pinball. Little better price, two year warranty, new in box (last one it sounds like), shipping included in that little better price, takes check to avoid fees (better price).
We are so excited. This Monster Bash remake LE just stands out above the rest.
