    I simply don’t think it’s as dire or nefarious as some people are making it out to be. Why would they order more POTC parts if they were starting on a totally new game? My thought is, they probably have a small gap between POTC (seems like they ran out of parts) and starting on the next game. JJP has repeatedly said they want to do two games a year, and timeline wise it appears that’s what’s happening here. Keep in mind, POTC has been running since roughly July. Plus, my business partner had talked to JJP over the summer about buying a WOZ, and he was told then they would have some WOZRR around the beginning of the year. That’s obviously turned into the YBR edition, but if they were telling people over the summer about WOZ, it doesn’t seem that crazy to do a higher priced special edition. I don’t care when stern does it, and I don’t care when JJP does it. Am I a buyer at some of these CE/SLE price points? No, But there is a segment of the market who is and I’m happy for them to get what they want. Some people have said for years that JJP is on its dying breath, and blah blah blah... But the games are seemingly coming quicker and quicker, and It doesn’t seem like the sky is falling like some are suggesting. Only time will tell, but I’ll keep enjoying my JJP games just like I do my stern and CGC and excited to see what they all come out with next.
