Quoted from Brokedad:

I've gotten some of the prototype layouts JJ and his team are playing around with for the next machine and theme (what you thought they weren't ?). I think pinball will and is making a comeback with people producing machines on a special limited quality basis.

I am so keen to have an inkling on theme for next pin

I am not getting a WOZ but if I like the next theme, I would think of starting to save now!

Oh and just looked........12 out of the 13 are sold!!!!

Quoted from gweempose:

Amen! It actually makes WoZ look like a veritable bargain! It's a shame it's so much. I swear I would have considered it if it was closer to 10K. With that theme and Jpop behind the wheel, I'm certain it will be one of the best pins ever made. That's just more money than I can possibly justify spending on a pinball machine. Of course, we're all going to feel like idiots for passing on this one when they are going for $30,000 five years from now.

Too late.

They are all sold.

Wow!

Quoted from iceman44:

As for the JPOP pin....only 13, that seems like a waste of time, at least do 50 to make your gross margins a lot higher and get rewarded for all the work, holy cow, do the math, doesn't seem like a very good approach there.......

Another way of thinking is that he is a one man band and he will be building each one himself, more or less. He has to choose a number that he can deliver. No point in saying 50 and not having the capacity. If he gets these 13 built and they are awesome, I am sure someone will step in with funding so he can scale up.

Over expansion, expanding too fast, usually ends in trouble. I would rather see 13 great pins with the potential for more at lower prices than promising the world and then not delivering.

As long as he breaks even, he can watch his company expand. Lets hope they are great pins

There are already people trying to buy them off the 13 but Jpop is not having it!!
