It would be good to get the emails out to people who have a confirmed deposit paid. I paid for #101 within the deadline and haven't seen anything except for the initial Paypal email.
Quoted from sammiesguys:Nah. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have done that. Kevin made a point to mention that they wouldn't just bump people off the list lightly. Especially without notifying you. It wasn't a hard deadline. Check with them and see what happened.
Sent out an e-mail last night. I know they are crazy busy, so I probably wont hear back for a bit.
Quoted from Pdxmonkey:Damn that Predator is racking up the skulls!
I love it
Sean Connery: I'll take PINBALL MACHINES for 400 Alex.
Alex: This machine has the most awesome skull art in pinball?
Sean Connery: What is Predator?
Alex: Correct!
When is the dead line for the quote you want to pick?
When will we receive e-mails confirming deposit?
I know the fellas are busy, so I thought I'd ask here. Did everyone else that sent a deposit in get a conformation from Skit-B? I did get a paypal one so I know it went through. Thanks!
I haven't received a confirmation for my payment yet. Lots of others haven't, so I'm not too worried.
I do think it's time for the boys to step up their game. They got this far with their good looks, but now it's a million dollar operation. Someone should be dealing with emails/receipts/deposits, etc in a timely fashion, and they need to focus on what they do best and let someone else do the other stuff.
I know it can be hard to let go, but it has to be done at some point.
Received confirmation of my payment, and saw my refund on my statement. Still not sure what's going on

I don't get it, either, so I'll be calling PayPal in the morning. You are the only person this has happened to, so I have no idea what happened. I'll email you tomorrow and let you know what I find out.

I got an email from the Nigerian Prince Skit-B-Bilacca so I sent him $250 through paypal. Its all good though cause he said he has a check for $356,000 and will send it to me upon the arrival of my deposit from paypal.....
Should I be worried?

I've given JPOP thousands for BHZA and there is never an official notice of receipt
It would be nice.
Sweet Jebus, the art is looking incredible. I am happier to be on the pre-order list every time I look at this thread. Full steam ahead!

Totally LOVE the hand drawn art over the photoshop jobs that have been coming out with other new pins.

Same thing happened with BHZA deposits. Paypal would not allow jpop to take "deposits" on yet to be made and delivered product.
Will the girl from the movie be represented in the pin? I cant recall if she has been mentioned yet and Im much too lazy to look back thru this monster thread.

What you are insinuating is not very cool. Thumbs down.

Do I really need to add j/k for some people to understand what a joke is? I'm not insinuating anything I'm goofing around. Lighten up Francis
Oh and PS: you're getting a thumbs down for thinking people on this site are not smart enough to tell the difference between a joke and facts.
Yeah the interwebs are not real good at denoting sarcasm. Others have said similar ideas about 'other' companies which have taken cash but are yet to deliver games...
Winkies help show sarcasm.

I figured when I added Nigerian Prince the joke would have hit someone upside the head.

So that's where the bump came from! I was wondering.

Think anna's sittin this one out

I think its she is in an early mode called "catch the girl". Could be wrong.
As far as her being in the art; no I don't think so.
Quoted from playboywillis:Think anna's sittin this one out
She's an ugly biatch anyways
Quoted from Kcpinballfan:Doh! That flew right over my head lol

Well I meant sitting out of the playfield art and sound clips. I guess she would be featured in the "Catch the girl" mode. But, now that I think about it, she might have sound clips. I'll go back and look later today.
And I never thought she was ugly, but she's got to do something about those round baby duck teeth
Quoted from playboywillis:now that I think about it, she might have sound clips.
She has some great call outs, but only a few. Here are some that I can think of off the top of my head:
"El Diablo cazador de hombres"
"I don't know what it was"
"The demon who makes trophies of man"
Quoted from SkitBPinball:"The demon who makes trophies of man"
That's how I know I'm getting a machine from the right makers!
I just got a confirmation of my deposit, if yah sent one in, you guys might want to check your in boxes.
Quoted from SkitBPinball:"El Diablo cazador de hombres"
Literally it means "the Devil hunter of men".
Got my email confirmation. Thanks!
Woo Hoo!! Got my confirmation and I am locked.
Production #14 (unless someone ahead of me dropped out)
#34
Quoted from herbertbsharp:That's how I know I'm getting a machine from the right makers!
Great attention to detail. This is also why I am looking forward to buying from Kevin.
I have an XM and on the current code, when you start a hero mode no matter who it is, it has Wolverene voice call out. Like you start Ice Man and instead of Ice Man call out it will have Wolverene call out something like "watch it bub" it's so bad it's horrible. I can not know how a major pinball manufacture would allow a code like this to pass in the first place. But to not do something about it immediately is a disgrace.
:rant off:
Quoted from sarconus:Looks great! I think the start of multiball shout be HEAD FOR THE CHAPA!
It's actually the call for when all balls locked and multiball is ready
just got mine. 30/64, which I guess could reduce down to 15/32, but that might start a ground war with someone!
Dan
Quoted from playboywillis:It's actually the call for when all balls locked and multiball is ready
Sweet!!
BTW, don't suppose these guys are coming to Texas Pinball fest in March?
Quoted from rai:when you start a hero mode no matter who it is, it has Wolverene voice call out.
To me, sounds are one of the most important aspects of a pinball machine. Imagine Addams Family without all the great voice clips and you'd lose any connection to the game. Even B-list games can be carried pretty far with great sound effects, like World Cup Soccer '94 or, one of my favorites, WhoDunnit (answer the phone!). Stern has what it takes to make a game sound fantastic, as showcased by Lord of the Rings and definitely Tron, but sometimes I find the sounds in some recent games to be somewhat "lazy." Sound can make a game totally stand out as one of the best, especially with a license behind it like Indiana Jones, for example. As someone had recently told me (I really wish I could remember who said it...), "Take the franchise and milk the sh*t out of it!" When working on a project of this sort, words like that really stick with ya. Could mean the difference between a Star Trek TNG and Pirates of the Caribbean. Both are great games in and of themselves, but the Star Trek nailed every voice call at every point it needed with artistic application, while, to me, the Pirates could have had so very much more draw if it had more fun and applicable voices and sound effects to really emotionally pull the player into it.

Quoted from Drano:Literally it means "the Devil hunter of men".
More trivia:
Quoted from SkitBPinball:"The demon who makes trophies of man"
And this one is represented in the movie by Anna as "El que hace tropheos de los hombres" which in reality translates more like "He who makes trophies of men."
