Quoted from Coolpinballdino:I so hope it's Jurassic World instant buy for me would love to have it besides my other two JP pinball machines.
Definitely a buy for me too, so long as it looks good. Drives me crazy, stern sometimes makes amazing pins and other times makes awful pins. 
Quoted from Whysnow:any insider info on likely designer or coder?
Is Elwin up in rotation again?
Some new or returning old school 90s designer?
I think Bryan Eddy was rumored for code?
Quoted from chad:Hard to believe it has been 2 months since BKSOR release
I feel like BK SoR sales aren't going well?
Quoted from Whysnow:I would think that if Stern is smart and ready, then they will be announcing as soon as the first run of Wonka leaves the factory?
That would be smart business. Once WONKA hits on route then I see lots of people liking it and wanting it (both for route and home), so Stern would be smart to try and stem that competition by giving people another option and trying to steal hype.
I doubt stern would hit that deadline. It looks like the Wonka runs will be leaving/shipping in time for Pintastic in a week.
Quoted from davijc02:I can’t imagine Stern is really all that worried about Wonka. The layout looks interesting but the theme is crap and the code looked fairly boring.
I hardly doubt stern is worried about JJP. But, that doesn't mean they wouldn't try to steal some thunder. It's just good business sense.
I’m a huge JJP fan. Stern sells way more pins than JJP does. No idea why anyone would think otherwise. Both manufacturers have provided numbers before and Sterns are like 5x higher at least.
Quoted from Whysnow:yeah, it is pretty clear that WOZ, TH, and DI have all sold about 3x more in quantity than the typical Stern game.
The reality is JJP offers about 1/5 of the total title in that same time frame.
Stern total sales are obviously way more than anyone, but for edition size of the 3 JJP titles have all sold very well.
WOZ just keeps selling and the total number is crazy at this point (I am amazed they are still producing them but it seems to be the case)
TH sold very well out of the gate
DI was slow to start but obviously picked up lots of steam.
All 3 titles have done quite well.
In comparison, Stern typically gets 1 hit title a year. Maiden, DP, etc...
The other titles average very low numbers.
Anyone paying even remote attention to what they see on route, in personal collections, and recorded on websites that track the info can see the clear and obvious trends.
Where are you getting the data from? I’m genuinely curious as I’ve never seen numbers from JJP and Stern that would back up that claim.
If the next pin is Jurassic world I hope it’s awesome with good code and fun toys and mechs. The original JP is still one of my favorites.
3 weeks later
Quoted from fosaisu:As Whysnow will tell you, he has a distributor (don't bother asking who) that consistently sells him NIB Sterns for hundreds less than anyone else pays. Still, it sounds like zaphx payed several hundred more than "street" price for his SW Pro, so he should call some other distributors next time around.
It pays to shop around. 
Quoted from Mike_J:When is Stern releasing their next real pinball machine?
Quoted from WolfManCat:Rumors point to Elvira 3 in October.
Rumors point to Jurassic park or world next week.
