Quoted from estrader:Anyone have shipping info yet? Got to think some go out this week or early next week. I was asked to pay in full the other day.
LEs next week, Pros the week after that.
Quoted from Taygeta:LEs next week, Pros the week after that.
Sounds good to me. Did this info come from your distributor?
Quoted from NeilMcRae:anyone know when the topper comes out?
I was told it's supposed to be available in November.
Quoted from Taygeta:LEs next week, Pros the week after that.
Thats different than what my distributor told me. LE's ship out next week then Premiums will be next, Pro's will be shipped out last. This model makes more sense to me since the people who pay more get their machines earlier.
Quoted from CashMoney:Thats different than what my distributor told me. LE's ship out next week then Premiums will be next, Pro's will be shipped out last. This model makes more sense to me since the people who pay more get their machines earlier.
My distributor told me Pros before Premiums.
Was dropping off a board at my distributor yesterday to get fixed and they were unboxing a Pro. Got a few games in. It's a lot of fun, Pro buyers will be happy. The Avenger Tower ball lock is so cool! I'm already in for a Premium so I just kept thinking about the Marvel loop and the Doctor Strange portal. 
IMG_5142 (resized).jpgJust hung up the phone with my distributor. He said my machine (LE) would drop ship straight from Stern due to my location. They said could be as early as next week to my doorstep, but not to expect it.

Nice! USPS is running S L O W order your priority mail stuff now. Week and a half-ish for priority stuff i ordered. I would assume most US LE’s are coming direct.
Quoted from japespin:My distributor told me Pros before Premiums.
I received word from my distributor and Stern, that my Premium is confirmed for Mid-October.
Quoted from Mtg381:I received word from my distributor and Stern, that my Premium is confirmed for Mid-October.
Yup, which makes sense with how the LE's are shipping out next week. So Premiums would have to be next on the line lol...

Put my deposit on a premium today and got to play a pro. So fun. Captain Marvel shot is still fun but REALLY easy to hit. Makes for some interesting combos. Cant wait to try the crazy premium shot though. Guantlet is very repeatable. Hawkeye insta drained me more than once. That tower is a deadly sdtm drop if you miss the flip.
Quoted from PinMonk:So no Pros in the wild yet?
There are at distros, I know trent put one at the VFW show in Michigan last weekend.
Quoted from PinMonk:So no Pros in the wild yet?
It seems that many distros received one pro as a "Showroom" game and were told to not sell them to operators. Seems like a new approach maybe because Stern is trying to appeal more towards home buyers right now?
I'm sure when the next batch of Pros arrives we will see them at more locations.

That's the exact rumor I heard weeks ago. Stern would make enough Pros to get 1 to each distributor, then do the complete LE run, then more Pros, and finally Premiums. Who knows where that started or if there's any merit to it. But, it appears to be what's happening.
Quoted from Meegis:There are at distros, I know trent put one at the VFW show in Michigan last weekend.
Right. I know dists have them, but was asking if anyone that's not a dist has theirs yet. Signs point to "no."

Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas put a Pro on their floor last night. They posted it on their Facebook.

That sucks. for me.
I’m not buying A game before I play it soooo.
Can’t wait to play it as it looks awsome.

Quoted from punkin:Trying to think of which of my twenty games i've played before i bought.
Hurricane
Aerosmith
Lost World
Genie, Tommy and Tales from the Crypt, but i sold all three of those.
Cool.
So 6 games I wouldn’t want to play after I bought them.
Edit: there are so many games and places to play here in the twin cities now I just enjoy owning the few games I really like to play.
I’m lucky I can find a ton of games on location here.

Need better judgment 
Quoted from WizardsCastle:Are LEs currently shipping to people?
My distributor said today, I could receive mine next week, but "don't get my hopes up too high". So, I'd say they are starting to ship, yes. But, remember, there are 500 that need to be built, boxed, addressed, and pushed out the door. So, could still be a short wait.
Pro is being streamed tonight, by Captain’s Auction:

Think it would be nice to see, for those of us waiting on Pros.

I’m probably going to sell my JP and get an Avengers premium. Only drawback is I’m an expat in UAE. If I want to ship it back to the states eventually I’m unsure if I can swap it back to 60hz. Recently learned about the region lock. Anyone know if it’s possible?

Avengers: Infinity Quest Pinball First Impressions and Gameplay
Great presentation Zach and Greg. Agree on the story/code. Hope some gaps are filled in between fight scenes with animations and callouts to give it a push.
So I played a few games on the Pro model today and IT IS AWESOME!!! The ramps are smooth and layout is probably Elwin's best to-date. I kept hitting the banana ramp for increased multipliers and it was a blast! A little polish on the code and this is an easy "game of the year" winner IMO.
I will say that I'm glad I went in on a Premium. Not having the Dr. Strange portal really changes the game play... The pro is still great but you can tell Elwin intended this game to be played on a Premium/LE. Can't wait for the game to land on my doorstep.

I don't know about New Jersey but you should give Trent at TILT Amusements a buzz.
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:I don't know about New Jersey but you should give Trent at TILT Amusements a buzz.
thanks. I sent a message to Zach at FNO as well. Id like someone local as my old guy would personally deliver and setup the game for me(for a fee). Now I have to learn how to get it down my stairs and set these things up!
