Quoted from paynemic:Lol. Let’s see if we can get enough new posts to make everyone think it’s finally out.
April 1 is around the corner for that. Granted what Year 4/1 is a different and sad story....

So... George Gomez confirmed on Episode 62 (25:09) of the Special When Lit podcast that the Star Wars topper was finally approved. He commented that the approval was very challenging and said that the topper would be expensive and likely be available by the end of the year.

Quoted from andrewket:Unless it’s the best thing since sliced bread, I no longer care.
Agree, this is totally ridiculous.
Quoted from JodyG:Just in time to stick it on the Home Edition...
They specifically mentioned in the interview they were compatable.

Really....end of year?
Bought an LE.
Would have gladly bought a topper.
Waited so long I no longer cared.
Saw that a topper was being developed and got excited.
Saw how lame it looked and didn't care anymore.
Sold Starwars.
Reeally don't care now.

Quoted from pinwaz:The most anticipated topper in the history of pinball has finally arrived. The Star Wars topper is a “Limited Edition” only 500 units will be produced. I thought that the cool Game of Thrones topper was expensive, but this one costs...wait for it...$750. For seven hundred fifty bucks R2D2 has better mix drinks and serve them to me. Here’s some pictures of it courtesy of Great American Pinball.[quoted image][quoted image]
Umm.....I dont think so! If what you are saying is true, they are out of their minds.
Quoted from Who-Dey:Umm.....I dont think so! If what you are saying is true, they are out of their minds.
It’s not true! It’s actually $775 with shipping Not including tax lol.
Quoted from Pinhead1982:What does it do?
Drain your wallet.

Sometimes there comes a time when a man just has to say no.

Stern has jumped the shark. But don’t worry, folks’ll be selling these for $1000+ next week. Nob, of course... 
Quoted from Pablito350:Drain your wallet.
Not mine, that is for sure. At least not at $775.

Stern shipping out R2 toppers again finally.Got mine yesterday from Cointaker. Mine was 112/500.Works great and looks badass. If they made a projector add on for it down the road that would be amazing. $700 price tag pretty damn steep but it really makes the pin.

Quoted from alemot:Guys, is there anybody that tried to adapt it for the Star Wars pinball machine from Data East....? It would fit great...!
Your feedbacks are really welcome.
Cheers

That would be an impressive achievement. There is a node board and driver board that would need to be somehow integrated with the game. And all the logic of the movement would need to be created and tied to the gameplay. I’m sure it’s possible if someone is really dedicated but it’s a tall order.

What ever floats your boat, but why?...DE has a much cooler R2D2 right in the game vs
that topper, and it works all the time.
