Quoted from FlipsMcgee:So, like, this is happening? Or maybe kinda? Or almost somewhat ehhh?
According to Gomez yesterday, "maybe in April" and then "April, I think."
So close, but April isn't a lock.

Did he specifically confirm Maiden, or just say the next game is maybe April? Unusual to specifically confirm a title ahead of time but would be great if he did.

He kept saying "Titanium Man" <wink wink>. Then someone asked him about Iron Maiden release because they were too dense to get what he had been saying literally all seminar and his answer was about "Titanium Man" AND Iron Maiden, so confirmed maybe April, or maybe not, but soon. This IS Gomez we're talking about, so blindly believing anything he says about timelines or features is bound to disappoint.
Quoted from Gryszzz:CODE WORD:
TITANIUM MAN
lol
Hmmmmm......
Must be Jaws.

Gomez is THE MAN!
He does a big balancing act between beeing a business man (witch lots of NDAs) end beeing as honest as he can and I respect that and appreciate it very much!!!
SO if he says "April" the game is set for april but you never know wtf happens.
Wasaga Beach, ON
Quoted from MacLean:George worked his magic with LOTR, so hopefully IMDN will be spectacular!
Found an old concert poster from my first Maiden show in New York back in '81 One of the best tours ever!
Maiden is Keith's game. It's next and the announcement is April. Can we all put an end to the speculation crap and nonsense posts !?!?!?
Art was seen in Stern facility since last spring of 2017. It will be amazing. Very stunned nothing has leaked, yet Deadpool pics have.

Us regular guys with no inside sources are left to speculating and rumors. I'm encouraged that you are so confident. I held on to my money at TPF with hopes that I can throw it at Maiden.

Up the ....wait what ??! Dead pool??
Quoted from Gryszzz:Kinda fitting
» YouTube video
I really hope they do the same thing with Maiden as they did with AC/DC using both singers and thier original recordings that represent the eras with a nice song mix. It's a dream title for me. I've had a placeholder LE order for almost a year.
Quoted from Gryszzz:CODE NAME:
TITANIUM MAN
lol thought it was "hardhat".
I always though it was “Copper Codpiece.”
Quoted from PinCrush:Wish I could upvote this 100 times...
My METLE left today with a great guy to a new home. I hope it was the right move!
your MoPLE would've looked pretty nice next to IMDN. Can you call him back, tell him you changed your mind?

What chu talking about will ?
Oh no you didn't !!!!
I pity the fool !
Kiss my grits
Did i do that ?

Yes! I was all of 14 and saw that show in a dive south of Chicago. 35 years later still remember as one of my favorite shows.
Sold my BIB, got Luci new in box last week and a nice chunk for a down payment on the Maiden. The way Pinball's going these days it's all about being prepared, competition is great but pricing is getting nuts.
Alice Cooper ordered.
Rock and Roll !
Still patiently awaiting Zeppelin & Sabbath. I'm all about rock 'n' roll and horror themes. I think even a Jimi Hendrix pin would actually do well.
Quoted from DS_Nadine:SO if he says "April" the game is set for april but you never know wtf happens.
This is very true in the "you never know WTF happens" department... An aquaintence that I don't see very often who works for Stern told me recently that he (paraphrasing) "thinks it's funny how everyone on the forums thinks they know what's coming when in fact, we don't even know from week to week because things get shuffled around so much for whatever reason."
Quoted from Gryszzz:I don't know whether to upvote or downvote ya.
I down voted initially, then pulled it. I have but one pin, METLE 199 that I will never sell. He might have 100 pins so it's not the same to him. I wonder what # his was??

What #? My opinion is bad move ha..

Beautiful collection of music pins!
Quoted from RCA1:Hmmmmm......
Must be Jaws.
They would have to use "Bruce"!! For the codename
Quoted from mnpinball:Teasing the license since 2013
And I’ve been on Stern’s ass about it since CAX 2012! 
I believe my first sentence to Gary (while of course wearing my Maiden shirt) was:
If you think AC/DC is gonna sell well; with a worldwide appeal, have I got a band pin for YOU!
Then hit him and his bald right-hand-man with the raw #’s.
I always thought it was going to be a Borg game too since Steve had no interest in making it.
Then,
From the heavens, KME went to work for Stern with an Archer whitewood under his arm and the rest is semi-future history!
Up the irons!
Quoted from Roostking:What #? My opinion is bad move ha..
Don't remember... 389 or something like that. It was necessary to move METLE to make physical room for Maiden - so thats what I did. It would be great if I had room to keep adding but the reality is I don't have space.

If you build it
They will fill it. 
Quoted from MacLean:Beautiful collection of music pins!
There is this also with the fender amp topper and speakers and custom sound package that plays Nugent music and fanfare and speech on switch hits.

Seriously? YOU are one of the biggest speculation offenders...
wow- my collection is virtually the same as yours. i even have a nugent with custom music and call outs.
Quoted from MacLean:your MoPLE would've looked pretty nice next to IMDN. Can you call him back, tell him you changed your mind?
Too Funny I just bought a MOPLE to put in my basement so when Iron Maiden comes and they are side by side I will instantly rule the universe
Quoted from Gryszzz:CODE NAME:
TITANIUM MAN
I am really looking forward to Maiden, but with that codename I would really get a kick out of it being Gremlins.
Quoted from MinusWorlds:Seriously? YOU are one of the biggest speculation offenders...
Nah, my man has facts. Lost track of the number of times he's told me something ahead of time that turned out true.

So is it coming or not?
Quoted from flamehead:So is it coming or not?
"maybe in April" and then "April, I think."
Quoted from rvdv:April 1st it will be announced !!
Yup , on a sunday 
Quoted from rvdv:April 1st it will be announced !!
Lets hope it doesn't turn into April fools 
Quoted from rvdv:April 1st it will be announced !!
Because nothing screams Easter like Iron Maiden.
Quoted from Guinnesstime:Because nothing screams Easter like Iron Maiden
I couldn't agree more. You know what does scream Easter on Easter, a dead jesus an egg hunt and chocolate eggs for the kids, its a laterial move.

I get that he is an "insider", but to be one of the biggest speculators and then tell people to stop speculating is ironic, no?
Bring on the downvotes, I don't care. Just cuz he's your bud or gave you info doesn't make him any less wrong.

Things change. I'd rather have information that is 90% correct as opposed to no info 100% of the time.
