Quite a lot is known about the parts on this game. I along with the other lucky early achievers who got in early have had our Lebowski’s for over three years now, and most of us have had various issues with the game which we’ve had to troubleshoot. The maintenance thread linked earlier is a valuable resource for those who have games incoming.

Yes, via USB. Similar process to the other manufacturers. Depending on when the games sitting at ARA were built, they may be running old code - and who knows if DP will be updating them before they ship.

I thought that The Dude Abides wizard mode wasn’t in the most recent code? Could be wrong, never qualified it.

Approximately, yes. I have #8 which was delivered in May 2016.

No differences. They were all made in the same run back in 2016. The 40 that are being sold via Coin Taker have just been sitting there for close to three years.

I do, yes. Will upload it somewhere if DP don't share it.

If I remember correctly, 40 was the number of games they could fit in a shipping container to the States.
