The Big Lebowski
Dutch Pinball, 2016Quoted from luvthatapex2:So they are making Lebowskis for at least the next 13 months. How long will they be made? Guess as long as there are new orders coming in?
I heard somewhere that they have the license through 2023 so that's as far as they can take orders, but I can't say for certain if there's any truth to that or not.

Or they could just continue to renew the license as they have done before.
Does anyone know how many games they are currently pushing out per month? I know they had wanted to speed up production when they moved to the new facilities a while ago, but with the pandemic and on-going supply issues, they were unable to do so.
Just curious... 
Quoted from brandonx76:I'm in! Reservation placed..just heard from Melissa at Coint Taker 9 months ETA - see ya'll in ...well near 9 months I hope!
cheers

1 year anniversary. Patiently waiting...got my Aliens before (last week) to tied me over...I dont want to rush the masters at Dutch Pinball of course
wait (resized).jpgQuoted from ThePinballCo-op:Today, March 11 2022, is my one year anniversary for when I put a deposit down.
Still haven't been asked to pay in full, still no invoice, fyi.
I ordered mine in Feb 2021 and I just received mine last week. It came in perfect condition minus some switches that needed adjustment. The only complaint was I was told 3-4 months when I ordered (production was supposed to be increased) and it took almost 15 months. I feel the “queue” changes at times. I was told a couple of times you are on the next shipment. Would be nice to have some transparency where you at in the queue and the numbers they are receiving.
Quoted from jpk1972:Well if it makes you feel any better I am at 7 years and counting on waiting for my Lebowski. EA#187
That does not make me feel better. 
Quoted from ThePinballCo-op:I paid nearly 4 weeks ago.
Sooo.... any day now, right?
Same this wait after full payment seems longer than the wait from the deposit lol. ME WANT NOW

I keep waiting for a photo of the group of games before they get sent out like in months prior, but I'm starting to doubt that'll happen.
I hope I don't get a call in the middle of a random day that's from a delivery driver saying "I'm here" and I'm not where "here" is to accept the game. That happened to others in this thread and then they had to wait several days more.
Booo! Give us updates!
Quoted from Rensh:OK. Checked for you. Havent been to the factory in some time so no pictures, sorry
As follows: EA 77&79 are now in transport to the US. On productionline being built now are EA80+81
I would assume 77 & 79 in transport would also mean the March 2021 order group is also on its way.
I skipped over this post somehow.
Added 17 months ago:Do we not even get a shipping notification or tracking number?
Did anyone receive a tracking number? Is that going to be happening?
I'm worried -- based on previous replies -- that the game will just show up as a surprise and I won't be around to accept it, since the place I need it shipped to is now different than when I originally ordered it.

You should contact CT on this topic. All shipments go via CT. There are no direct shipments DP -> Endcustomer.

Thank you for this. I emailed Melissa.
To all you future TBL owners who put down a deposit around March last year: "Your game is shipping from the Netherlands this week, so should be another 10 days or so"
I got FedEx tracking ans then it asked me to pick an exact time to have it delivered. Ill have it tomorrow. 3-11-21

Was this through email or phone call?
Quoted from Mneubey:My initial deposit was April 4th, 2021 and just got my invoice today May 4th, 2022.
Excited!
Sweet!! I only have 7-8 more months!
Quoted from ThePinballCo-op:Was this through email or phone call?
Similar situation for me, its a race to see what is ready to be paid for, first!
TBL - Ordered 11/2021
Elvira HoH - Ordered 1/2022
Godzilla Prem - Ordered 3/2022
There is a real good chance, they all come due, about the same time. I'm hoping....that isn't the case.
I've been looking for a suitable psychedelic topper, and finally found it- the Hypercube. Here's a video:

It's quite large, and risks overwhelming the pin, but I like.
I'm going to try the sound-activated mode this weekend. Disco cube

Sorry, not my taste but he, all that matters is that you like it

WTF ?????
Quoted from ThePinballCo-op:To each their own, man.
If you will it, Dude, it is no dream.
Did you get your machine ETA?
Quoted from duke-of-bourbon:Good news for all orders. Ordered 6/12/21 paid 5/9/22. Less than a year.
Boom. Just paid mine too....similar timeframe.

That's great! I ordered mine mid-July....so maybe I am not too far out.
For those of you that recently paid invoice, did Cointaker give you the option to get the lighted apron installed from the factory? I know it’s now a selectable option when placing the initial deposit on the website, but I ordered mine prior to the website update.

No, I had to email Melissa to add the option to mine and then she reinvoiced me. It was an extra $600.
For all you guys paying in full right now, the last batch of people who paid in full last April still have not received their game.
FYI
Deposit 4/29/21 - Invoiced 5/9/22...was told roughly 40 days out. Me thinks we're all in the same/upcoming batch. Getting excited
Quoted from Mneubey:Any idea if this Is just April people, or may people as well?
No idea, sorry. DP doesn’t know which TBL goes to whom. That’s for CT to whom they are sold after all.
Work on playfield new builts in process. Have no picture of it but new cabinets were into production as well
If just the part supply would be better and more steady ….. Can not imagine the hassle stern has to go through.
Oh, people are there. Just having a break.
Oh I think I see mine!!
Quoted from Rensh:Visited factory today. TBLs ready for shipment this or next week depends me on transporters schedule. Also ready for boxing are also 2 EA.
