Quoted from insight75:I really wish they could consolidate. Lot of working looking at all threads.
Eventually they'll all consolidate to the owners thread. As more folks become owners, that's the thread they seek out and add to favorites.

Quoted from NeilMcRae:you mean, Ghostbusters, Batman 66, Star Wars, Elvira and Stranger Things to name but a few?
ok .... you are right ... my bad
Quoted from insight75:I just went through all of the JJP GNR threads here and counted all those that indicated they are in for a CE......Total is 987497535.
That figure include distributors who ordered X amount of each of the three models ?
LTG : )

hahaha. Its going to be quite interesting to see how all this shakes out.
Quoted from CoolCatPinball:LTG, what brand/type of rubber does JJP use in their machines? Thanks!
I believe silicone starting with Dialed In.
Others may chime in if they've seen something different.
LTG : )
Quoted from iceman44:Yeah that's gonna be a tough comparison for Stern and Ritchie/Sexton.
It'll be interesting to see if GNR affects the Stern pricing and current BOM model.
Zeppelin is gonna be in great demand but......
it won't.
I love GnR but imo Led Zep is on another plane.
I mean conversation of top rock bands of all time (Beatles, Stones, Zeppelin maybe Pink Floyd).
However GnR is really here and now, I mean the concert footage is great and in this decade not 40 years ago greatness like Zeppelin.
Plus JJP kind of ownes Stern for the build quality.
It’ll be interesting! Interesting!
Bring on the King!

Pink Floyd would/could truly be off the charts good...high "drop the mic" potential if done right IMO
Quoted from PinHigh1:Pink Floyd would/could truly be off the charts good...high "drop the mic" potential if done right IMO
Pink Floyd pin better have a 23 minute Echoes mode.
I think it will be difficult to make a music pin going forward and NOT copy JJP or look really bad compared to JJP. Things like drumsticks and pick spinners
and intense light shows should be in the next music pin from other manufactures. I think JJP put a whole lotta pressure on upcoming music pins. What can Queen and Led Zeppelin do in their pins? I don't know. Congrats JJP!
Quoted from PDX-Mike:I have talked to distributors who don't even know how many CE models they are going to be allotted?
I talked to mine and it seems the distros "request" a number of CE games and it is up to JJP to allocate if the number of games requested exceeds the quantity available.
Quoted from kermit24:I talked to mine and it seems the distros "request" a number of CE games and it is up to JJP to allocate if the number of games requested exceeds the quantity available.
Yeah it looks like some people are going to get some bad news in the next day or two.
Quoted from Mr68:I have a confirmed CE email and paid receipt from my distributor. I'm not very worried.
The paid in full receipt from my distro means I will sleep well tonight knowing my CE is confirmed!

I am really interested in hearing the song specific fills that each band member recorded for the game, and how they enhance the songs.
If you haven't listened to the interview yet, they mention that the band members made riffs for each song/key needed, so that when you nail a shot, it will play a sound that is perfect for the song you are working on. Might be 1 second, or several seconds, depending on shot/situation.
The level of detail that went into these details is astounding to me.
I love love love that a musician designed this game, and cared enough to get all those details right.
I think people complaining that there is no innovation are missing all the fricking innovation here. Toys certainly aren't this games draw. I agree.
What this game has is amazing access to content and a famous member of the band helping make the game as cohesive as possible. Add the amazing lights that are tied to the spinner and music, and this game will be a blasty blast for musicians and lovers of rock music.
The story about how Slash got Live and Let Die is so Rock and Roll. Let me give Sir Paul a ring real fast...
What's everyone hearing from their Distros on ship dates for the LEs? My distro initially thought by end of month, but when I called and paid in full today they said they're crazy swamped with orders and would have to get back with me on an eta

Thank you for sharing this. It definitely gives us a better glimpse of what the game play will be like, and how everything is integrated. Looks great!
Honestly, I think this is the most discussion I've ever seen about ordering the CE model. It might actually sell out.

It’s sold out now. Wasn’t earlier but is now
Quoted from nogoodnames222:Pink Floyd pin better have a 23 minute Echoes mode.
Awesome theme.
Every time ballsearch goes on, the sound system plays
Is there anybody out there?

I’m really curious to see if Stern is going to put in the effort with Zeppelin to compete with GnR.
Time will tell.

Unless Jimmy Page is a pinhead and is helping Steve Ritchie design the game then there's no way. Zeppelin is likely just as restrictive with licensing (if not more) than the Beatles.
Quoted from PDX-Mike:Yeah it looks like some people are going to get some bad news in the next day or two.
JJP will put them at the top of the list for the Collectors "Encore" Edition.

It would be a tragedy for LZ (and Stern) if it weren’t at least on par with GnR.
I grew up In the twilight of Zeppelin and ironically, in the prime of GnR. I’m not really a big fan of GnR but after seeing the game, I’m in on an LE. It’s just an amazing game from a design and integration standpoint - like no other game out there, period.
Just curious: has Jack himself appeared in any of the reveal stuff so far? I didn’t see him in anything. I know the investors have effectively taken over the company, and Jack hasn’t always made the best decisions, but it’s sad to see him tossed to the curb from his own company.
yesterday i was anxious all day. felt like a kid on christmas morning when i saw the GNR reveal i was like everyone else and scrambling to get a game. was it gonna be a LE or a CE?
where am i gonna get the money? should i sell some pins? go in the shoebox? i really didnt like the thoughts going thru my head. i felt i had lost control. took a breath and went to my arcade. flipped on my maverick pin and plunged the silver ball. waited the 10 seconds for the old belt to drive the paddle wheel around the lauren belle so i could get my ball back. smile to my face and back to reality. lately its always about the new pin coming out. more lights, more bling, more fanfare. what the hell was i doing. 5000 LE’s and plenty of time to order. played a few games and back down to earth. today i am looking forward to my friend fast eddie coming to my house with a FIRE! i purchased from another pinsider sagejr and who i consider a friend now. much much cheaper and more special to me than many NIB.
i see an LE in the future but when i am ready.

I was thinking the same thing and wondered if its because he is in New Jersey and the shop is in Illinois. I think he was responsible for elevating Eric Munier after he helped fix the WOZ light issues.

I agree that its smart to take a step back and have a little patience. Theme integration and presentation look off the charts awesome but I owe it to myself to play the game (and become acquainted with the rules) before I plunk down that kind of cash. It does look fantastic at first glance though and I have no doubt that JJP has a hit on their hands!

Are you saying "All we need is just a little patience"?

I think theres almost ZERO chance that will happen although I love LZ music.
Quoted from Pinball-Obsessed:Put a deposit down yesterday for an LE!
Might have it this weekend!!!
Can’t wait!
Damn man, nice! Where you order from?
Just uploaded the flyer, I 'think' the one they are printing is the one with 3 games, not the individual models, but I could be wrong:

yea scribbles, This is definitely a HIT. Word is the distributors are going Crazy. I paid $9500 for my next Pin to my Distributor on Friday. I had a feeling there was going to be Chaos on Monday. He verified today that He gets his LE allotment on Wednesday and will ship mine out on Wednesday or Thursday.

Well, that's encouraging news at least. Maybe if I call them enough, they'll ship mine asap to get me to quit bugging them

Cointaker
I’m hoping Friday but maybe next week, still waiting to hear back.
Thinking of buying an LE but would want it closer to Christmas. Too tempting to have it sitting in a box nearby lol. Is it risky to wait. We are newer to the hobby, but I have noticed that for example Stern doesn't constantly do runs of the new games. For example I feel like I saw Elvira premiums are not being made again until January. Looking to make this a family Christmas gift and don't know the timing aspect.
