GNR by a long shot. JJP is overdue for something with a bit of an edge. I really have no interest in Toy Story. It just seems to have a Wonka type feel to it with just more of the same. With that being said, I will always keep an open mind!
Well we would absolutely buy a collector’s edition Toy Story, but we have zero interest in GnR.
Toys Story, especially if it had full assets, would be the biggest no brainer ever for us.
Tough. I have no interest in Toy Story, but GnR already has a pin. I'm a big JJP fan, but neither of these themes are pulling at me (I love early GnR, but I can always buy the Data East machine). Then again I'm not a huge Rick & Morty fan, saw the pin, had to have it. GnR would be good to diversify Jersey Jack's image; get some sex, drugs, and rock & roll in there with all the fantasy movie themes.
Quoted from Stosel:Toy Story all the way, unless it has TS4 incorporated...if so it's dead to me.
Wow that’s pretty serious
Quoted from Mrawesome44:If toy story has no assets That game will be D.O.A.
We're talking about a Jersey Jack machine, not Stern, so it should be fine there.
Quoted from romulusx:Wow that’s pretty serious
I hate TS4 with a passion.
Quoted from Chetrico:For this poll, are "prefer" and "able and willing to buy now" the same thing
Let's not overthink it, which do you like better?
Quoted from Krupps4:I have nothing against Toy Story, but I’m kind of surprised to hear how many people are so excited about it. It would be interesting to know if having kids has a direct correlation to a high level of interest.
When it’s Toy Story or a shitty band from the 80’s, I’ll take Toy Story.

Sterns JP had essentially zero assets and it turned out pretty good

You can fake dinosaurs - no copyright on a trex. You can't fake classic characters from toy story. No way this game takes off without assets
Quoted from jawjaw:How about just come out with a game. Any game besides some bedazzled version of an old game. If you are a jjp fan I don't see how you can be picky.
I 100% agree, just put out a new game, we are all drooling for a new JJP game. I’ll buy either if they have anything near there other games. People are so hard up the are buying Hot Wheels and Stern dealers can barley keep any games in stock.

Do you have kids?
No interest in music pins in general nor a big enough fan of GnR to consider a pin.
Big Pixar/Disney fans so a Toy Story that integrates significant IP (not like JJPOTC) and a good design is an almost certain buy for us. Question probably becomes CE or LE. But not a buyer if the primary IP is the name and some cabinet art. We need Jim Hanks (Tom’s brother) doing custom Woody callouts, liberal use of footage from TS movies (don’t really care about TS4 though it has an actual pinball related pinball scene) and a solid playfield design with unique game related playfield toys.
Daughters are grown but TS would be an instant family favorite if done correctly.

Sterns JP was as close to the book as it was the movie. The JP movie was nothing like the book.
If Toy Story keeps the new JJP pricing structure, I'd be interested in a standard. I'm not buying any 10 or 12K pins, but it could be a first JJP for me. I was very happy to see them lower the entry level on Wonka and hope it stays at that $7500 rate. No interest in GNR.
Toy Story would be an instant buy for me if it's similar quality to JJP's other games (I bought POTC, DI, and Hobbit). I loved GnR back in the 80's but I have no interest in owning a GnR music pin. Toy Story is up there with JP and Harry Potter in terms of dream themes for my house.
I understand why people want extensive assets, and I agree that would make Toy Story a lot better. However JJP POTC doesn't have a tremendous amount of assets and it's one of my favorite games of all time.
Quoted from Krupps4:Do you have kids?
I do, but GnR was shitty long before I had kids.

Nope. Just love the movies. My step daughter likes them to, but she’s not going to play it more than a few times regardless. 10x better theme than GNR.

Was Pirates fine there?
Quoted from chuckwurt:Was Pirates fine there?
Well, compared to Jurassic Park, still a lot more assets, just sayin'.
Quoted from solarvalue:Well, compared to Jurassic Park, still a lot more assets, just sayin'.
What’s the point though? My point is both manufacturers have made games that lacked serious assets.
Since Toy Story is Disney, I don’t have high hopes for their luck in getting assets, but even if it’s like pirates, I’ll still be way more interested in it than GNR.

Well, they still got footage from the films in JJPOTC, but were not allowed to use anything with the actor's faces. Being an animated film (the first JJP has done), there are no actors' likenesses to deal with, so it might be easier to get the original scenes from the movies. However, I don't think it would be a complete disaster if all they got was the characters and they had to invent a completely new story for the game using sound alikes.

One thing that bugs me is you have video assets in JJP Pirates, but no audio. All these modes/scenes and just Gibbs voice. Was weird to me. Stern Pirates got more than that. Depp sound alike, other pirate voices, yo ho song, etc.
It’s more important to have the callouts and sounds down than the video imo. Either the real deal or great sound alikes.
Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:but no audio. All these modes/scenes and just Gibbs voice.
Been covered to death. The actors owned their own video and audio assets, so you'd have to deal with each and everyone. And after all that, Disney could still nix it from the game.
Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:Stern Pirates got more than that.
All the voices in the Stern game weren't the real actors. Elizabeth with that phony Irish accent was really bad. In the movie she was English.
