GZ Premium Cointaker update...
"they just loaded them on a truck today coming to us and we will ship them all out once they arrive."
Said thought mine would likely ship out to me next Monday, a week from today. No idea where I am on the list in general but ordered October 2021.
Where am I going to put these...?

That’s unexpected!
Quoted from FPagnotti:I messaged Stern Facebook account and they said Jurassic Park Premium was currently on the line.
I messaged them this morning about SW premium being on the line this month and got this ( Hi Shawn, you're already in the right place. If Star Wars goes back on the line, we'll be sure to post about it. Thanks! )

Do you think that means it is being built soon?

Seems counter productive to ship from Chicago to PA, then to NE. Would be faster and cheaper to drop ship from Stern to you. Almost every NIB I've ever bought was drop shipped right from Stern.

Do you pay sales tax?
According to troy here:
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/what-is-on-the-line-at-stern-pinball-delays/page/41#post-6902772
they only drop ship when the dealer tells stern they collected sales tax.
so cheaper for you, more expensive for your out of state dealer, if the pinball machine goes to the dealer first. (that's why some bigger dealers have warehouses next to stern and ship from there)

Cointaker has a warehouse in Chicago near Stern that they ship from

I agree, also, no sales tax and free shipping. Based on some of the other posts maybe it is due to the sales tax issue, I don't know. If drop-shipped to me probably be delivered to me in 2 days and would have been here this week, sounding like near end of next week instead. I'm just happy it is built and on the move, been waiting 10 months when all said and done...
Just got my invoice from Classic Game Rooms for my GZ Premium.
Hopefully it arrives by mid-next week or so.
EDIT:
And holy shit, delivery date is in 2 days on 8/4! I don't even know if my payment will have gone through by then lol.

That's how my Rush came to me.

What the hell do they mean "If"?
Quoted from jhallsuxatpinbal:What the hell do they mean "If"?
It probably just means that these Stern Facebook people aren't allowed to comment on what is going on the line or when.
Edit: That is to say, before it actually happens.

or if the parts come in when they are supposed to.

It's been on the line for five years already. Almost twice the length of a successful standard run, and three times the length of a shorter title run.
How long should it be produced?
Quoted from PinStalker:How long should it be produced?
Depending on license fees/restrictions and demand from distributors. TSPP and Elvis were run for at least 7-8 years, they used to do a batch of 50 each around Christmas every year for distributors home sales.
As long as they have demand ,and the license. I'm late to the game, but I'm also not the guy who will pay MSRP for a used machine or even close to MSRP if that machine is still in production. I'll wait, if for some reason I don't get one on the next run ( hopefully this month) and they stop building them oh well I missed out. Then I'd just do some looking and take my time for the right deal.

Just look at the Big Lebowski. Its been kicking around since what 2013 or 2014?
Little Shop of Games let me know my Godzilla Premium came in today. Should get invoice tomorrow. Cant wait!
Quoted from Pinbolls:I just got my shipment notification from Cointaker for GZ Premium!!!
Me too!
Quoted from MaxIsDead:Cointaker has a warehouse in Chicago near Stern that they ship from
I'm about 10 minutes from CT's warehouse. A few of my pins shipped from their warehouse to me. My DP from the latest run shipped from CT, not the nearby warehouse. Not sure where my GZ is coming from, but the earliest delivery date I received was Monday. So, it seems like it is delivering from CT if it takes that long.

It’s been on the list for August production since march. There are lots of pre orders out there. Distros know another run is coming. So I’m not sure why sterns reply says "if" when it should say "when in August".
Quoted from qbass187:Just got the word today. My invoice is up for my GZ premium!
That you put in for in JAN? I’m did mine in DEC through CT, so I wonder what’s up.
Quoted from desertT1:That you put in for in JAN? I’m did mine in DEC through CT, so I wonder what’s up.
For what it’s worth this order isn’t from CT. I got on 2 separate list. When I talked to Melissa recently she said my order (placed on 1/02/2022) wouldn’t be up until late this year.

Ah, ok. If it was through CT, that would be an issue, but with somebody else it really isn’t since each distro will have different lengths of lists.
Yeah I got put on a list for GZ Premium in early June, and mine arrives tomorrow.
I just sent emails to some distros after playing one over memorial day weekend at Galloping Ghosts and one of them said they may have some for the July run and if I was interested he'd put me on the list. Then on July 9th I got an email from him saying he has one for me if I wanted it, and I hopped on it by placing deposit and the invoice yesterday.
Quoted from desertT1:Ah, ok. If it was through CT, that would be an issue, but with somebody else it really isn’t since each distro will have different lengths of lists.
Agreed, that would be an issue.
Don’t give up hope though! The guy I got this one through just found out today about his allocation. So I’m guessing they’re boxing and invoicing what came off the line last week.
Quoted from KneeKickLou:Anyone hearing on Godzilla Pro orders?
Melissa informed me via phone last Thursday that Pros were on the line. They’d be sending out invoices once they received them.
Looks like the Premiums were on a different truck.

Great thanks, I don’t have a CT order but my distro said I should get one from the July run. Fingers crossed I’ll hear soon
I hope allocation news for the rest of the year hits soon.
All those final run games and people wondering if they will get one.
Quoted from desertT1:That you put in for in JAN? I’m did mine in DEC through CT, so I wonder what’s up.
If it's who I think it is...good luck dealing with him.
Does anyone have any idea what the production schedule for the rest of the month is? Seems like it has changed from the last update a few weeks ago.
