    Quoted from LeMansFan:

    I’m in a similar position. Placed an order and deposit on GZ premium 2 months or so ago. Initially told August. Talked to my distributor just the other day and was told another run had been added to the schedule, meaning my game might get to me sooner. Fingers crossed…

    That's great news! I'm in the exact same boat as yourself. Add my fingers to the crossed list.

    Quoted from mbl1116:

    GZ prem shipping date this week

    That's what I've been waiting to hear!

    Quoted from PinMonk:

    The LE really should be the CE to just take the word limited out of there. Make as many as the market will bear. Multiple runs. Some people want that mirrored backglass, which ONLY comes on the top machine. Why limit it? Make the top one the Collector's model and make all the market wants, on multiple runs. Sure, you'll have a WWE LE dud with leftover stock stinking up the warehouse for years every now and again, but with a small initial run of the "normal" 500 or so, Stern can gauge the market and re-run more if the market demands. It really is leaving a not-insignificant amount of money on the table, and Stern hates that, so why are they ok with it now?

    This!...And put me down for one of those mirrored back glasses.

    Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:

    Not sure if this is encouraging or discouraging.
    GDZ Premium was supposed to be on the line last month, not this month. Perhaps it was pushed back a month.
    However, it was also supposed to be on the line next month, not this month, so perhaps it was pushed up a month.
    Glass half empty or half full? I'm guessing it was pushed back, not up. That should mean everything else will be pushed back.

    Was my understanding that they ran into a parts issue on the March run of Godzilla premium which left a lot of machines nearly finished but unfinished. Their plans were to finish that run after aiq was off the line. That April 11th build date seems to confirm this. Once those last few are finished they should go back to the previously released schedule. Just saying.

    Quoted from LeMansFan:

    So I didn't realize how literal the schedule we've been going off is. I talked with my distributor today and they pretty much confirmed the exact schedule that's being referenced on this thread. I do understand that people are privy to the schedule and they're sharing that information and that's where we're getting it. What I am surprised by is that the schedule is pretty much locked in for this year. I see Godzilla pro and premium only being run again in July (I've had a premium on order since December, most likely gonna miss the July run), so I assumed there'd be another run later in the year (no way July is the last time for this whole year!). Nope, word is that is in fact the last Godzilla run for 2022. Which I find crazy and hard to believe!

    This schedule https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/what-is-on-the-line-at-stern-pinball-delays/page/41#post-6902304
    Posted last week, shows a second half of may run of GZ pros and premiums and the run second half of July.

    Quoted from northerndude:

    You mean waiting for your pin to arrive as in horrible? Or something actually horrible happened?

    What do you care, didn't you just receive your machine this week I'm so envious. I just want to get flipping and modding on this game. GZ premium is the shits! Waiting since mid-December

    #2974 1 year ago

    Just got the call. My GZ premium ships tomorrow. Ordered in mid-December from a small local distributor. Life is good! I'm going to miss following this thread.
