    Quoted from bigehrl:

    according to Gary, their best game.

    Remember when that was always Jack's line about the latest Stern offering?

    "Indiana Jones is magnificent. I LOVE IT!!! Derek, buy it immediately!"

    How times have changed!

    Quoted from WeirPinball:

    c'mon Stern - open the wallet so none of these games get damaged.

    If one of these games is "damaged" by a loose coin box, it will be the first time in history that's ever happened.

    Quoted from beltking:

    Was told Elvira 40th should be done tomorrow.

    People forget that Stern can run off a small batch of games like that in one day.

    Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:

    Do we know what the limiting factor for Stern and manufacturing is these days? Is it labor, cabinets, parts, chips? The other manufacturers don't seem to have the same problem.

    They all have the same problem, and of course, none of the other manufacturers have the same amount of models and orders in the pipeline so it's a tough comparison at any rate.

    Quoted from WeirPinball:

    Wish it was just an annual increase - history shows a bump with most new runs

    Think of all the awesome F U Stern threads we’ll get!

    Quoted from WeirPinball:

    probably a test pin

    Right cause it’s 1995.

    I don’t think “test pins” are a thing anymore.

    #405 2 years ago

    Stop saying things that make no sense and I’ll stop commenting on them, pretty simple.

    Test Pin?! The last stern pin “on test” was probably Ripleys.

    Rush games are being produced. We’ve seen pictures. That means people are getting their games.

    That’s how Stern does things, remember?

    Quoted from Elvishasleft:

    OK I'll tell that to my distro who just picked some up from Stern for those who had them on order.
    Maybe the boxes are empty?

    They are test boxes.

    Quoted from tgarrett09:Damn, need to wait another month now.. Do we REALLY need more bonds in May?

    You cannot stop the Bond Juggernaut!!! You can only hope to contain it.

    Quoted from kermit24:

    Oh, they can, and usually do recover. But it does take some time. Walking Dead was called Walking Dud because the code was so crappy. Batman 66 was literally a box of lights. Stranger Things was pretty bad out of the gate also. They all were not desirable in the beginning.

    Ha yeah.. "Once a game gets a bad code reputation, it never recovers!!"

    Yup...except for these half dozen recent examples...
