Just got off the phone I'm one away from GZ premium in July. If I don't make the cut I'm going to bail and look for a afmr. Other dist. said I should see my JP premium this year.

I think most people understand the logistical part of it. It's the transparency part that is frustrating. GZ had deposits being taken for delivery in August even though they added a run my distributor still doesn't have enough for my order. He said he only had knowledge of what was being built to July.
So if I don't get it this year and the price goes up next year I have to pony up the rest. If the news flash gave us a little more info on production instead of just being a marketing flyer I think people would be more empathetic.
I just read an interview with Gomez about the Rush pin which he said most of the parts were sourced locally. https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20220313/what-a-rush-stern-pinball-scores-big-in-elk-grove-with-rock-stars-help-on-new-machine-line
I just know that the industry I'm in and all of the supporting industries surrounding us are starving for man power. We offer a 3000.00 signing bonus. I wouldn't doubt it if that was part of the equation also.
Back to the regularly scheduled programming. Jack do you have any info on the latest production schedule?
Quoted from pinheadpierre:Melissa (Cointaker) sounded pissed today when I spoke with her. Apparently they didn’t get very many. If you ordered from Cointaker and didn’t get an invoice from them tonight, you’re probably not getting one. I feel like giving the F up trying to buy this game.
I haven't heard from her so I'm probably out. I'm just hoping that my GZ comes in July from a different distributor.
Quoted from ufiti:Wow. I asked her on Friday and she said invoices would be going out to some people this weekend. Guess I wasn't included either! Not sure about you all, but i put my deposit down in August.
My distributor said GZ premium last week of July and I'm in his allotment. So if pro's go first they should be starting pretty soon.
Quoted from ticktockman:Do we know if Godzilla Premiums are going to be on the line this upcoming week?
Quoted from djsolzs:When did you get in line?
Start of January with delivery hopefully in August if it wasn't for the extra run I probably wouldn't have made it.
My Godzilla premium is showing up on Tuesday next week. I put a deposit in at the start of January and it looked like I wouldn't make the July cut. Thankfully Stern added some extra runs.
Any word on when Godzilla toppers are going to be put on the line. I'm sure that will be a total cash cow.
Stern video just popped up on my phone. Video of last call for three home pins maybe it's old news but it's the first time I've seen that video.
Quoted from JStoltz:Oh, for sure. He’s the perfect guy for the job. It’s just a bummer that the corner cutting is necessary and viewed as a “solution” when it’s really a limitation of the node board output counts.
I don’t think it’s unreasonable for this to be a topic of discussion, even if the perceived impact to the player/owner is minimal. It’s a pinball forum, after all.
Definitely a good topic for discussion but doesn't it seem like it should be it's own thread. The OP started this as what is currently on the line at Stern pinball but like a lot of threads it's totally gotten off track. Actually what is on the line this week they never had a factory Friday post.
Question when the distributors receive their factory schedule for upcoming months does it include accessories such as toppers and side armor
