Quoted from MrTilt:

Any one buying DP Pro? Ordered but no idea if and when they will be produced again
Mando Pro arriving mid Septmeber cant wait!

Hearing December, which I’m hopeful for as well - because I don’t want to miss out on what may be the last run.

Quoted from EchoVictor:

Ever play a Williams Defender?
The LH outlane kicker is manually activated by a second button on the LH side. You have to get the timing juuuust right. Too early or too late, and you waste your chance. Have to re-light it to try again.
Very enjoyable feature.
Later,
EV

never seen it, but sounds like fun

What if Stern snatched the Godzilla license just to add credence to the fake codename for their next title?

Haha - the "Godzilla" license for pinball would most certainly be Harry Potter. Wouldn't that be a twist?!

Stern needs to quit putting out movie themed recycled pinballs. and come up with some original titles. it's also time they put out some limited edition Virtual Pinball machines. . iam in the hobby of real pinball and virtual I want the best of both worlds. a Prince Pinball would be great. if Kiss can have one out. Prince deserves ones too. he had record sales over 100 mill just like Kiss.

Quoted from nicoy3k:

0% chance that a major movie studio would risk information leaking around a blockbuster movie to make a few hundred grand on a pinball machine...

I agreed with this when I first read it but the first matrix trailer dropped today and I love baseless speculation.

I could totally believe they planned to release that last Christmas and would start to release more details under nda on a need-to-know basis. By now, they expected to have the second trailer out and the third not far off. The promotional/licensing blitz would be redlining giving away most/all of the major plot points of the movie other than the ending/final battle. The perfect time to slot in the pinball machine which will almost entirely be based on information already available in the trailers. The ending? A wizard mode that won't even be implemented until a code update after the movie has released.

Then normal movie production issues along with covid delays throw everything into flux and the licensing/promotional people are in triage mode 24/7. They have to release a few details they'd prefer not to so the art/toys/callouts can be planned, but Stern doesn't need much as the general design of a matrix pinball game writes itself.

Sunday night the trailer is finalized and scheduled for youtube premier on Thursday. Monday morning their social media intern uses their only day off this year to browse twitter and sees the buzz about Stern's Big Announcement(TM), realizes this stupid pinball company is going to ruin everything and starts burning down phones until they find someone to call Gary and tell him in no uncertain terms they have to reschedule the reveal for next week.

So is Godzilla Godzilla or is Godziilla a codename for "We're finally making a Matrix Pin. A cultural phenom that anyone more than casually interested in pinball between 98 and the mid 2000s thought about how it would play whether they liked the movies or not, and every professional and aspiring designer likely has a pitch for just in case it ever comes up, let alone Elwin who won his first PAPA world championship the same year the original released."

These kind of movies leave me totally confused at the end ..... BTTF and why toilets below the equator flush in the opposite direction are beyond me.

Will it get another $1k price increase that put its price tag around $9.4k? Those $2k toppers are really taking a hit. Prices for high demand, out of stock toppers will have to rise ....

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

It's going up to $9195 according to Cointaker

Quoted from Only_Pinball:

Gotcha and lowest priced EHOH premium on Pinside market is $12.5k. It would seem that as popular as this title is, and with so many people liking it and not having one, that Stern will make these for another 3 - 4 years.

Look at all three pics and tell me what they have in common. Do you think any of these pins might have that as a feature?

Here’s a Bond for your collection

If true, I hope Stern severely punishes Cointaker.

#20970 2 years ago
Quoted from KYLEDM5:

To be fair, Stern had previously said the public reveal would have happened by now. Cointaker probably just had an e-blast prepared based on Stern's reveal timeline and forgot to revise it, or an older version went out by mistake. These things happen when reveals get delayed at the last minute.

#20971 2 years ago

That UK Pub and games place accidently disclosed Godzilla too, last week

#20972 2 years ago

Funny how we are on the eve of the next game, but are still awaiting initial production on official accessories from the 'last' game. Where is my Mando art blades and shooter rod stern! Lol.

With this being said, I am still super excited for next weeks Godzilla reveal and also look forward to the manufacturing challenges hopefully being improved in 2022!

Why should they be seriously punished???? IMO that’s an idiotic statement. There’s no harm, everyone knows it’s Godzilla and I’m guessing knowing Cointaker’s Impeccable reputation it was just overlooked. That mentality is the sue everyone mentality. Maybe your Robert Mueller in disguise

yea lets hope Stern doesnt take it out on cointaker as they are amazing. Honest mistake as they were suppossed to show this off 2 days ago. Technically didnt the distributer call also get moved? So technically wouldnt they not have been told yet officially?

I assumed the comment was a joke because otherwise it's just a completely ridiculous thing to say. Especially in a thread where we actively speculate about upcoming games.

That would be a great pinball!!

Now having John Vernon as Curt Mooney in a "Killer Klowns from Outer Space The Pinball" certainly gets my attention!

Not like it is a surprise.

#20988 2 years ago
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

Until announced, the details around Godzilla are subject to change. The one thing I wish Stern would do differently is to double the number of LE’s offered. There were 650 Avengers LE’s and 750 Mando LE’s and each was oversubscribed so much that the market place has them listed for $3k-$5k above list price. Having too few LE’s drives the secondary price up too much. This is not good for the market nor the buyer. To solve this the number of LE’s offered has to rise.
Would 1000 LE’s have been too many for Avengers and Mando? No those titles were hot and could have used 1,250 LE’s to meet demand imo. Now Godzilla is on the doorstep and we are led to believe Stern will announce 1000 LE’s. I say that is not enough and they should announce 1,250 instead. Then Stern could sell 1000 through it’s distributors and 250 directly to customers on day 2, after the first wave sells out on day 1. At 1,250 LE’s sold, that would make Godzilla the best selling LE to date and maybe the start of seeing 1k -2k LE’s offered for all models going forward. This gets more high margin games into the market place and earns Stern a few million dollars extra x 3 releases a year = $6M extra profit and makes a few thousand customers more happy each year. Bond and BTTF could each have 2k LE’s sold. How many Harry Potter LE’s could sell - 5k plus 1k SLE’s? That one is the motherlode.

Doesnt that defeat the purpose of LEs? I only have one LE and that is MAndo. I would love to have all LEs in collection but I understand that I have to pay more for ones I want. IF there were that many would it be worth it?

Maybe I am alone but seems like you want LE quality at premium price?

Heard a rumor the next three Stern games are as follows:

1) Godzilla
2) Back to the Future
3) Black Sabbath

BTW... Don't be shocked when you see TOY STORY from JJP then Matrix. I think JJP has the Matrix!

That’s the first rumor I’ve heard of Stern actually doing a Black Sabbath pin. I really hope it’s true cause I’m much more interested in a Sabbath pin than Rush.

Not well known around the world especially Australia
