Quoted from Dr-pin:maybe they´ve designed a new lube for pinball machines?
This would make sense. They send it to you before you write the check for your new NIB game.

Quoted from Puffdanny:Is anyone else hearing a rumor about Thunder From Down Under ?
I have heard this too! However I was told it was this version.

I thought I wasn't going to like this one. Boy was I wrong, I have a blast every time I play it.
Quoted from Dee-Bow:I'm from Canada..ill say it, Rush suck! Bring on Black Sabbath
You do realize that you will now be hunted down and expelled from the country right?
Quoted from Indusguys:. However, if Lyman is on Rush I will probably get one, in Lyman we
Your Canadian. You HAVE to get one!

Quoted from SLAMT1LT:So glad I'm a virtual pinball game designer, I can make all these 'dream pins' in a heartbeat. I can't imagine the pain you guys go through waiting year after year for your pin of choice to show up, only to suffer crushing disappointment
But in the end you have a virtual game. I'll stick to real machines.

Quoted from John_I:Speaking of Iron Man VE; is there any truth to a possible small batch of those soon?
Seems unlikely that we will see a vault this year with the huge backlog Stern has.
Quoted from John_I:If you look at it the other way it might make sense. With all sorts of parts and supply shortages, Stern might actually be in a position to use some parts on hand to make a VE since its different electronics than the current running games?
This is very possible. They would need a bunch of parts though. I would assume the chip shortages would effect the older boardset too. Maybe not.
Quoted from finnflash:Might have no footage a la JP
Even if this happens it will be Pinball Browser to the rescue.
Quoted from Goronic:I wouldn't mind seeing a BTTF as well...but like someone else said earlier Stern can't / won't get good audio/video/voice assets - so it will likely suck ass!
Also said earlier, Pinball Browser will go a long way to fixing that.
Quoted from Walk:When Stern remakes a vault edition do they ever update them? I.E. The Walking Dead and potentially replacing the DMD for the updated LCD?
No
Quoted from Lounge:I thought they had a batch of JPs to crank out?
I guess that could be post JP run.
The JP2 should be on the line this week or next.
Quoted from gorditas:Any idea when the "May production" BM66's are coming to fruition?
Sorry. I haven't heard anything on BM66.
Looks like Automated has some left for the August build. Seems to be $500 over the current MSRP though.
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:Stern did that for Elvira also.
It's an additional $500 above that. Listed at $8900
Quoted from MrTilt:Strong source tells me its a music pin QUEEN
I don't think Stern has this licence. It's been said here that Pinball Brothers have it. Stern's next music pin is believed to be Rush

Quoted from chickenscratch:My point is if you wanted to throw money at any sort of NIB from Stern in 2021, you so far had one option: Mando (and IMDN)
There have been runs of Deadpool, GOTG, EHOH, JP and more this year.
Quoted from KnockerPTSD:Agreed,
They also ran quite a few Turtles and some more Strangers and LZ earlier this year.
I knew I forgetting a bunch! Add BM66 to the list too (next mo. I believe)

Quoted from rai:I just heard from dealer that 4 ‘August’ titles have been pushed back to Q4.
Looks like the drought continues.
What 4?
Quoted from RikeIsland:I just hope all the orders that have been placed before this expected price increase stay the same. If they don’t then this parts shortage will be very convenient for Stern because ever NIB pin has been pushed back for months.
Would not be the first time. They did this on EHOH and even people with paid deposits had to pay the $500 increase. This is because Deposits are with your dealer NOT Stern. That being said, it sucks for sure.
Quoted from RikeIsland:EHOH is exactly what I have on order too.
Hopefully since the price has already increase it won't.
Quoted from freeplay3:If all this is true then we won't need to worry about games being back ordered.
I don't know. We are all like a bunch of crack addicts that need a fix.

Quoted from pinmister:not enough mention of Goonies
Looks like this theme will be available to a new company who will actually make games soon.
Quoted from John_I:I wonder how much Godzilla LEs will be going for?
If I had to take a wild guess, $11.5k
Quoted from Wolfanoz:I think they'll abide by a certain date deadline for what you paid in preorder vs. price (say you did it a few months ago).
They didn't when they raised the price by $500 on Elvira. The problem is the deposits are with your dealer and not Stern.
Quoted from skink91:I just called Cointaker. The JP2 sale price is indeed 7595 + 1000, due to an upcoming price increase.
Man I'm super happy I just got my Jurassic Park premium this weekend. I got the last July build on my dealers allotment.
Quoted from starfighter:not sure by how much though.
Looking like $600 on pro and $1000 on premium. Will be interesting to see if this is the MSRP or street price.
Quoted from Kkoss24:Why was EHOH’s price jacked up before all this ?
Because it's a "boutique" title. Was always more then the cornerstone premiums.
Quoted from Kkoss24:Wasn’t it just a couple hondo more early on ?Then jumped again ?
That's correct. I think it was 300 and jumped 500. Looks like it's going up again to $9200. Ouch.
Quoted from Kkoss24:And awaaaaaay we go
Yeah but you get a super deluxe topper with it!
31 plays? Why even bother buying it. We unboxed our Jurassic Park premium on Sunday night and have over double that in plays.
Quoted from crujones4life:The $1600 difference between Pro and Premium just became $2000. Wonder if that will push more people towards Pros?
I think it will come down to feature set as it does now.
Quoted from freeplay3:What inventory? The reason prices are high is because there is no inventory.
There's some spotty inventory out there but your right not much. Soon to literally be none of anything.
Quoted from hiker2099:What makes a pinball machine boutique?
Batman 66 and Elvira are boutique titles. No pro version
Quoted from KnockerPTSD:Its a cool idea but i dont like where they have implemented it. I want my apron to have art not qr codes. Stick it on the coin door or something.
I agree. The apron looks fine for location use but not for home use.
Quoted from Raegor:What I don't understand is when I have a signed invoice with a distributor and a deposit down, the game has been delayed past their expected delivery date, and then they tell me it's going to cost me more?
It definitely not fair and I think a lot of people are going to flip when they figure out what's going on. There's a ton of people waiting on games.
Quoted from Waxx:Happens every time. I remember when all the BM66 and Elvira
It's going to be really painful for the few STILL waiting on Elvira and BM66, an additional $1k on top of the $500 earlier this year.
Quoted from KSP1138:My distributor has AIQ premium, with the new insider connected platform, listed on their website as in stock and ready to ship at the +1k price.
Who is your distributor?
Quoted from atum:All that to say that it won't matter because if someone does cancel their order, someone else will step up and pay the increased price. Welcome to the current world of pinball!
Exactly. The manufacturers know this and know they can get away with it.
Quoted from screaminr:Any annual fees? Do you think .
I'd hope the hardware cost covers at least a year or two.
Quoted from screaminr:Hopefully for everyone , it's free forever , to equal JJP .
I agree 100%. However, this is from the same company selling $1k toppers.
Quoted from Wolfanoz:Still think this would make a great pin
images (resized).jpegQuoted from rai:It’s kind of nuts. BM66 was $7700 iirc now $8300
If BM66 is going to follow EHOH price like normal then the next batch of them will be $9200.
I just wish they would hurry up. I can't wait to see Elwin's next game. I just got a Jurassic Park premium and I'm in love! Bring it on!
Quoted from Ty-Arnold:. I did not think they would fit in 2 more titles by end of the year.
Elwin's game very soon and Borg late December
Quoted from crujones4life:Where's my fecking teaser?!
Here you go.
177-1776988_godzilla-logo-png-svg-black-and-white-download (resized).pngQuoted from PinballManiac40:Same day as Godzilla is revealed, we will see many ask what's next
Good news is we already know the answer, Rush by Borg.
Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:Will it get another $1k price increase that put its price tag around $9.4k?
It's going up to $9195 according to Cointaker
The comments on YouTube are pretty funny. The Godzilla fans don't seem to happy that's it's a pinball machine and not a movie.
Quoted from plasticbugs:What I want to know is how are these titles leaked so early and so often?
Cause they want it to leak. Then we talked about for months and get all hyped up.
Quoted from rai:The pro doesn’t look too bad either.
I think they ripped out way too much.

Quoted from moat-pin:I’d be thrilled to see a Beetlejuice pin
Been mentioned before that Stern had this license but none of the designers wanted to take on the project
Quoted from blueberryjohnson:But now there's a new stern designer that does like it...
Then bring it on! I think is would make a great theme.
Quoted from Prince66cali:If Stern makes a Rush pin they are idiots. Seriously. Try to justify it anyway you want.
Pretty sure they know what they are doing.

Quoted from mbrave77:Ive thought about that, but at this point pinball is so hot and games sell out immidiately anyways. Theres not a ton of supply. theyll sell the games they get either way.
You should definitely be high on the LE lists. You have bought a bunch. ANY dealer would love to have you as a client.

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:The newest rumor is Kapow has Beetlejuice license.
Stern had this a few years ago and none of the designers wanted to make it.

Quoted from beelzeboob:a picture of Pac-Man humping a pinball machine:
I will never be able see this the same again
Quoted from kool1:Very disappointed if they don't at least tease something today.
Seems like that ship has sailed. Major bummer
Quoted from newpinbin:What is the next VE going to be?
They have a giant list of games they need to build before any VE would make sense.

It's real for sure! Can't wait.
Quoted from J85M:It would need a mystery machine somewhere

Quoted from kool1:I would never deal with them again -
I would and WILL! Marshall and crew are great. I don't have an issue with him doing this. Takes time to manage these lists and then you get the credit if your wishlist game becomes available.
Quoted from crujones4life:Just bought 20 spots for BTTF!
Only 20? I figured you would be in for at least 50! I hope you get your dream theme soon.
Quoted from NashtyFunk:Elwin's next game will be the April release next year.
Perfect timing for Jaws! By summer they would out in good numbers.

COME ON MAN! I just spit my drink all over my keyboard.
Quoted from unlockpinball:Is a final run of Stranger Things Premium happening?
Doesn't look like it. The game is retired.
Quoted from kool1:I'm still surprised by this as I think there would be big demand.
Show is smoking hot!
Same. Prices are are also skyrocketing on the used market. If they could make the premium more reliable, I would be all over getting one.
Quoted from PinStalker:This would sell better than Mando in this market for sure. Insane.
By a VERY large margin.

Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:Finally, there are a few really weird ones like Heavy Metal which came in a Home Pin cabinet, but with a premium price.
Heavy Metal was not in a home pin cab

Problem is JAWS was already used as the code name for Jurassic Park.

Quoted from kool1:Stern doesn't seem to make older movie themes other than Star Wars anymore.
and hopefully, Jaws!
Quoted from BeeGeeMtl:Hmmmmmmm, right around the time that Stern would be announcing their next pinball game, eh?
The current thinking is Jaws in spring 2023
Quoted from frankmac:Safe to say this guy would be in on a Jaws pin.
These would be a bitch to clean
Quoted from J85M:It’s beloved in the U.K. I was born 86
Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:Born in 86
You guys are making me feel old.
Quoted from SLCpunk2113:Wait until you realize kids born in the year 2001 are legally drinking a bars.
I am! My son turned 21 in February.
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Wait until you see these show up, they are called grandkids!! Im soooo old
Not quite there yet but not far off. I hope your getting them flipping young!
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Ya they love pinball, ehoh is their fav.
Good man! Both of my kids started playing as soon as they could get arms around the machines. Now 21 and 25 and they both play in a league.

You HAVE to get an LE! It's destiny
Quoted from crujones4life:I just made a spot for my BTTF.
No. No. NO!
You made a spot for your BTTF LE!
Quoted from Rizmo:That way we can see what it is and more speculation on who is the lead designer
Venom. Eddy.
Quoted from Rizmo:There still is Eddy and Gomez and Nordman
Nordman has LONG been gone from Stern
Quoted from SLCpunk2113:I still think it’s a Danger design and it’s not Bond, Venom, or BTTF
Eddy next.
Quoted from manadams:He's not streaming very much lately, guessing it's cause he's busy getting next cornerstone ready for reveal. Don't think it's set in stone that he has to follow Eddy, we will see.
I don't think he is. Gomez should be after Eddy.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:The fact that both TMNT and LZ were both very recently discontinued is interesting.
I think it has more to do with these games not being great sellers.
Quoted from Rizmo:I think it would be Gomez. His last “corner stone” was the Beatles.
Gomez is no longer a designer. He is EVP/Chief Creative Officer. He stepped in to do the game Steve Richie was slated to do. Next game is Eddy. Then Gomez.
Quoted from Gutterghoul:Play the available pins and spend time with friends and family?!
Let's not get crazy!

Quoted from big-c66:I tell ya they keep going up like this the common man so to speak want be able to afford pins
The common man has not been able to afford pins since the first pin was made.
Quoted from Tommy-dog:I am unsure of how much of the Steve Ritchie 3-flipper game version I saw originally is still left. Gomez, I assumed, changed a lot of it.
None of it. He said on a resent podcast that he started over from scratch.

No you wont. Look at all the times people say they will buy a theme just based on that sight unseen. We are a weird bunch!
Quoted from acupunk12:Kids destroy pinball machines. Better they don’t go near them until they learn to respect people’s property lol
That has not been my experience. My kids (now 22 and 27) have always had pins in the house growing up. Both always respected the machines and my oldest now has her own pin in her appointment.
Quoted from ExSquid:This was months ago, my lineup is changed but my daughter LOVES the games. Will even pull up her stool and watch me play.
This is like a flashback for me! My daughter has been playing since her arms could get around the machine. She also had a step stool like your daughter. As I mentioned she is now 27 and has a LOTR at home (wedding gift from me) and plays in tournaments. She also started the local Belles and Chimes chapter and putting on another tournament in a few weeks. Pinball has been great for our family. Nice to see that you seem to be on a similar path!
Quoted from ExSquid:Gotta keep it going!!! That’s an awesome wedding gift ! Yeah she’s in a “ Spider-Man “ phase so I “accidentally” showed her VENOM so ….. yeah. But my money is being saved for JAWS or BTTF . Whenever that happens .
Hunt one down on location. Me and my kids have driven all over for pins and always make it an adventure.

They have said in the past that they had this license but none of the designers wanted it. Maybe things will change, I think it could be fun.

Agreed. Spooky would be perfect for this

Quoted from underlord:I’m sane. I’ve been tested.
Where at? I am looking for this test myself.
Quoted from ExSquid:We'll see, I have my price points if its over that ill look for something else. Simple.
With game sales significantly slower then a year ago, I am guessing that these will be priced at the current pro/premium level
Quoted from crujones4life:Stranger Things Premium will have an updated/improved projector in it! Thanks Kaneda!
Seems unlikely as dealers have the original ones back in stock after a very long period of it being NLA. Theory has it Stern ordered more for the upcoming run. Would be super cool if it does though!
Quoted from crujones4life:Wait a minute...he didn't say Homepin! You dirty dogs! I nearly had a stroke!
Had me going too. Was about to call EMS in Cedar Hill and tell them to send a few ambulances to your house.
Quoted from crujones4life:Haha...getting my balls busted here is one of the best parts of this site!
What are your thoughts on the chance that DP may have this?
Quoted from crujones4life:I've never played TBL but have heard good things (recently at least).
I have a TBL and the build quality and support is AMAZING. Its also a super cool game. I would love to see what they could come up with if they have the license.
Quoted from beltking:A lot of stranger things hitting the market today on Facebook.
A lot of mark downs coming on them tomorrow
Quoted from PinMonk:Gomez had mused about fixing the TK lock "if" it was rerun (that was pretty clearly a "when").
Doesnt seem like he lived up to that.
Quoted from PinMonk:Has this been confirmed? I've only seen no mention of it, not that it wasn't addressed.
No one seems to know.
Quoted from PinMonk:Gomez told me "There are a series of improvements in the game." so trying to get some clarity.
Would be nice if we can get an idea of what that is! Even the website doesnt list or show it having IC. This is the laziest thing Stern has done to date
Quoted from PinMonk:Dunno. Gomez confirmed to me there are improvements to the game without detailing them. I guess we find out in Nov.
Seems odd that they would "make improvements" and have zero mention of them. Not like they are selling $10 toys.
Quoted from crujones4life:Don't worry guys...I ain't going anywhere until this is confirmed then I will mosey on over to ~~~THE~NEXT~DUTCH~~~ thread.
I really think this will be the best case scenario for you! Sure it will cost a ton more but will also be loaded. Only issue is how long the wait will be.
Quoted from mnpinball:Hey, when I make a post, the info is accurate at the time I gather the information regardless of what a company decides to do or licensing months going forward is out of my control.
NO ONE has the track record you do. PEROID!
