I think it's too early for a new Star Wars pin. The force awakens, while visually entertaining, was pretty weak. The plot goes like this, where is Luke Skywalker? A resistance planet gets blown up. Kylo Ren kills and betrays his father, Han Solo. The resistance destroys a newly built Death Star. The resistance find Luke Skywalker standing on top of a mountain. The end.

Not a lot of material to base a pin around. Maybe after the next 2 installments there will be some juicy material, but the force hasn't even "awakened," ...yet.

Do you have to play the ic games connected? Once you download the "unique" topper software extras, do you ever need to login to anything again? Are the topper features disabled if you don't login when you play?

I bought a Venom and love it. I downloaded the latest version and didn't have to use a USB drive. Very nice. But I haven't logged back in to Stern through the game since.

Perfectly happy to just play my game like any pinball machine. I recognize the advantages to building up my experience and allowing the game to save it, but until I get bored that's not going to happen.

So I'm asking (not in a snarky way), why is the new ic stuff a bother?

I can see what you mean. Pic after installing metal bushings and new flippers. The QR light hasn't drawn my attention while playing though. Pic from a pitch black room with just Pinstadium GI lighting on white with a hint of blue.

Quoted from frankmac:

I would love to see white trim on the LE.

Stern spared no expense. The LE gets a new Illusion Turquoise Saphire finish with polished crystal cut armor and a delicate tourmaline laden trim.

And all the drop targets are shark teeth carved out of ivory.

While this may not be completely accurate the pricing seems like it should be close.

Quoted from pinmister:

Me after seeing JAWS gameplay video(I am a picky bastard)... [quoted image]

Agreed.

Also, Pacific Rim could be a franchise rife with toys and theme opportunity for a pin.

It's full of Robots and Kaiju Monsters, there's the Breach, and the mental Drift bonding process.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

Quoted from GCS2000:Yes but if the breach doesn't eat the ball everyone will be out and skip the game.

For Pacific Rim you'd shoot balls into the breach during multi ball to seal it. LOL

I wonder if it's possible with the Stern IC Platform to allow two players to connect with each other and play in the mental Drift mode and accomplish things by hitting the same shots together in a certain time period or order to reach special achievements or unlock wizard modes?

Or if you can access the statistics of someone's saved game and if you can match their shots for achievements?

That might be interesting and unique to the game.

Quoted from Grantman:

I don't know why you say GZ anniversary is "scrapped." This is from George Gomez: "We may celebrate anniversaries with Premium level art packages or create other Premium level editions like Vaults, or remasters."

I really do think with the success of Godzilla and being a beloved pin by so many a run of 70th Anniversary Editions will get offered next year. Sort of in the vein of what they did for Elvira with the Blood Kiss Edition.

What would really sell it would be a matching topper in a unigue Anniversary color to sit on top. Or just include it.

Quoted from Roostking:

Is the black and white Godzilla rumor true?

The expected Anniversary Edition?

It's got to have a little color.
This is the photo shop job that's been speculated for the Anniversary Edition. Matching Anniversary Topper is all speculation too but would be cool.
I wonder if all the video would be black and white or filtered through a blue tint?

On a side note it looks like they're re-running the Godzilla Minus One movie for a short run in black and white.

If Stern wanted to revisit a theme, doing it in legos style would provide an endless field of choices, with humor and freshness. Interesting.
