I thought there was an interview with Jack and he said that Eric’s next game was one that had not been done before since POTC and GNR were? At least I thought that’s what I remember hearing a while ago but could be wrong of course. Anyone else remember that or am I making that up?

I heard that podcast interview. Jack was trying to be clear that Eric's next pin theme hasn't been done before. It's something new.

If the pin is based on the next Avatar movie, not the original, technically it would be something new.

So when Avatar 2 movie is coming out?
Quoted from colonel_caverne:So when Avatar 2 movie is coming out?
December 16th, 2022
Quoted from GravitaR:I'm believing next game announcement will be at/near Pinball Expo (Chicago) if happens at all in 2021.
I agree. Either Expo or Midwest Gaming Classic.
By then most of the GnR LE's will be made, and hoping (fingers crossed) they will have a second line ready for JJP#7.
Quoted from colonel_caverne:Any date for Pinball expo?
Obviously, next jjp wouldn’t be Avatar if the movie is only end of 2022
As of now...
Pinball Expo 21'
Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center in Schaumburg, Illinois on October 27-30, 2021
Quoted from Mrtattooz:Well it appears you were dead wrong on that one.
Yep, they got it right for once. And I'm happy for them that they did! Very good for JJP and for pinball.
I will say though that my advice about defective playfields still applied to the initial GNR release, unfortunately.
Quoted from dsmoke1986:It's going to be Toy Story, no doubt.
Yup...I think the general assumption that Toy Story is the next JJP table and is Pat Lawlor’s. I think the previous reply was specifically about Eric’s next game.

There has always been that rumor that Toy Story will be a re-theme of Dialed In. Anyone believe that?
I could totally see that sliding bob/lightning guy being Buzz Lightyear

No.

You're confusing "what if" and "I want" as a true rumor.

JJP doing an cheap stern re theme maybe not unless they do an very adult game like family guy or do an very USA like nascar or NFL.
That needs an re theme to sell in other markets.

Look these are the things... as I know some things haha
Small body pinball for the line as they also building the GNR as they have a 1 year backlog (100%)
It will be a licensed movie theme 100% (toy story, you all say well I’m not 100 % sure)
Designer is pat lawler ( 100%)
Game will not be build/announced before 2022
They are struggling to build games as it is. They have no rush to build another title they can’t produce in time
JJP is in no rush
Ehmmm and yes MIRCO is doing the playfields again

Then it really doesnt matter wich theme it is.
Easy pass.
Quoted from PinFever:Like Toy story. are you like 10 Yo ?
Wonka Was a kiddie pin Why have 2 ?
like Kiddies can foot the 7k-12k price of a JJP game .lol
I am in for Toy Story - great movie and designer. I own Wonka, GNR, Big Lebowski, etc. I am comfortable enough in my masculinity to make my selections based on the game and its designer.
Quoted from PinFever:Like Toy story. are you like 10 Yo ?
Anyone outside of the pinball hobby thinks the same of any of your games that you have.

Saying the Wonka is like Toy Story is pretty much the same as saying that Led Zeppelin is the same as AC/DC…. Both are old man rock bands.
In terms of the licensing world… Toy Story isn’t even on the same planet as Wonka.
Wonka was toy story. That was the layout but due to time and license issues at that time and money the re themed it to wonka. So now they have pat and Steve to do the new game
$11k now for Wonka LE, that probably means Toy Story LE will be $11k and the CE potentially at $14,500...
Quoted from unlockpinball:Is JJP also doing a run of Pirates or WOZ with Wonka?
Just a guess but im thinking like what they did with Hobbit they are just using up inventory and extra parts.I think pirates and woz would sell, but with three designers and people wanting new games, it's time to make toy story and other new titles and not look back.
i do not know. Do they.?
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Anyone outside of the pinball hobby thinks the same of any of your games that you have.
Closest one to a kiddie theme may be Spiderman ,but i am leaning on NO . No Kiddie games here Pinball Brother !

No chance. March at the ealiest,, but that's looking slim at this point.
Hope I'm wrong.
TOY STORY??? LOL... well at least I don't have to worry about forking out money for a game that's themed for eight-year-olds. I know we live in a world today where being a nerd is no longer taboo and being a grown man wearing pajamas in public is no longer taboo but that theme is a waste!!
Quoted from livetowin:Signed grown adult with wrestling avatar
It's still real to him damn it!!
When I was 12, wrestling was real. The Mighty Sheik, Haystacks Calhoun, Johnny Powers, Dominic Danucci, Pampero Phirpo.
Quoted from ThisNotes4U:What confidence anyone have in "The Godfather" guess?
0% chance, I think
Quoted from livetowin:Signed grown adult with wrestling avatar
Not just a wrestler but Ric Flair. Athletes, celebrities , and grown men think Ric Flair is cool. 8 yr Olds never thought Ric Flair was cool unlike Toy Story. Must be a lot of nerds and Men wearing pajamas out in public on this thread lol. Woooooooo!!! Rolex wearing, limo riding , jet flying nature boy!!!
Quoted from livetowin:Signed grown adult with wrestling avatar
Weird gate keeping? Wrestling is just for 8 year olds now?
Getting a whiff of "only real men" fallacy here.

If there's one thing about society that needs to die is this BS right here... I get to some acceptance and inclusion is "scary" or whatever but FFS people, you don't get to decide what someone else does with their life or how they perceive their existence. Oh and nothing says "manly" like a wrestling avatar...

Nah, it’s a great movie that is also for adults. I have all types of themes (Big Lebowski, Hobbit, etc.) but Toy Story bridges adult and kid for us. Especially if Lawlor.
