Would really like to see this get done but we need a commitment from 25 people and many on the original list were from 2 years ago.
Let's see if we can get a current list going
In the last month we have 3. If your on the original list and are still interested please chime in.

Quoted from Topcard:I thought 20 was the magic number. That's what it was for SkyJump. You might want to PM the original interested people in case they miss your post. I would take two if needed to get it done.
I will start sending pms out. Wade said in a recent email to him that he needs 25 firm commitments.
1) Mitch (I'll buy 2 if needed)
2) Grizlyrig
3) Tyamry
4) topcard ( 2 if needed)
So we are at 6.
That makes 10 total.
I've sent a pm to everyone on the original list. A few have sold there games already including the OP boilerman.
Still hoping we can make this happen. Anyone else out want one? Will be a year or 2 to make from wade once we get enough people.

Ok I messaged wade today. Hes doing 2 others first then if we have a firm 20 here he will do this one next.
He needs a used playfeild to so the CNC work and it might get destroyed. Does anyone have a extra used one? If not I'll strip mine and send it to him.
Please send me a pm to confirm your still in if your on the list.

If I cant find a spare used playfeild to send to wade I will be stripping mine down to send to him.
14 people confirmed ( 17 playfeilds) wiating on the last 3 people.
Quoted from vonclod:I think Mirco only requires 15 to commit???
Wade is the only way to go for true em reproductions.

15 people confirmed ( 18 playfeilds) waiting on the last 2 people.
Playfeild is now in cue on Wade's website.
Still waiting on confirmation from the last 2 people.
Have been told by wade it will be atleast 6 months.
Still looking for a playfeild any condition to send to wade rather then stripping mine down to send in.... but if I have to do that I will.
Bumping this up.
GOOD NEWS!!!
talked to wade today, looks like this will be getting made!!!!!!
pm's have gone out to all those who have confirmed, I'm making a list of names and email addresses to go out to wade.
for anyone on the fence now is the time to get in on one of these, with the rarity of this game i really doubt another run will ever happen.
Quoted from AvidListener:You are correct, Ken!
I am absolutely in for a Strange World playfield.
And not just because of the peer pressure

Quoted from AvidListener:Hello. Since there are many Strange World owners in this thread, I thought I would ask:
I am looking for a NOS or very nice condition original (not a repro/BG Resto) Strange World backglass.
If anyone happens to have one they would like to sell, please PM me.
Thank you!
I was looking forever and ended up having to get a bgresto.

Quoted from JAG94:I know this is a thread of owners, but I would love to buy a Strange World if anyone has a lead for one.
Post a wanted ad and hope for the best.

Quoted from JAG94:I messaged Boilerman. I would like to add myself to the list for a playfield.
I took over the list awhile ago then forwarded it to wade once we had enough people.
You should email wade directly if you want to be added to the list.

Received this email today!!
Hello everyone, it's Wade and I'm writing because in the past you have expressed interest in a Strange World playfield. I'm in the process of making the blanks now and I need to know if you are still committed to the project. I am still working
on the art which is very complicated.
This is not an official announcement, because of the art, I plan to run El Dorado first. El Dorado has been made before and I expect it to run smooth. There is another project in the works as well but Strange World should be done before the end of the year.
Important, because of the rather large number of people on the list who never followed through on the last playfield, and because of my
increased costs in materials, I will only make a batch based on the number of people who pay deposits. I completely understand if this is a deal
breaker for you. I am not asking for a deposit until I make the official announcement.
Strange World will be 700 plus 60 to ship. As for a deposit, I leave the amount up to you. Some people pay in full to get the best of the batch, some pay as little as 100. Most pay around half the total.
Other upcoming titles are El Dorado, Surf Champ, Sing Along, Cross Town. If you have any interest in those, please let me know.
Thank you,
Wade
