Quoted from RobT:You keep saying this and as someone who has a GnR LE on order I want to believe it, but I see no evidence of it.
Can you elaborate?
My WW CE would also like to believe too.
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Just observations from here and the JJP Pinball Fans Facebook group, reports of playfield issues on recent builds have dropped heavily. However, there was just a report of pooling from a May build owner in the GNR owners thread...This is on a game with the longer posts, nylon nuts, and black washers on the problem posts. The owner reported that one post with a black washer still had some pooling and that he used an iron to get it back to normal. The owner also reported that the clear is very soft.
It's report like these that makes me want to cancel my order, even with being at the $9500 price point. Using washers and irons on a $10k+ game...ugh. It seems like JJP may know that the playfields have issues and are just doing whatever they can do prevent pooling / chipping. As a customer it would be nice to buy a game with the playfield issues resolved and no large washers installed all over the place.
My WW CE definitely has soft clear coat. I'm not having the chipping or art problems folks are having here but the clear, like I said, is just dried pancake syrup. It's my first and last JJP. I know we like our stuff new, but I would pay extra to have a machine that had 250 plays from JJP's factory itself. Burn-in tests don't reveal this stuff.
