Quoted from TheLaw:

Theme whores, FOMO, rich people, flippers, the bullshit legend of "JJP quality," not really caring that much as it doesn't affect resale that much etc etc

Loved: the bullshit legend of "JJP quality,"

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

Thanks. So far so good. The packaging of the game, overall build quality, and playability of the game have been excellent. Opening the game and setting it up felt like I was unboxing a premium product. I've had to make a couple tweaks to mechs but very minor. Now of course the big question is how the playfield will hold up. It's a July 2021 build with all of the latest tweaks / fixes. Reports of playfield issues have really dropped off, almost to 0 it seems, since late May and going forward.
I think it helps to have a great distributor that will back you up if issues arise. I ordered from Gary at Abel Electronics and would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a JJP pin.

Gary and his brother Mark are good people. I worked with Mark for a few years in another life....

Quoted from cooked71:

I got that in my CE also.

Just the letter or also the excess dust and dirt?

Unless Khabbi put the dust and dirt in himself after unboxing his machine...

Quoted from jfh:

Many of the toys, the movies (mostly 1&2) and Pixar/Disney in general have special meaning to my family, especially my (now adult) daughter (who was in the finals of a woman’s pinball tournament at one of Herb Silver’s pinball shows in Vegas long ago when she was only eight years old).
Personally, I think my only dream theme left would be a BTTF trilogy with full assets but TS would be close (though not strong enough to worry about a playfield whose art might disappear like shaking an Etch-A-Sketch).
I’ve had people ask me why the f* would I want pinball machines in my house, so bitchin about what themes I might like doesn’t even move the needle.

Upvote right there for attending Herb Silver's Fab-Fan show with your daughter. Well done....

Quoted from zr11990:

Its kind of funny how JJP was going to save and revolutionize pinball and now he is hated more than Gary ever was.

I remember all the fanboys in early 2011 parroting that these pinball machines will be "The Best-Built, Highest Quality pinball machines ever". Once WoZ was finally delivered, light boards started failing and as it turned out, Cliffy protectors were actually needed in spots on the playfield despite the "Cliffy, we luv you, but your protectors won't be needed on JJP machines" statements.

Many confuse Mirco with the former Table Soccer/Foosball manufacturer.
