Willy Wonk LEs being re-run by JJP and on the line now - small run - they won't last long.

$ 11,000 - Email Joe at [email protected]

#2 2 years ago

Just heard this. Curious as to why not POTC or WOZYBR but apparently Wonka's were needed so cool! Not sure what this does to the current GnR's and Toy Story release with line capacity but we will see

Awesome!

Might be because their line isn’t set up to run wide bodies yet.

New 2nd line running - doesn't affect GNR.

#5 2 years ago

Because Wonka is kickass. I’ve played GNR, great game, but Wonka is the best JJP, in terms of layout and flow.
Glad they’re making a few more!

Do they still have the license to POTC? I had also heard it was expensive to make, but obviously that's just peoples opinions.

Today I bought a half dozen eggs.

Nice money grab upstate organic farmers!!!!

#9 2 years ago

Never hesitate to buy from Joe - wonderful seller!

#10 2 years ago

A re-run 'Limited Edition'? As the joke goes, limited only to how many they can sell!

#11 2 years ago

How many LE models have been made so far? I'm sure they have a ways to go to get to the total unit LE allocation of 5,000.

#12 2 years ago

Yea re-run potc would be great! Still regret selling my ce

How is making the product their business produces a “money grab”?

Everything this company does is a money grab. They knowingly sell defective products and don’t stand behind their customer. Just awful.

Well, that’s another topic. What are they supposed to do, though? Close forever?

Respond to their customer complaints and make paying customers with disintegrating playfields whole.

It’s a crazy market. People like to pay a lot for playfields made of wrapping paper. If they’re selling, they’re selling. I’m not buying them. You don’t have to either.

Dude. Not the thread for this. Plenty of other threads to go piss and moan about JJP in.

Moving right along…

Pinballstar is awesome. Super good dude to deal with!

I would put money on JJP running POTC again. I heard they already had plans to do so, but Covid sidelined it. Fingers crossed it happens.

#20 2 years ago

A great pin…Glad to see that others will get to own one

Great question, who knows. Wishful thinking on my part I guess. Imagine if they did though? Someone who paid $20k or more and then they rerun them? Ouch!! LOL I don't wish that on anyone but just saying, that would suck

Nice! I just paid for a NIB GnR LE today in fact as some distros got them in stock! Good luck to them, more the better!

Probably, but we can wish for it someday!

They haven’t sold 5k of them yet. That’s the amount of limited editions there could be.

This bodes well for Toy Story coming sooner rather than later

Oh no... some company trying to make money? what a shame.

Good for them, this is their best playing game IMO so the more out there the better.

#28 2 years ago

Glad to see a second line producing more Wonka’s, great layout and fun pin. It is absurd JJP calls a pin an LE with a qty of 5,000 but they seem insistent upon it. Wish they would call it a premium, oh well.

#29 2 years ago

Someone should tell JJP if they make a rerun of a game how about some new code or polish to go with it. Especially when it comes with a big price increase.
Just an idea.

They literally just dropped a new code update for Wonka lol

So these are on the line now? Any word for a more accurate estimation on when we will get these?

I ordered one from Nitro (the Canadian store).

#32 2 years ago

I thought that code update just enabled scorebit features. Was there any other polish given to the game itself?

They just had a major code update in August.
