Greetings Pinball Fans, 
 
With the fast approaching Holidays we are working extra hard to get every game out the door we can. So far we have built over 500 LE's, and the factory continues to increase speed as the months roll by. We continue to receive extremely positive feedback from customers who have received their games.
 
In response to the showing of the two prototype 75th Anniversary Games in California this September, the interest at the JJP Fireside Chat at Expo and since then, we have decided to build 1,500 of them for production beginning in early Summer 2014. This is AFTER all the remaining LE's and Standards previously ordered have been shipped. This game comes with 4 custom toys/playfield additions, beautiful red treatments, a shaker motor, a new topper, and will be numbered.
 
Please click here to view the official
75th Anniversary WOZ Pinball Flyer! 
 
The price of the game is $9000 and there is an option to add Invisiglass for an extra $250.
 
To place an order for a game, a $2500 deposit is required. After the $2500 deposit is received, the balance is not due until 30 days prior to shipment of your specific game.   
 
To place a new order for the
75th Anniversary WOZ - click here
 
 
We doubt there will be many as who want to wait longer but we are allowing those people who have not yet received their LE or Standard yet to switch their game to a 75th game if they want to at an additional cost. These people who choose to switch will be the very first people to receive the 75th Anniversary game once shipping begins. This is only fair as they have already been waiting for their LE/Standard to be shipped.
 
If you would like information on switching to a 75th Edition, please contact your distributor.
 
If you choose not to switch, then nothing at all will change. You will remain in the queue at your current price with your current game. All game rules and play features are exactly the same between game versions. Nothing changes there.
 
Aside from those who choose to switch to a 75th as they will receive their game first, games will be shipped in the order in which deposits are received. First to pay = first to play.
 
We will make the extra toys and topper on the 75th Anniversary game available for purchase by anyone in 2014 as we start to run the game. This way the people who have purchased their games have an opportunity to buy those items for their games if they want them.
 
There was no plan to make this game until a couple of weeks ago. The timing of this announcement is important as we were required to reveal any 75th Anniversary Product by a deadline for marketing purposes.
 
As always, Thank you all for your continued support in JJP!

Gee another 1500 hundred machine for the market.I feel if there all keep going at this pace someone/something going to have to give in the end as you can only buy so many new machines per year.

Forget waiting for the hobbit,been waiting to long for my woz and now i can give some more money and wait a bit longer.First ordered  on 1.5.2011 and paid for two machines and now i can wait till the middle of 2014 if i choose ^&^.One day this will all end.

So I wonder how the WOZLE customers that have waited years feel about ANOTHER LE model ? Are there more LE's than standards ?

That is the ugliest pinball machine I have ever laid eyes on.  !*!

It pretty bad when i still haven't received my limited edition pinball after two years and you bring out another 250 limited edition and then you release another 1500 limited editions.

Not sure what limited edition means anymore.

Jumpin Jack Cash, it's a gas, gas, gas.
Sounds like a pyramid scheme, someone will get burnt.

I have to laugh at the whole LE thing. I mean surely JJP is just taking the piss now. A cynic would say it's just a quick grab for some more cash flow from a start up business.

The standard model would now have to be the rarest and most collectible. This whole LE concept has surely jumped the shark now. Put a shaker and a different powder coat and a plaque number and call it a LE, then wait for people to throw money at you. The MMR thing they tried was just as bad.

F@$k me just make a pin at one cost and be done with it. If people want to add stuff to the base model then do it at a fixed cost to add each item. These tossers will kill the golden goose with this garbage.

Something is wrong when the standard model has the lowest production numbers.  !@#

"The price of the game is $9000"

Yikes!


LE ??

LE = Lots of Equity provided by the buyers so I did not need to put up capital of my own.

Things are getting rather stupid I think, between this and the people taking pre-orders for machines we haven't even seen the layout for the whole thing is crazy.. Some people obviously have a lot of money to throw away.. I also don't like stern's three levels of machines topping out at small/cheap car price level (new mirage drive away are $11k), but I suppose you can't blame stern, jjp etc they wouldn't do it if people didn't pay them for it..

I think it is good that Jack has come up with this new Limited Edition

I think it shows that you do not have to pay up front for a machine, sight unseen
You can wait until the game is released and reviewed.
Then you can wait for Jack to come up with another incentive (Limited Edition) to tempt those who did not buy the first time around

I suppose once people realise that is his plan they won't need to bother pre-ordering LE models.. Seems counter-intuitive from his point of view, if pre-orders are important to him..

I reckon the 75th Version is the pick of all the models JJP has come up with so far. Looks much better than the others. The ruby red colours n the topper is sooo much better.

I would buy the 75th model over the others n it means people who missed out on the original LE can get a LE now which is good.

It also gives people lots of time to save up n only a small deposit.  Better than having to pay the lot like others have.

and yes, order directly thru JJP ofcourse, n not thru melb for obvious reasons.

Anyone else changed their order to a 75th model ??  !@# !@#

JJP may end up having Emerald LE's n Standards n 75ths all on the assembly line at the same time with the Hobbitt.

That will be fun for them (Not).

Maybe Jack shld just bite the bullet, ring Gary Stern and ask to borrow his workforce just for 3 or 4 days and get the entire orders finished n shipped, then he can have no outstanding orders n everyone is happy.  @.@

I am sure Gary would just love to help out Jack for a few days..... *.*
