With the quality coming out of Stern at the moment, its JJP who should be worried, not Stern which everyone has said was going to be left behind.
Since WOZ has dragged on for so very long, JJP will need to bring something else amazing to the table for number 2 machine, and convince people they can build and deliver it by mid 2013 so people put deposits down.
**Given Stern are about to release 2 more amazing machines over n above the X Men Title of the Pro and the X Men LE, JJP have even more catching up to do. By the time JJP number 2 gets here, Sterns X Men pins, Avengers Pro and LE and at least one more title from Stern would have hit the market. Its making WOZ release look old hat already. Stern is on fire and raging away with some great design and manufacturing. 2012 and 2013 will be Sterns best 2 years ever by the looks of it.
JJP should be emergency stations working frantically to just keep up with Gary Sterns pace. Lets see what happens.
