Jack has said they are going to aim to do 15 to 20 machines a day to start with, and then try to get up to 60 machines a day which is what his efficiency expert is telling him. ??

I doubt 60 a day will ever be achieved, not on their first pinball title, not even Stern does that amount and they have been building machines for 13 years in their current building, not to mention all the previous experience etc. (Stern say they now do up to 45 machines a day when they call in alot of extra casuals for a big run) so its doubful JJP will be hiitting 60 a day with a widebody. I mean its not impossible, its just how many people JJP are going to throw on the pinball production line. ??  !@#

So if JJP do say 15 machines day, its going to be 66 days to get things done for the 1,000 LE models.

If they run the line 5 days a week, its going to be just over 13 weeks, bar any major product or line hassles, to build the 1,000 LE models.

So if someone wants a maximum delivery date/time for their WOZ, call it a maximum of 3 and a half months from when they start the production line properly, plus say 8 or 10 weeks on the water. Maximum of say 22 weeks from production start if your order was done toward the end, versus the start. OR shave 8 or 9 weeks off that if u got your machine built at the startish period. Depends on when u ordered n payed for your machine.

if the next title, Hobbit is mid 2014, what is the JJP factory going to do for that very long vacant time once WOZ models are finished n all out the door. Its a long time empty after WOZ but before Hobbit. ?

Is anyone thinking of any cool mods to do to their WOZ machine ?
