Is it just me or do others find extremely concerning that Homepin are putting up posts weekly on their FB page about all the work they are only now doing for Thunderbirds? I laugh everytime a new post comes up with a couple of pics of a machine or 2 and all the electronic parts, boards etc that they are only making or getting now?
As I recall the game was to be released in 2015. I know there have been a few excuses and reasons why there is a delay but what has been happening over all these years? Please don't mention the hankin uprights etc as we all know they were a failure and money grab.
I just laugh everytime a new post comes up  $$(





Thanks for reminding me. Out of the 16 sold, only ONE has been suitable for sale. Every machine has had to be unboxed, and issues rectified before passing on to the buyer. I have no horse in this race, but APR was, for a very short time, the so called "Victorian Distributor", and thus invested in the arcade machines. By a long way, the worst decision in my professional career. THANKFULLY, I could see through the fog and deception and cut ties immediately.

I can appreciate the MASSIVE amount of dedication and hard work to build a factory from scratch. Then building not one pinball, but a number of games. But I think building the arcade games while waiting for License approvals was a huge mistake. That time should have been spent building mechanisms, assemblies, winding coils etc etc..
To answer the OP's question - Facebook business accounts are self moderated. Business can control content.
I hope that everyone who has ordered their game, receives their game and that Hompin is successful in their endeavours.
