Looks packed and sadly much better than I expected. Not sure how to justify the purchase price though of a LE $15,490 or CE $20,490 AUD which is what I would want - well ideally CE. The CE has 600 RGB LED’s - whoah!

Watching the SDTM vid about it they talk of Slash’s detailed involvement in its creation plus unprecedented amount of IP assets given to them to use by the band plus even Gibson and Fender etc.

Nah - Don't like G'n'R music or JJP machines (prices are absurd). Admittedly it looks great, but.. Love my KISS LE.

now that's a good looking pinball! do they have an australian distributor??

[punkin]

Pinball sales are taking deposits. Don't ask me how i know.

Distributors overseas are having their pre ordered machines cancelled as JJP are keen to sell direct. Nice.

That's a simplistic way to read the incomplete information. My take away from following the threads is that the distributors applied for an allocation and started taking deposits for machines on their application. When JJP came back with the actual allocations, there were less than the distributors had expected. May or may not be that people could order direct from JJP it affected the numbers, i suspect not.


More strange to me is that i have my name on the CE eoi list in Australia, and although i have heard someone say England is getting 9 machines, the aussie agent is not saying they have any at all, let alone publishing a list of who was in first.


JJP has gone so far as to vet all orders now to make sure that people are not ordering extra's by ordering from more than one source in order to sell their allocation(s) at a profit (and good on them).

Looks pretty awesome to me. I wouldn’t be to concerned about missing out on a CE though. JJP generally release more versions of their games as sales slow. I’m sure there will be plenty of options out there by the time this game’s had its run.

From what i read that you could order direct from JJP and payment was required in full
so if this was the case in my understanding with a limit on number of games  Distributors then would get less

Then i would suppose that the Distributors based there model on previous allocations

That's another way of looking at what i said. Has to be remembered that them selling direct is not a new thing either.
It may be that they got less than previous allocations, does not mean that they should have assumed they would have got the same and taken deposits on that assumption.


In any case, there's more to the story than the average pinsider knows.




I suspect this is one title where if you'd got a CE you might be in POTCCE territory in a few years. That was my sole motivation for wanting one. I'll be very happy with an LE to keep and play.

I should of read your post more carefully 

sounds the same just worded different...

I would like a LE (premium if it was a stern lol )
atm i cannot justify to sell 2 or 3 pinballs just to get one ..

good times with the latest releases in pinball ...
Ummm maybe i should sell the torana as it just sits there doing nothing
