The Stern Star Wars hype thread. THAT'S NO MOON!

My dealer told today me they will have their LE's in 2 weeks... I just changed up to an LE from a Premium because someone else backed out if theirs.

I also have a Premium/LE play-field protector on order from https://www.playfield-protectors.com/ which they say will ship next Monday so if all goes as planned I will install that before another ball even touches the play-field.

Super excited for this pin although I will now be selling my HUO Tron (pin) to help offset the cash outlay.
 
Did anybody else catch the Dead_Flip stream of the LE (could have been a Prem - never saw the cab/translite art) model yesterday? A lot of the Pinside guys seem to be down on it (either that, or the majority of the folks who liked it kept their mouths shut), but I thought it looked badass. That hyperspace loop is all sorts of cool, and looks like it's a rush once you start getting multiple balls loaded into it.



I will admit that I found the Death Star "explosion" to be underwhelming - though apparently, it wasn't operating properly.



Nonetheless, I'm sticking with my Premium order.



Here's a link to the stream, for anyone who missed it but wants to see the game in action:

Thanks for sharing!

I checked out bits and pieces of it. I'm holding off judgement until I actually get to play one. I'm thinking I may try and get one in the next couple of years. Hopefully the code gets completed and not left in limbo.
 
I forgot to mention that I played the Pro version pretty much all weekend at CAX. It's insanely fast, and a lot of fun.

I met Steve Ritchie, and he signed a Star Wars translite and flyer for me:

Here they are, hanging up in my upstairs game room... waiting for the Premium version to arrive (hopefully in the next 4-6 weeks):

Thats awesome. And the paint job in the gameroom is so fricking awesome dude. I love the brown. They must call it 'exactly 80's brown'.
 
Yay! Knock Off IV should be planned around its arrival!!

Just saw this. I'd better plan fast then, because it arrived in Phoenix last night. :)

Hopefully I'll get a phone call this morning for an afternoon delivery. If not, I would imagine it'll be in the house tomorrow. Can't wait! Today's going to draaaaaaag at work.
