Hey team!
After the joyful excesses of Chicago Pinball Expo two weeks ago, it's finally time to knuckle down and get back to stupid reality. So let's jump straight in!
PRODUCTION UPDATE
For those who have been patiently awaiting news of our Jaws "Buoy of Death" mod, I'm happy to say that it is finally about to hit the assembly line. In the time it's taken to bring this to market, we've upgraded it to use the brand spanking new Lolly V3 board, which means that all the text & animations will be fully customisable using our (also brand spanking new) bluetooth app - available on Android, Apple and the web. The new board is faster, has more storage, and is 100% guaranteed to make you more sexually attractive, which I hope isn't going to be too much of a burden for those who are already ridiculously hot. Stop pretending, you know damn well who you are.
Also in very important production news, our Godzilla Middle Building is due to be properly announced in 2 weeks time. There's been a few delays with this one, for which I sincerely apologise, and can confirm categorically that it has nothing to do with beer, expo, and distracting friends. I'm really excited about what we've been able to do with this building. It'll be sporting the "classic" neon style from Tokyo Neon #1 and will be animated - providing Pro owners something they've not had on their games up to this point!
Other things on the line at the moment are the Godzilla "Subway" mod, and The Big Lebowski "Hollywood Star Lanes" mods. We'll be finishing these very soon, so jump on the lists quick if you'd like to be part of the current builds runs.
DEADPOOL "CHIMI TRUCK" MOD, by MASTERS OF PINBALL
Not content with simply being an awesome dude, Bart from Masters of Pinball dropped the insanely cool and detailed "Chimi Truck" mod for Deadpool last week. The Chimi truck is running on of our ubiquitous LollyGI board system (the same one as Atomic Godzilla) which lights up the flames on top of the truck in a realistic way, responds to in-game triggers, and is of course 100% configurable over WiFi. If you have a Deadpool and take joy in kickass mods, make sure you hit Slomczas up in his thread. This one is a stone cold banger.
JAWS "CHUM CHUCKING BRODY" MOD by JAZZBOUCHE
The bouche is back, and he's brought with him a mod that encapsulates the most iconic Jaws scene of them all. The Jaws "Chum Chucking Brody" mod! No longer will the character of Brody be completely unrepresented on the Jaws playfield. This servo driven, animatronic Brody starts flingin' when the ball hits the chum bucket, and his exact movements can be minutely controlled using the new Lolly V3 app. Want him to fling only a small amount of chum? You can. Want him to fling like a chum flingin' Nordic bezerker? You can do that too. Head on over to Jazzbouche's Pinside thread and tell him that you too want to fling chum, like, yesterday already.
IN BEFORE THE LOCK
We're back on the case and ready to spout some inane pinball drivel for the masses! We'll be covering all the hot gossip from Expo. Who embarrassed themselves, who got fall over drunk, and who started a beef with who. We'll also be showing off all the latest pinball mods from around the globe, from all the hottest modders in the industry.
