Stern Pinball put up this teaser like 2 weeks ago now, I didn't actually see it until like 1 week ago, and wow they are really dragging their feet on actually announcing this! I see leaked photos have been up for a while on the pinside forum, what's Stern's deal, they usually actually announce the pinballs just a couple of days after posting the little teaser. And this is pretty much the only pinball they are probably announcing this year! (RUSH was early January, but I count it as end of last year).
JAMES BOND 007 pinball. I just want an official Stern video of this pinball in action so we can talk about it on the forum!!! Frick! But I am watching one of those James Bond VHS tapes from the Dumb Records basement tonight!!

I read they had to postpone the release due to the queen's whole deal. It will be released on Thursday

release videos are out today. I'm still not really a fan of this theme and I'm pretty appalled that they put a big wobbly soviet themed sex toy right on the playfield.

If only there were more indie game devs involved with pinball, this release is so much more exciting

I agree, I think everything shown here in this video is pretty underwhelming, including the back glass artwork and the toys shown. I get a kick out of little james bond jetpack man carrying the ball around, but I'm sorry, that looks like it could be a cereal box toy. looks like a sad game in comparison to Godzilla premium so far, but I'm still excited to play it whenever it comes to CP pinball or wherever, and it also looks like there is a lot going on on the playfield that we are not seeing videos of yet.

So this James Bond release is really getting out of hand. Not only are there the usual 3 models (pro, premium, LE) but there is also another "Super Limited" version that is a completely different game designed by Keith Elwin (George Gomez designed the regular James Bond game for plebs like us). On top of all of that James Bond was supposed to be a Steve Ritchie design but they completely scrapped his design and started over. I wonder if that was part of the reason Steve switched companies, maybe his design was that bad.
