The Hobbit Pinball Reaches Manufacturing Milestone

Seen today on Twitter and Facebook, Jersey Jack Pinball has announced that the first complete playfield for their second title, The Hobbit, was installed into a cabinet. This means that the game should begin shipping very soon and early pre-orders will see their games. In the case of the Wizard of Oz pinball, it was a few months before enough stock was available to get games to those that didn’t pre-order so that might be what happens here although it has not been reported how many pre-orders need to be fulfilled. Regardless the game is finally here after a long, Hobbit style journey.

What are your thoughts on this new release? For those that have played the game, do you feel it was worth the wait?

    JJP have pulled off something that should be impossible in this day and age. Although this looks like a solid pin, I’m more interested in their next offering which is supposed to be the first original pin since the great fall of 1999.
