Nipped along to Tilt today to put in some games on Jaws Pro. I'd already played the Premium at Funland, but if I'm honest I think I prefer the speed of the Pro. Pretty hectic game. Managed about 430m, scraped high score 4. Won't last long

Jaws! By Stern… We’re going to need a bigger games room !
- Thread starter Silverpaolo
- Start date
Awesome.., a nice new toy
After playing both back to back at EAG I came away feeling the same, and I generally prefer the Premium. Really wasn’t a fan of the upper playfield, only thing I’d miss on the Pro is the drop targets and I think @myPinballs said he was looking into a mod for that.
Big thanks to @philpalmer as always great service...
Really enjoying my pro... Even more than at the EAG!
The artwork is spot on
The visuals and sounds are great, loving the cut-scene videos
Cabinet artwork is just what I want... I also have the premium backglass so will swap them over every couple of months, also plan on powder coating everything white and buying some side armor to make it fit in with my LE's
Typical Elwin greatest on shot layout, i love the shots from the mini flipper...
Don't miss the pop up shark and i really enjoy the roaming fin shot!
Code is great considering its only been out in the wild a month or so... And there is plenty of scoop going forward....
I think its his most linear ruleset which is good, easy for people to learn!

Yup think he prompted them to bring out earlier than expected?

Hilarious the noises he was making every time he ripped that reel
I would love to watch a tournament stream that just follows every Eric Stone game (providing he's mic'd up)
This lot arrived today courtesy of @malcolmplaster. 
I’m not sure if I can get done with them before TPF but maybe I’ll get a start on them.
Some big mofos on this set so it’s gonna take a while.

Played this at Tilt on Tuesday. Was nowhere near as bad as the doomsayers had been whining about the Pro being stripped down and big open spaces.
It's clearly on early code - as always - and shots aren't signposted as well as they could be meaning often you don't know what to shoot for. That could be an issue of playing it on sight with the sound down low.
The shots are all good and most give a return to a flipper to make another shot. The right orbit/ramp had a lot of rejects, similar to Black Panther on AIQ - maybe a case for flipper cooling units?
I'm off next week so hope to get over to Tilt again for a deeper investigation.

It's the pro set.
I helped remove them all.
After making protectors a few years now I thought I’d share the reason I think they a must even in there purest form.
So these plastics from JAWS were removed the moment it was unboxed so take note of the damage albeit slight to the art on them being factory fitted.
This is down to not only that horrendous metal washer but also other metal contact points around the pin.
So do yourself and your cherished pin a favour and if nothing else remove the ugly washer and replace the slings and guides with some simple clear protectors like the ones below.
I will be offering a 4 set of clear protectors as pictured above (slings and guides) not only for JAWS but any of the 100+ pins I now cover for £15:00 inc the postage.
How bad can they get if left alone? For more info check my thread below

Nice one,
i had to delay my jaws pro delivery for 2 weeks because of repair jobs here and no space. Work comes first ha. Now cleared and ready for my tuesday 19th delivery. Pretty hyped for this one! Jaws is a theme i've loved for along time
Guess only premiums get matching legs now , lol, cheers Stern 
It’s easy sorted, Phil’s on the case. Kind of amusing really
Just like this.. no America we aren’t all on the same line plug
This is pretty cool
Played 1 game so far (which was awesome) as time ran out and had to make dinner for everyone, but tomorrow it’s getting hammered

I see they accidentally sent you some premium glasses, the pro is supposed to come with a few quality street wrappers.
