I was testing new pins at my dealer’s warehouse, and I went in knowing I was leaving w a Foo Premium or DP Premium (theme plays no part). I flipped ALL the newer Sterns & a couple JJP’s. Then I played a *JP Premium* w shaker installed … 👀 🤷♂️ So I’ve had my new JP Premium for not even a full week (😅) & lemme tell ya: if there’s a better-shooting/-flowing, more outrageously re-playable pin, I ain’t seen nor heard of it. I canceled a long-scheduled doc appointment just to KEEP PLAYIN day 2! 🥳🤩 🤘🤘 My #1 pin of ALL - TIME! Straight up (& down the middle 🥸)!

I was playing tonight and did something that reminded me of this review and Ryan C haha. I put a physical knocker on my game and did the spinner, upper loop, upper left ramp combo that put me over the replay score on the ramp so you can only imagine the satisfaction of those noises and hitting that shot. I didn't drain like Ryan but I had to trap up and kind of regroup it was the most satisfying thing I've ever done in pinball.

I think there's an invisible toy on this game. The toys on a table are the primary way these designers spark your imagination and pull you into that whole "world under glass." Well, how many pinball tables have an AI element? JP pulls me onto the playfield and asks me to imagine the dinosaur I'm trying to capture. What is its behavior? Where is it going next? When I start a new paddock, I have to look where each staff member is randomly placed, where the dinosaur is located, and who is going to get hit first. That dinosaur and those staff members suddenly exist on the playfield without being physically present, and add so much more than just "shoot the flashing lights" just because. That, plus the truck and map, really pull you mentally onto the playfield to experience a story.

“Give me 5 min”🤣🤣🤣 Great review. I loved this game when we played it at Pinburgh. We went back to it over and over. I wish the game told you to shoot those set trap targets in a better way. It wasn’t till my 15th game at the show that I finally learned to shoot them. I LOVE the shots and combos. Hitting that 4 way is so satisfying and it sets you up to repeat it! Time will tell of it hold its place for me but right now I have it just behind Maiden which is my current favorite game I still can’t get enough of.

I've been so looking forward to this one. Loved the review guys...though I still wish Zach could give his two cents. I agree with you on the shots and layout. Take everything else away and you'd still have an amazing pin. It's so fun to shoot that it makes up for all the shortcomings. I'd love for this to be my first NIB which is huge. It's that good.

I might have a bought a faulty machine (new JP premium). Sometimes someone just gets a shitload of point for no apparent reason. A friend of mine managed to get 1 Billion points within like a minute. My highscore stands at over 3 Billion without having any substantial progress in the story line. Yesterday someone created a new account on stern IC and they got the gold tower award (50 tower shots lifetime) within the first game. And I also notice that red skill shots sometimes unlit for no reason at all. I suspect that a loose contact is triggering the machine to think the raptor tower is hit. Any other ideas? Edit: Now I know for sure. The optical sensor wasn't installed straight. However, when I reinstalled it, it seemed to work okay from the diagnostic menu. But sadly the game still registers tower shots when none are made.

Do you think the Jurassic LED interaction and story kept up with the Hobbit? Jurassic just looks like a faster more fun shooter (and world under glass). The Hobbit looks...Epic. Whatever I get, it will be paired with a used Iron Man or Lord of the Rings.

Well done Zach, keeping it neutral👍🏻 Greg being cost/pro/premium/money thoughtful, saying the swinging dinohead is a game changer, feels like he feels like that because of the theme. If this pin wasn’t his dream theme, he would probably say, a swinging head and extra standup target at raptor is not worth the money. Pro is pretty packed. BUT still great review guys, love your show

I owned JP LE for a while. Loved it. But when its used prices shot thru the roof in late 2021, I traded it for mando LE and JP pro (plus a little cash from my side). The JP pro plays better than the LE. Why? T-rex grabbing the ball worked maybe 40% of the time on my LE and when it did actually grab the ball, the game basically stops until t-rex flails around and finally throws the ball onto the PF creating yet another permanent dimple in the soft stern playfield. With the pro version, trex doesn't stop or slow down the game ever. It doesn't create new playfield dimples either. The raptor pen gate goes up and down on the LE but not on the pro. Is that a plus or minus? Play the game and tell me. Pro vs LE... Same, lighting, callous... everything... different art... yes, but the pro costs $6-$7k less?! Sign me up. Escape from nublar is maddening! I've completed it one time... which makes me keep coming back to try doing it again. Probably 200 games since completing it and I still haven't been able to do it a 2nd time.

I love the game, art work and everything aside.. I cannot hit either of those 180 ramps for the fucking life of me. But, the soft plunge secret skill shot to the Amber is a ton of fun. It'll feed directly to the left flipper, trap it and hit that shot. I've hit the other two ramps back to back for the super skill short, but again.. that fucking left 180 is shit for me.
