Kineticist’s take
Don reports from IAAPA Expo: JJP's Elton John impresses, Stern shows strength, CGC's Pulp Fiction quality noted, and Black Knight topper remake announced.
Synopsis
Don returns from attending IAAPA Expo 2024 in Orlando, a massive amusement industry convention where pinball occupied a small but significant corner. He provides detailed impressions of Jersey Jack Pinball booth (highlighting Elton John as a sleeper hit), Stern's presence (Venom, Deadpool, other recent releases), Chicago Gaming Company's Pulp Fiction machines (praised for quality control), and American Pinball minimal representation. He also discusses Stern's decision to remake the Black Knight: Sword of Rage topper, which had been commanding $2,500–$3,500 on the secondary market, at a new retail price of ~$1,500.
