Happy Day of the Dude! What better day than today to finally answer one of the most frequently asked questions: How many The Big Lebowski pinball machines have we built?
Most companies keep these numbers secret, but we’re happy to share the full breakdown:
• 5 original prototypes built at ARA
• 5 engineering samples at ARA
• 55 Early Achiever editions made by ARA
• 40 standard editions from ARA’s stock when we took over production
• 1,267 standard editions built by us (starting from machine #314 up to #1580)
• 130 additional Early Achiever editions built in-house
• 15 machines built for testing and internal use
That brings the total to 1,517 TBL machines!It’s been quite a journey, and we’re proud to have built every single one of them. A huge thanks to everyone who supported us along the way. Now, let’s raise a White Russian and celebrate The Day of the Dude!
