Here is a crop of the pic's original size. Here are some things we now know definitely or at least pretty surely...  - The yellow $500 is indeed now $900 - The podiums are still 3 angled monitors, not one long curved one. - The pink $900 is NOT $700. - The blue $500 next to Jackpot is now $300! Presumably, the Jackpot's replacement is now a red $500, resolving the "triple $500" in R1. |

And I'm taking a close look at the purple wedge next to the Bankrupt (after stretching the photo on Powerpoint), and that blue $300 next to the Half Car tag looks more like $350. Additionally that second digit looks more like a five than a zero. So I've got a good feeling that an old 70s friend is coming back and making it's first nighttime appearance.  |

If that is in fact $650 then that would mean no more $600, though it would close up the large gap in values from 600-800... Also, carrying on to what Guint noted about the 3 green $500s, it looks like we now went from two blue $500s to none.  |

So based on this new wheel, will it be easier to hit bankrupt/lose a turn?

Never mind I realized the second wheel is with everything at once. Sorry.

Nothing's changed with the Bankrupt/LAT structure, THAT we do know.

So, there are the potential configurations...that blue wedge next to 1/2 Car looks a bit more like $350 than $300 to me...and I don't really like WC next to top dollar... Round 1:  Round 2:  Round 3:  Round 4:  Total bare Wheel layout comparison (not counting top dollar, Free Play, or any other extras)... Season 29: $9,850 Season 30 (potential): $10,400 I just realized something else...Pat hit the yellow $500 a lot on Final Spins. Looks like we'll be getting a lot more $1,900 Final Spins...and I bet the show will probably feel that will justify their refusal to add a regular $1,000 or $1,500 wedge...  |

A leftovers week has just been confirmed via Twitter from an audience member for today's tapings. January 7-11. Probably "America's Game II".

A Mini Cooper? My brother loves that car! By the way, MarioGS, good impressions of what the Wheel has to offer so far, but I can't stop thinking that purple wedge is worth $650. I keep seeing a straight edge on the left side that second digit instead of a rounded edge.
Furthermore, if that blue space two spaces to the right was worth $300, I would have seen the lower-left part of 3. Instead, all I see is blue. Something tells me that $700 could be making a return after all.
I don't know if showing a stretched version of the photo would help, but if anyone can find photos of the area from Bankrupt to Bankrupt that show the values we've yet to see, that would be helpful. I'll keep looking myself.

The wild card being beside the top dollar could be deliberate. They might have wanted to see more use of it.
Nice to see some new values and other stuff.
PS. I'm back after an extremely long disappearance thanks to school and other stuff. Have actually been searching through these threads for quite a while already (sometimes as a guest).

Does it actually say "America's Game" to describe the sixth episode? And do they give the production numbers for the episodes as well? They should be S-5661 though S-5665 and S-5693.

Yes, it says America's Game. No, it does not have production numbers. I'll keep an eye out for those when I'm there.
