Had the chance to play IM at the Kalamazoo Pinball Expo. If you go by the lines at the two machines they had on site, I think the game is going to do quite well. I actually have one on order, and can't wait to get one home where I can crank it up and feel it. Great layout and challenging shots with 4 flippers. Not a huge Maiden fan, but the song list is good and the game is a blast.

Update 5/14/18. I have owned this game now for a few weeks and still love it. There are some shots that are easy and some that are quite challenging. That makes the game very difficult to master and fun to play IMO. I agree with others that "keeping the ball alive will get you a big score", but that is part of what makes it fun for me. I play with the intent of starting and finishing the modes, while my kids are just trying to keep the ball alive but are still able to get a decent score which makes them feel competitive. I still think this is a big win for Stern. I do wish it had more toys, but that leaves more room for the extras and add ons market to come in and make them awesome and more personalized. I like the video screens these new machines have. It keeps the others waiting to play more to watch rather than stand right over your shoulder.

I finally picked up one of these beauties!! For the year this game came out, it is pure genius. Rudy is a fun character to have on the playfield taunting you along the way. Some complain on the side of Rudy, but since the game is basically about him, I like it. The music is fun and the voices are also a nice touch. Some of the shots are very difficult and that keeps you coming back to try and figure them out. I really enjoy the game and plan on keeping it for a long time.

Played this at a pinball expo and really like it. I haven't seen the movie, but the pin is lots of fun. I would add it to my collection.

I played this machine at a recent pinball expo I was at and fell in love with it! This game is a blast to play and sucks you in to keep playing. Would love to add one to my collection some day.

I love this pin and play it whenever I get the chance. I remember playing this a lot in my younger days and would feed a lot of quarters in it. Gameplay is great. Artwork is great, Sound is great. One of the best things with this game is the start up to multi ball. When this game lights up and "SHOWTIME" is announced, your adrenaline is flowing and it makes the hairs on my neck stand up. LOVE IT!! I would love to add one of these to my collection, but they aren't easy to come by where I live and when you do find one, they are expensive.

Started out to be a fun game. Rules are challenging and fun. The sound is was ruined this game for me. The alien screeches drove me absolutely crazy after a short time, so I sold it. Theme is cool, and the artwork is decent. Fun game to play if you play with the volume off, but what fun is that.

I am a fan of the movie and that led me to add this game to my collection. Fairly easy game to play, but not a high scoring game. I love the build up to multi ball. Gets your adrenaline going and the blood pumping. Unfortunately the game bored me pretty quickly and I sold it. Easy game for beginners. Artwork and playfield are pretty cool and represent the movie well. Sound and music are decent as well.

I've had this game in my collection for awhile, and I still enjoy playing it. Multi ball is fairly easy to get and a lot of fun. I wish the build up before multi ball start was better. Doesn't get you excited about the multi ball, but it is still fun once you get it. Game plays fast and fun. I wish there was more to do in the middle of the playfield. Artwork and voices are kinda quirky, but the show was always funny and quirky also. Still a fun game overall and I will keep it in my collection for awhile.

I've only had this game for a couple days, but I couldn't be more happy with the purchase of this pinball. Game play is fast and a blast. It is a very difficult game but it continues to suck me in to get a better score. I've only got multi ball a few times so far, and it is insane!! I love machines that get your blood pumping just before multi ball start and this machine does not disappoint. I'm a big fan of the movie and so far even a bigger fan of the pinball. Great artwork, great lighting, and awesome sound.
Update: I bought this game right after it's release. It was a fun game and remained in my collection in hopes a code update would make it better. So glad I waited. The new code that just came out turned this into a brand new machine again and I can't stop playing it.
