AC/DC is next and confirmed. Pro ships in Jan the LE shortly after a month + or so.
Lots of drop targets on this one 
The LE will have a lower playfield beneath the main. This will be a first on a Stern.

Quoted from kiter67:AC/DC is an awful idea. might as well give poison their own. they were always 2nd fiddle to van halen with roth. they just weren't innovative enough. and now the 80's bands including VH, my fav, are just nostalgia acts. metallica or u2 would be the only choices for music because they remain relevant to the contemporary music scene. they probably tried to get led zep or the beatles but they wouldn't sellout. Rock themes are bad. rock is not even the dominant music genre out there.
Zep will be next in the near future from Stern. Kiss from JJP.
Quoted from pinball_keefer:mnpinball said:Kiss from JJP.
Approaching troll status.
Maybe things changed since I talked to the "man" at expo, but that was the word 2 months ago.
Maybe I should have put in a disclaimer:no eta of game in que and info current 2 months ago but subject to change.
Quoted from vid1900:Kiss has a instantly recognized branding that lends itself to pinball. They are a living comic book. They merchandise themselves on everything from Lava Lamps to Coffins.
What would a Bad Company, Foghat, Oasis, Foreigner or Coldplay, pinball machine look like? Great bands, but what do the members look like? What are their names? You would probably have to look it up.
Kiss, Alice Cooper, Iron Maiden (think Eddie), Elvis, The Misfits...all bands that would work great in a pinball theme appealing to 50 year old males.
I'd buy a Maiden pin and a Ramones pin in a heartbeat.
Or a Alice Cooper/Rob Zombie Gruesome Twosome pin.

Maiden is liked by all ages
Got some news that AC/DC press release may be in a few days. Next week at the latest. 2012 will be an amazing year in pinball that's for sure.
Quoted from All_Hail_Ming:I would like to see a AC/DC game, but think that the real rock n roller pinball would be Alice Cooper. Can you imagine the game play. Classic old skool look with a modern playfield. It could be like Addams Family. Snakes. Fire bombs. The Dead. Guillotine that cuts off Alice's head! and best yet... you could build up Alice's Frankenstein monster to come alive as the main attraction piece!!! AH man, Vincent Price's voice spouting out creepy phrases. Monster sounds. and Alice riffs and tunes!!!
Or
For a modern horror themed game. How about Rob Zombie!!! Same deal. Multi levels. Trips to Hellbilly's den. Astro Zombies. Living Dead Girls. Blood dripping effects. Heavy, heavy riffs. Creepy undertones. Blood filed guitars for flippers! I could go on.
Man, what I'd give to be a game designer. ha
You'll see a custom Rob Zombie pin at expo this year
