    Just announced. Wow .

    A lot of ramps. Widebody. A lot of flow.
    A lot of terror. Due out April 2015.

    #2 9 years ago

    4 flippers, lots of ramps etc..

    #3 9 years ago

    Sweet!

    #4 9 years ago

    Oh snap! Great theme!

    What's the price of the game?

    Also, can the team leverage the audio (including vocals) from the films? If so which ones?

    #5 9 years ago

    Artwork by Giger???

    (obviously before he died earlier this year....)

    #6 9 years ago

    Where are the pics guys ????
    Surprised its a wide body

    #7 9 years ago

    OK I dig both predator, aliens, always loved the movies and still do... but please tell me the next sci-fi horror title is JAWS.

    #8 9 years ago

    GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!

    #9 9 years ago

    Will this break the 10k price point?

    #10 9 years ago

    And APRIL? Damn. I was really hoping for Godzilla by ANYONE but this is a good close second!

    #11 9 years ago

    Game features a rotating air lock that changes to an alien to battle, then finally the alien queen.

    #12 9 years ago

    This is great!! Go Heighway!!!

    Quoted from ZenTron:

    I sure hope not!

    #14 9 years ago
    Quoted from Frax:

    GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!

    #15 9 years ago

    $6150 plus shipping from the US, sounds reasonable if it is equivalent to a Stern LE/premium

    #16 9 years ago

    That's very reasonable depending on what is offered in the game. Are there any pics out?

    #17 9 years ago

    Great theme! I want to see more info now.

    #18 9 years ago

    Due out in April....yea. Dont believe the hype.
    Unless there is a white wood now and orders placed for parts now ....not happening.

    Not knowing the back round beyond this post so thats just my take info posted.

    #19 9 years ago

    This will likely happen. This is a machine I would be interested in, depending on layout.

    #20 9 years ago

    More info here http://heighwaypinball.com/?page_id=1248 just browsed the website. I asked for number 426

    #21 9 years ago

    I think he said $6185 for the standard and $7800 for the LE.

    All of the info on heighwaypinball.com

    #22 9 years ago

    Widebody, so owners of Full Throttle will not be able to buy this to as a playfield swap?
    I love the theme and can't wait to see pics.

    #23 9 years ago

    Nordman is doing it; pretty much a guarantee the layout is rock solid.

    #24 9 years ago

    This will be a winner.

    Nice!

    #26 9 years ago

    Nordman is the man! And this is the perfect theme for me.

    #27 9 years ago

    Wait...I thought Heighway had built a modular system...Is Alien something totally different?

    #28 9 years ago

    This has my full attention. +1 on the Giger art.

    #29 9 years ago

    Wow.. an incredible time to be in this hobby for sure

    #30 9 years ago

    The LE has the shooter rod on the left side. Must be a British pinball machine.
    See picture:

    No, you WILL be able to do a playfield swap and put Alien into Full throttle.

    ( I could be wrong. but that is what I understood)

    You will also be able to put an LE playfield into a standard body (and vice versa).

    I also understood that they have 6 games in various stages of development. 3 Licensed, 3 non-licensed. (full throttle and Alien first of each category)

    #32 9 years ago

    Is this going to have actual stuff from the movie in it? (Characters, clips, voices, et cet.) Or is getting Stern's The Walking Dead timeless generic sci fi movie treatment?

    #33 9 years ago

    Did I hear it has fiber optic ramps like Tron LE?

    #34 9 years ago

    Artwork better be hand drawn or people on here are going to throw a fit

    #35 9 years ago

    Post edited by vid1900: Sorry, I was not supposed to post that image. Replacement offered

    #36 9 years ago

    I wish there were more details on the LE. I will be getting this game one way or another, be it a normal or LE, but I need to know what more is offered on the latter. This is perhaps the most long overdue theme for a pinball machine ever.

    #37 9 years ago

    Bloody hell.Yeah

    #38 9 years ago

    From Heighway's website:

    Features:
    4 Flippers
    Alien Xenomorph Models
    Facehuggers
    Chest Bursters
    Space Jockey
    Pulse Rifle Gunfights
    Robot Sentries
    + Much Much More!!

    Only mentions weapons and aliens from the movies. No characters, voices, or anything else. I really hope they are included.

    Awesome! Dennis is the Nord-MAN!

    Full Throttle is a wide body

    Dennis designed this for a year. They need Fox to sign off to show it

    #41 9 years ago

    Getting #2

    Glad to see Dennis back with this game

    #42 9 years ago

    I love it. I just hope they don't plaster Sigourney Weaver all over it.

    Where did you get that image from, because if that's marketing from Heighway then it would mean that the art will be good.

    EDIT: I just saw in another thread that you're just posting stuff that is not connected to Heighway.

    Note to Heighway, hire that artist.
    Or this artist...

    Ken Taylor

    Aliens+by+Ken+Taylor+(Regular).jpgAliens+by+Ken+Taylor+(Regular).jpg

    The playfield would be great.

    #45 9 years ago

    too many choices... TBL was amazing. RAZA sounds amazing. TWD was awesome. ALIENS sounds fantastic. Damn it.

    #46 9 years ago

    F me……………….my head is spinning right now….

    #47 9 years ago

    so if you have a predator, it'll really tie the room together?

    Someone texted it to me from a 513 area code.

    #49 9 years ago

    Hey...I guessed pretty close...
