Just checked the mail and my 6 year old daughter got a new catalog from American Girl. Now you can buy a pinball machine for your dolls.

Edit: check out this YouTube video- it really works- lights, sound and scoring.
They should definitely do a full size coin op version.
It's all about modern, relevant themes now and that is one I can certainly relate to.
If Stern wants to stay relevant as a “lifestyle brand” they need to get with the times!! They could have a real machine at all of the American Girl stores.
Quoted from TomDK:Playfield coating okay ?!
For $150, it better have diamond plate playfield
Funny thing is when I was 6 years old we got in trouble for drawing peace signs on our school artwork.
What is old is now new again.
Quoted from Coz:For $150, it better have diamond plate playfield
$150 is cheap for American Girl stuff oddly enough. This stuff is crazy expensive and the kids (and parents) eat this stuff up. Good quality stuff though.
This is way cooler than that neon little pony crap they were selling when my daughter was six.
This is obviously a tribute to late 60s hippy style.
Quoted from ralphcousman:That looks like they are trying to get kids to do psychedelics lol.
The character Julie is based on the early 1970s.
All of the American Girls are from a different time period in American history
Quoted from Coz:The character Julie is based on the early 1970s.
Was she on The Dating Game?

Well trot it down and sell it off. Ought to be worth about one 80s game. 
Quoted from LateCenturyMods:Well trot it down and sell it off. Ought to be worth about one 80s game.
My wife is shaking her head NO right now.

I’ve seen some old original ones sell for hundreds of dollars- sell them and buy a new pin

Trade you for a box of vintage Littlest Pet Shop toys and some Webkinz.
Quoted from Mike_J:Better built than Stern
Yeah maybe American girl does not want to be cheapened through association.
Quoted from o-din:They should definitely do a full size coin op version.

I knew you would love this. 
Quoted from Mike_J:My daughter has a room devoted to all of that American Girl stuff.
Guess what? Eventually it will be in the attic and you will get your room back.
Quoted from bssbllr:Guess what? Eventually it will be in the attic and you will get your room back.
Kinda nutty. My wife had me build shelves and display cases for these things a couple of years ago.
When I walk in there late at night I can’t help but think of Talking Tina from The Twilight Zone.
I can’t wait until they make that one way trip to the attic.
Quoted from bssbllr:Yeah I already have a second tote full of the second generation my little pony.
I have the entire first run of Spongebob toys. Nobody's getting those.
My daughter has some American Girl stuff. I’ll probably get this for her for Christmas. It will go nice next to the shaved ice stand and Resturant in her room. Thanks for posting!
Our daughter got this catalog today as well. She said since I have pinball machines I should buy her one for her doll. I said i would only if it actually played pinball. Well the video posted above sealed the deal. Looks like I'm buying one this month. Not too bad of a deal for it actually working and saving the high score.
I will post an unboxing video for all to enjoy. Forget Elvira, the American Doll machine is where it's at.
Quoted from northvibe:Gameplay and review 2:00 minutes in
Was this review done by arcade and pinball talk? Excellent review
Quoted from Coz:Was this review done by arcade and pinball talk? Excellent review
Bowen needs to help this girl out. Monkey flipping and all.
My daughter loves the Our Generation & American Girl dolls but she would just care about the dolls. No way she is going to care about this mini pinball machine at all.
Quoted from cait001:No way she is going to care about this mini pinball machine at all.
You can always say you bought it for her. While you play it secretively late nights. I know there is some hidden passion to have this on your game list.
I predict this will be the hit of pinball expo 2019! Maybe ZMeny and
Hollywoodbone will have an SDTM unboxing video. Maybe it will be on the FlipNOut stream with Ken and Bill.

Better playability than Magic Girl.
Quoted from Krh13:Forget Elvira, the American Doll machine is where it's at.
Now that we know they actually work, who's starting a "mini-pin" arcade???????? 
Lots of pinsiders have daughters and granddaughters who would love this as a birthday or Christmas present. Maybe stern could have some mini versions of its current pins and partnerships with companies like American Girl.
Quoted from pinmister:My daughter will want this.
If anyone has a low play huo(no playfield issues) for sale-hit me up
There will be dimpeling!
