Please do this JJP! A Back to the Future trilogy pinball would sell like crazy, and I bet sell better then Willy Wonka or Toy Story.
LE? Laser etched 304 grade stainless side armor (same as Delorean) with time circuit lighting affects! (think Star Trek LE)
If getting Michael J. Fox on board would be an issue as a gesture of good will maybe JJP making a donation to Michael J. Foxes foundation for every game sold would help to allow JJP to use his likeness / audio and video from the films.
Quoted from pinballwil:I think Stern would do a great job making bttf again instead of jjp.
Bttf needs a fast playfield and no widebody.
So a jjp is out of the question.
Back to the Future pinball needs multiple toys and deep code covering all 3 movies so not Stern, lol.
Quoted from J85M:True but not many themes have the following that BTTF does.
Nike & Micheal J Fox collaborated in 2011 and released a limited edition of 1500 pairs of the Nike Air Mag’s from BTTF2, they sold for 1000’s.
One of the prop shoes worn by MJ Fox in BTTF sold recently on eBay for nearly $100k so I think LE pinball sales would be an easy sell with BTTF fans.
Yup! Good point. Also remember the Pepsi Free Back to the Future 2 bottle that was sold? They sold out in seconds on Amazon at I think $20 and were selling for nearly $200 on EBay. Very very few themes have that type of draw.
Incase anyone is wondering whether or not kids in their early 20's know what Back to the Future is the answer is a resounding yes. Check out the video below where college students are asked if they know what movie the posters are from, starts at BTTF section. Every single person asked recognized the Back to the Future poster. In close second were The Goonies and Beetlejuice. Everyone also knew Karate Kid but I don't see that being a good theme for a pin.
The company that makes a new Back to the Future trilogy pinball machine, if done right, will have a title that will print them money. The theme has a ton of content to pull from across the 3 films which would make for unique and deep rules and above all its FUN!
