I am enjoying the discussion here and agree with many of the pros and cons. I am a person that puts theme as one of the most important criteria so I really understand why some people would have to own this pin if it was a dream theme for them. It looks like it has a lot of potential from a gameplay perspective. Happy for those that love the theme and want the pin.
I loved the show as a kid but it long ago lost it's appeal for me. While I can deal with the campiness I would never be able to own it due to the "tinny" and repetitive sound effects which were a great part of the show in it's day. Those sound effects have run the course for me and do not have any appeal. The light and sound effects are a big part of pinball for me so the sound effects in this game would rule it out for me. I love the effort by Stern and certainly hope that this pin appeals to many of you and that it turns out to be great.
Happy new year folks.
