Quoted from GamerRick:

This pin does look really cool. Let’s hope the JP LEs coming off the line have been fixed and if so then this machine should be OK. That specific question needs to be asked at Expo for sure.

Looking forward to watching the Dead Flip stream tomorrow! I'm much more excited about Elvira 3 then Jurassic Park. I think Elvira 3 has better toys, multiple molded toys, better sound, far more licensed assets, and will have the far deeper ruleset that will not be split and limited due to pro, and premium / LE models having different mechs.

In the TWIP article I see that the "Haunt Modes" (the main modes) surround a monster from the 26 films below. Does this mean there are 26 Haunt Modes? Maybe, maybe not. The article mentions that Haunt Modes are related to rooms in the house. Are there really 26 rooms in that house? Who knows lol. I'm sure there will be a lot of these modes with Lyman on code.

A Bucket Of Blood (1959)
Attack Of The Giant Leeches (1959)
Beast From Haunted Cave (1959)
Don’t Look In The Basement (1973)
Eegah (1962)
Hercules And The Captive Women (1963)
I Eat Your Skin (1964)
Jesse James Meets Frankenstein’s Daughter (1965)
Lady Frankenstein (1971)
Manos: The Hands Of Fate (1966)
Monster From A Prehistoric Planet (1967)
Night Of The Living Dead (1968)
Santa Claus Conquers The Martians (1964)
Scared To Death (1947)
Teenagers From Outer Space (1959)
The Brain That Wouldn’t Die (1962)
The Giant Gila Monster (1959)
The Killer Shrews (1959)
The Manster (1959)
The Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973)
The Terror (1963)
The Wasp Woman (1960)
The Werewolf Of Washington (1973)
The Wild Women Of Wongo (1958)
Tormented (1960)
Untamed Women (1952)

It looks like there are 8-9 windows plus the garage (maybe a basement under the ramp - Don’t Look in the Basement).

I think that certain rooms are linked to certain movies, so if you go for a certain room you will expect to get one of three or four haunts. Like one room might be the “crazed women” room with Untamed Women or Wild Women of Wongo or Wasp Women. I don’t know if they will be geared around themes but I think this is how it works.

Quoted from Cdonnerusmc:

Thank you sir! I started collecting while I was still in the military back in 2005. It took me many years and many deployments overseas to accumulate the games. I always knew I wanted to open a place, I just stayed focused and kept working towards my goal. Thank you again!</blockquot

Thank you for your service!! Also congrats on your collection.

Well if you brought it home without discussing it first what the hell were you expecting lol

Maybe pleasant surprise, not unlike coming home and bringing her diamond earrings.

#2609 4 years ago

So the Stern release photos show artwork under the slings. Wonder how old that pic is. My distro told me they just changed the LE boards on the line for JP. Assuming they have to do this for Elvira also.

Yeah well the diamond rings would be for her. Sounds like that’s not the case with the pin he described.

I've been following the development since @DennisNordman first started the thread about a third Elvira 6 years ago, very impressed by this new version! Also I Love Greg's art. But has anyone noticed this line in Elvira's leg on the center art? I know Greg is a detail freak but as an artist myself, I don't see what this line is (circled in yellow) on the leg. It's not her other leg because the line has limits on each end, but it does not seem to fit anatomically.

Don't get me wrong, I love this theme, impressed by the design, and I feel the art package is killer! Can't wait to see game play tomorrow and get one of these home. Just curious if anyone else noticed this art decesion and has opinions

BTW, if we're still voting on the name: As a scientist, it's logical for me that we should follow the words of the game title , with less important words lowercase.

Looks fine to me, it's just the contour of the leg muscle.

I know you pinball nerds are not familiar with muscles or women's legs but I believe that's a shadow line from her quad.

(Just kidding around don't be sad)

Looks to me like it’s just her standing with her right leg crossed in front of her left leg in kind of a horror movie “Oh no!” pose.

You would think if everyone was talking that much about Elvira it would be about a different part of her anatomy.
