Looks awesome to me so far. Love the Haunted House of Horrors centerpiece toy. If it’s made of quality materials, it’s a pretty complex toy model, a bit like the MM castle, but maybe bigger? Looks really cool to me. If the code is solid and the animations are good, this should be a hit. I’m already checking my sofa cushions for $8k...

Definitely looks like ramp flaps in both orbits. Why? A standard orbit doesn’t need them, right? So is there something behind the house that’s more involved? So many secrets.

This is the 3rd game featuring Elvira, right? Why isn’t this E3? Do people feel Scared Stiff isn’t Elvira’s 2nd pin? Because her name isn’t in the title?

In any event, looks awesome and I really hope to go NIB if early reviews are strong. And you guys are right, I don’t think those are split ramp flaps in both orbits. Looks like headlight art from the red vehicles. It looked like ramp flaps at first to me in low res.

Quoted from Diospinball:

Costs more than my house... Or rather what I bought my house for... However, I view my house as a place to store my stuff. Most important of which is my pins. My friends all joke with me that I could have fully paid off my house by now if I didn't own any pinball.
Maybe they are right... But, then I wouldnt have any pins to play in my house and life is just too short, not to enjoy the things you love. No matter what they cost.

I agree. I always tell my wife, we still have most of the money I spend on this hobby, except the money is shaped like pinball machines instead of numbers on a bank account. I could sell my collection and have more money in the bank, but would I enjoy that more? No doubt some people would feel better having more cash in the bank. I prefer to collect pins and engage with people in the hobby. And put purple lights all over my games! Oh geez. Ignore that last part.

It is? Oh, dear.

Quoted from Jason_Jehosaphat:

Disabling the VUK kicker in settings?
My instinct is to preserve the playfield and disable that high-flying Crypt eject above the right standups.
However, if it were disabled in the settings, how would the ball be returned to the playfield?

Could a carefully placed piece of mylar where the ball lands be helpful? I had a DILE last year, and the ball dropped onto the playfield from the "Station 3" ramp. I placed a small circle of mylar where the ball landed and felt better about it. It may not be 100% prevention, but might slow any wear there.
