Personally, gameplay and shots are my most important thing on a pin but....

As for original themes, it just doesn't get any better than....

Monster Bash. The Universal Monsters forming a band....

Don't believe me, put one in your game room and watch what happens.

Agree? Best theme ever?

Agreed perfect theme. Gameplay is fun but kind of easy. I would add one to my collection if I could find one locally at a decent price.

Just wait for the remake

Best theme for me Castle and quests....so MM is perfect for me. Have owned Bk - BK2000 and Excalibur trying to get to my grail - MM. So MMrLE is in my future.

A note on Creature, not an original theme necessarily, but referring to the drive in movie theater tie in aspect of the pin's theme.

Addams is such a great theme. What a family..

sorry it's not original. MM would have to be the best original theme

Hooked - do what I did to get MB. Trade or sell 4 lesser pins for the MM.

MM is basically original, whereas Monster Bash is a license. If one thing had to tip the scales in MMs favor that would be it. But there are many things that tip the scale in MMs favor. MB isn't even close in my opinion. A distant "tied for second" (at best) with Attack From Mars and, probably, TOM, which really is a marvelous theme.

Yeah, love Monster Bash but couldn't vote for it because it isn't an original theme.

#9 10 years ago

MM is a pretty sweet theme

Start thread again. Maybe gather the top eight original titles from the 100 list and have a bracket/playoff poll 1v8, 2v7 etc etc etc and you'll get your winner. A stated above creature and monsters need to be left out.
