GOTG is easily my favorite of all the Marvel movies, slightly edging out Iron Man.

It's one of the few films of the past few years that I can watch over and over and over again.

If this is indeed Borg's next pin, in all likelihood this will be my first Premium!

Quoted from EchoVictor:

To me that leaves only one choice for a major character that wouldn't be too expensive.....Dave Bautista / Drax. I would totally love Drax giving the player a hard time during a game.

Dave Bautista doing call outs as Drax would probably be my first choice on a GOTG pin regardless of whether they could get anyone else.

As far as a bash toy, I wouldn't mind seeing Thanos somewhere on the playfield.

Can't wait to see the first photos...hopefully soon! I bet it has more toys than SW!

Purposely holding onto pin funds until this (or whatever is next) is revealed.

#196 6 years ago
Quoted from Who-Dey:

I would say that you are correct. It.must be really expensive or something to do that is all.I can figure. JJP doesn't have the original pirates music or call outs either and they are charging crazy prices even. I'd love to see the music in this game though for sure.

My hope is that the artists whose songs are featured on the GotG soundtracks would be a bit easier to work with and more affordable to secure from a licensing perspective.

The thought of starting a game to:

Ooga-chaka Ooga-Ooga
Ooga-chaka Ooga-Ooga
Ooga-chaka Ooga-Ooga
Ooga-chaka Ooga-Ooga

...has me hooked on the thought of buying this game!

#203 6 years ago
Quoted from Pimp77:

But here's the rub: if they manage to secure a lot of the music you know they are cutting budget out of the pin elsewhere, right? I'd rather the money go somewhere on the pf.

You might be right, but I have faith I'm going to be glad I held onto money I had earmarked for SW.

In Borg I trust...especially when he hasn't been rushed to turn something around more quickly than he'd like.

#206 6 years ago
Quoted from Pimp77:

Totally. Borg and Nordman are the best designers currently IMO.

And are a couple of the nicest, most down-to-earth guys around!

#226 6 years ago

I hope it's Guardians, and I hope it's Borg, because I'd like to see what he'd do given time and a non-music theme.

And I just caught up with the latest issues of the GotG comic book earlier today to further fuel my excitement.

#314 6 years ago

Hopefully they don't just paint a bunch of Death Star toys purple and call them Ego the Living Planet.

Seriously though, I think if done right, this theme holds so much promise. I was one who thought the movie looked dumb a few years ago when it was announced, and it turns out to be my favorite of the Marvel movies.

I really hope the scene of Star-Lord cranking up the middle finger makes the cut (Premium translite?)!

#324 6 years ago

I was just looking at the Archived game page on the Stern site, and look what I found!

Furry Hats must be coming very soon!

Maybe my family and I will see something at the factory when we stop by next Wednesday after my son's latest clinic visit.

We always make it a point to go to Portillo's then Krispy Kreme then Stern afterwards.

Maybe we'll see it on the line!!!

Quoted from Wolfmarsh:

Yondu's yaka arrow would be a cool cannon toy.

Maybe they'll reuse the crossbow mech from TWD for a Yondu arrow shooter.

Quoted from Rarehero:

Pro still has the STDM scoop when I've played those....and the weird rules. I really tried to jam on it a bunch this weekend to see if it would click. It didn't, so like all the other SPIKE Sterns, I'm done with it. My girlfriend, who's an actual hardcore Star Wars fan, looked at me and said "Really? Again?" Every time I put quarters into another SW....lol....she hated it from play 1 and didn't even care to try it again....she played other games.

I'm considering a SW Pro (only played the Premium), but my wife won't be happy, because she really, really disliked it. And she's just as into Star Wars movies as I am. I don't know how I feel about it. I've actually started to wonder if GOT Pro might be the better choice.

But anyways...back to GotG...

Announcement on Tuesday works well for me.

I'll be at the factory on Wednesday with my family visiting John. Hopefully they'll have some pros they're getting ready to ship overseas that are playable.
