    Theme is big for me. Too many good games out there not to have what you can relate to and enjoy. I like playing Iron Maiden, but not sure it would last long in my home. I really never listened to their music and I am unable to relate. Same goes for BM66, I am sure it is turning out to be a great game, but for me I never grew up watching it and so I have zero interest. Now when it comes to cheap b titles-you can have some flexibility because you get a lot of bang for your buck. I probably would not own Barbwire if the layout and game play sucked. It has a unique, fun layout and so I look passed the cheesy theme. As far as art goes, the only pinball that would be banned in my home is Hard Body-the cheese factor is just too much.

    I want to pump up my collection-but unable to look at possibly the worst pinball theme ever produced!

    Quoted from TheLaw:

    you were there the day the "couchgument" was born.

    I don't know, technically there has been plenty of couchgument's if you include all of the people with big couch's in their gameroom that took up valuable space and whether or not to ditch the couch in favor of more machines.

    I do look at pinball as art as well, I do have my MMR sitting in the middle of my family room. #1 rated machine deserves to be looked at daily.

    Quoted from Pinstein:

    Totally agree. I started working on a decal for that angus head but lost interest.

    I really like it, dig Luci peeping out of corner. If you decide to make them I would take one. Willing to pay $20-$25 for one. Please let me know if you decide to make them.

    Thanks
