Quoted from oscarspa:Since JJ has said he still has time to improve mechanics and electronics, I think you should expose positively improvements you think would improve the game significantly, I propose some
1.-.Smaug™ will interact with the ball and samug full body
2.-replacing the 3 right drop targets in front of Smaug and making them a motorized target bank (AFM, Tron and SM style) with some type of shot behind it would please a lot of people. Such as change could be made that would still not involve Samug being directly hit
3.- Smaug(TM)..that FILLS THE ENTIRE BACK OF THE GAME.
4.-Replace Toy Book by the door would open to reveal the LCD behind it.
5.- the areas in the back left & right corners of the playfield could add more mountains by smaug, waterfalls by the poppers, more gold, more smaug body parts, anything really.
6.-New Idea, Replace back of the playfield by a lcd screen play scenes of the movie, like mountains, rivers, landscape, what do you think?, (for this improvement would buy gold if option smaug)

Rework a entire game with one month to go...
I'm going to wait till after iappa. Then I'm sending my topper design to the mod father to see if he wants to make and sell it.
Quoted from Pinhead1982:I'm not sure what is between the speakers at the top of the back box,
Would be cool it it was a plastic coloured like the arckinstone and a mini motorised light (yes like Stern ST laser on premium models) that projected the colours of the arkinstone onto the glass in a final mode or something.
Edit: looking at the brochure looks like it is a detail of the arkinstone in the centre, might just be detailing or might be something like I mentioned above!
Make it happen Jack
It's a decal. Nothing but a decal. Some day down the road in another game it could be something else..
Quoted from mummite:yep, that is a bit disappointing. Also where are the spotlights? I would like to see more attention to the lighting Woz was so dark.
There's a row of led lights built into the front of the apron pointed up toward the flippers. There's a black rib on both sides above them protecting the player from seeing them. At least there was in the one at expo anyway.
U can kinda see it in this picture near the shooter lane save hole
