Little too old of a theme to make it with all of todays possible titles.
Hell, I would love to see a new Star Wars pin (yes, I am aware of DESW, SET, SWE1.

Loved the show as a kid. I would have to go with the original Daisy Duke though.

I have said this a few times over the last 2 years in various threads, would have to have a jump ramp for sure with collecting moonshine as the goals. This was a popular show in Aus as well back in the day and those guys would all be in their 40's so a perfect buying age.

the duke boys liked playing the old pins

and couldn't find alot but a guy made his own at one stage

I bet it could be a good theme! +1

WTF is up with that flyer? Jungle with a Sheriff BG?

You can't do it without having the General Lee prominently featured and no one is going to want to produce a pin with the confederate flag displayed like that.

What's controversial about the Confederate flag?

Edit...

I agree and and then you get guys like this that would buy one in a flash

it was an old post on the net about a similar subject but in the show the cabinet is the jungle cabinet with a sheriff backglass - which you can see in the photo.

Nope, it's photoshopped LOTR

I've talked about this for a few years also - Im looking for a beater High Speed to build my Dukes of Hazzard Pin. Anyone have a high speed that works but blown out playfield and cabinet, let me know. gonna put real dixie air horn under the cabinet.

Gonna weld the coindoor shut to make it more authentic - you have to slide across the glass to add a credit.

Awesome don't forget to say yeeeeehaaaaa when you jump your pinball it will help you land
looks like them duke boys got themselves in a world of trouble now

Give me a "Flash Frenzy"! Could be a fun theme. Maybe add a captive General Lee similar to DM. Better than another superhero theme.

could have a row of flip down drops (instead of drop down targets) = road barriers, get more points the more you can flip down in one shot.

multiball could be a collect (hide) the balls under a bridge or behind a bush

I like it

That is definitely an interesting Gottlieb flier. Did the Dukes game also sport the wrong backglass?
Never mind, question already answered.

What's really strange is the pic of the Dukes is also incorrect, That's a Jungle cabinet with a Sheriff BG and PF. What up with that?

Lots of good ideas in this thread. Has to be the original cast though.

This would probably need to tie-in with a new movie release. Is there another one being made?

Next year would be the 35th anniversary of when the show started... I think the theme qualifies as family friendly too. Would prefer to have it have line art instead of a collage of photos, old cast with Catherine Bach (Daisy) prominently featured in her shots (Strikes n Spares backglass comes to mind for some reason). Would prefer the music from the original show as well.

Coy and Vance Limited Edition? Ummm, no - how about Enos and Turk?

attract mode music/ and shooter lane music:

Multiball music:

nah. Duke boy & charger fan here but it's too far removed from being relevant. Maybe thirty years ago, not now.

you would have to have the air horns in there, maybe for ball launch

the dukes are still loved……. noticed a few characters missing

as for design, maybe have the flag front and centre in the playfield with the stars lighting up with each lot of 3 stars leading to the centre a goal / mission with the centre star being the wizard mod

I can feel people sketching ideas down.

Totally needs a huge jump.... Like blast the barn doors open and then a ramp with a gap. I used to have a Dukes of Hazard toy like that when I was a wee lad

LOL, funny (maybe sad) to think about how many 69 Chargers were trashed making that show. I remember watching so many far away shots of the "General Lee" jumping and pretty much hitting nose down with the car folding up near the firewall, then they'd cut to the dash cam shot with Bo and Luke inside bouncing around like they just landed, and were successfully driving away. Ahhh... the memories!

Kinda like ACDC? Boy was that a bust!

Sounds cool but not current. Next car theme after Mustang will be fast and furious.

No, too much temptation to turn it into a car theme pin. Get rid of the good 'ol boys. Get rid of the Hogg. Lose the goofy sheriff. Leave the Daisy Duke, the namesake of the fantastic shorts. Make it just a Daisy Duke pin...and the original, please.

From what I understand the number was 150-200 or so.

LOL, please. AC/DC is still relevant - they make new music, have huge concerts all over the world, their music is constantly being used in movies, shows & commercials. Legit living icons.

No one cares about Dukes of Hazard. The last thing associated with that property was the horrible 2005 movie, which bombed. More people would be completely unaware of it or just not care about it compared to AC/DC.

I think that is a poor analogy on your part as AC/DC was still a proven commodity as evidenced by the success of the black ice tour. When's the last time the duke boys proved their commercial appeal? I don't think the recent movie really counts but maybe it does for you.

It would have to be done by a boutique guy like Skit-B or something ...it's just too obscure/cult for a mainstream release.

Regardless of where you stand on whether it'd make a good pin theme or not, it's safe to say they don't make TV shows like that anymore. Gone are the days of the innocent, fun TV shows that showed some measure decency and moral values.....except for Duck Dynasty, that is. I think the total Charger carnage number was an official 196, if memory serves me correctly. I adored that show as a kid and I still have the lunchbox and piles of DoH toys to show for it!

As for it being a pin theme, I could totally see it. I think it would translate very well. As to who could do the best job of that, it's up for debate. But, I think JJP has the style to pull it off. By that I mean: enough production "power" to make some great gadgetry, but not make it look and feel cookie-cutter(I'm looking at you Stern).

I would be all over it, what a great theme! That and Knight Rider!

Well this for sure is never happening now

Nah. They should make it anyway Stars and Bars Rebel flag and all. Screw the PC police.

You never know, check back in another year and a half.

lots of great ideas in this tread, could be a winner. Op's might cash in on it also in bar locations and bowling alleys

I totally in for a DoH pin, PC nonsense be damned. Base it off the TV show, ignore the wretched films. Make cabinet sides the confederate flag for good measure

I instantly think of a retheme of HS2, T2 or No Fear. Yep, Steve Ritchie games because the show was all about speed and chases!

HS2 has the most in common with the Dukes: Fast cars (Lamborghini and General Lee), hot women and crazy police chases. The supercharger stays as is because it already fits the theme. The tunnel shot can be either Cooter's garage or the Boar's Nest.

For T2, use the cannon for the bow and arrow shot the Dukes frequently used. Every other shot would be a town chase, cliff jump, etc.

NF simply for the jump shot/cliff jump. It would be cool if somebody could reprogram the magnetic accelerator to lift the ball at different speeds into the upper level, to simulate the slow-mo cliff jumps from the show. This would be accompanied by the GL engine roar and traditional "Yeeeeee Haaaaw!" followed by a landing thud in sync with ball movement. Every other shot easily represents a car chase and the small hill jumps around the mountainous terrain of Hazzard County.

The remaining cast members would make great voice overs, but a few would need stand-ins, due to the death of Denver Pyle, James Best and Sorrell Booke.

Hope somebody takes a shot at this!
