Does anybody here really think the company that recently brought you Beatles, Munsters, Iron Maiden and Elvira had Rick and Morty on their radar or even heard of it until it was announced Spooky was going to do it?

The only reason they would have even picked up the license would have been to cockblock Spooky like they did with Godzilla if they even thought it had some value.

Not enough prior interest or shut up and take my money posts on pinside to even get their attention.

No, the right people are making this game. And nobody else in the industry would have had the balls to do it.

And if Scott worked at Stern instead of Spooky,

his Rick and Morty layout would have become REO Speedwagon or Styx.

I will give them this.

If Stern was making Rick and Morty, it would be hard to be much worse than that steaming pile Stranger Things they just released.

I wouldn't want it.

I've seen enough to know that's what I want in a modern pinball game. Nobody else seems to be able to step up to the plate.

Throw a butter cab and sales tax on it and it's looking substantially more by the time it gets here. But I'm almost certain it will be more to my liking and stick around longer than that moon cratered BM66.

Better to get what I really want from a company I've learned to like, than settle for something else just to have a new game. If anythng, this hobby has made me a little more choosy what games I buy and who I buy them from.

I've been saving all my bottles and cans.
