Quoted from Whridlsoncestood:Those look like the Metallica line of vans shoes.
How many people here do you think even know about Vans?
Quoted from vid1900:How many people here do you think even know about Vans?
Lots of people.....
Quoted from stretch2:Lots of people.....
I hope so.
Anytime I talk to anyone over 18 and they never seem to know what Vans are.
Quoted from vid1900:How many people here do you think even know about Vans?
I'm actually wearing VANS right now. Have done since the early 80's.
(not the same pair though. That would be gross.)
Quoted from Triumvirat73:(not the same pair though. That would be gross.)
I was gonna say..........
Quoted from Whridlsoncestood:Those look like the Metallica line of vans shoes.
They are.
Quoted from bangerjay:Get those f'n shoes off the games and for Christ sakes why are they touching each other?!
Yeah, just wait for a shoe or box to fall off while someone is playing!
Quoted from Captive_Ball:Banger if that bothers you...what does this do to your shoe touching phobia?
I'm going to guess that he was concerned w/ the games touching, not the shoes.
Quoted from Bearded_Warrior:What software was running on them?
No Idea. It's not posted. If I have Time Today I'll drop by and ask.

(not a slide show)
We gotta get these folks together at a big pinball show. It would be a perfect merging of cultures. Imagine CAX with all these folks added in (in a larger room). Best show ever.
Quoted from girloveswaffles:Seen at preview night at San Diego Comic Con (7/17/2013):
Dont show flipperfingers-aka-silverballer67-aka-USandThem that picture, his head will explode.

Do you mean under 18?
I wonder if anyone has ever gone crazy with a sword and chopped a bunch of people up?
Like they sometimes do on the subway in Japan.

If they listen to Jodies fake ass sentiment they might.
Quoted from Aurich:I am over 18 and know what Vans are, for the record.
Same here!
When I was 18 in senior year of HS, I was rocking a pair of SK8-Hi Hosoi shoes.
Getting Back on Topic
Here's a short Video I shot on preview night

I have more, but They're on another camera, so I'll have to edit / upload them later.
Quoted from Bearded_Warrior:What software was running on them?
I asked on Saturday, the guy at the booth said he didn't know which version by number, but it was the most current one.

I think it's safe to assume they're going after first time buyers. Not a lot of pinheads there. Software version won't make much difference.
Turns out MET wasn't the only 'pin' there.

I'm going to assume that the prices listed on that page are MSRP. They even have an LE type upgrade with 'force feedback'.
