    My wife and I were talking about new pins...and would really like to see this one made. A lockball below the game field "sh!tters full". Kitty getting fried by the Christmas lights (kinda like Sparky). A light show that blinds you...lighting of the Christmas lights on the house. Cutting the Christmas tree and the bobsled after, and the VW RV coming down the street (ramps). Even Clark caught in the attic...an upper playfield. All with movie takes on the LCD. I think Spooky could make this one. Just a thought.

    A dream theme for me. IMO possibly the funniest film ever made. Would love to see it done. I can picture extra LEDs under plastics that are only used during a light show mode, blinding you as you try to play.

    I can agree with this one! I think a limited run would sell pretty well!

    What!? Better than The Nightmare Before Christmas?

    You have one of the best homebrew pins I’ve ever seen. A true masterpiece!

    I wanted to, after watching that movie. Something about the narrative structure/flashback nostalgia bugged me.

    Christmas Vacation is decent but it's so under the original it's hard to give it a ton of love. Certain(T)ly not the best Xmas movie ever.

    I was just thinking I wish they made a Christmas Vacation themed pin - here’s to hoping it happens!

    The game could be set to free play 11 months out of the year and then jacked up to $2.00 a game during Christmas. Like the streaming services do!

    It’s a great idea for a pinball machine IMO

    I wonder if ASOA took any deposits on imaginary “Christmas Vacation” pinball machines.
