Quoted from Jetzxi:which one?
There are more? A lot of us refuse to sign up to Facebook.

This is how a god-darned, son of a biscuit, Jesus on a cracker, oh hell yeah, they went there pinball machine should look like!!!! It's like Skitbpinball tore open my deepest pf art desires and tossed them violently onto wood!
Yeah, Ricky likey!
Rick. "I'm gonna have me some fun." #190. HELL YEAH!
This is the exact pick me up I needed after the whole lack of TFLE code update!! Now to take my head back out of the oven here...
Quoted from system11:There are more? A lot of us refuse to sign up to Facebook.
Just bigger pics of the outlanes but J got it covered
Quoted from SkitBPinball:You guys are spoiled, you got to see that latest pic before I did! Damned Facebook
That artwork is just plain badass! I can't wait to see the full color on it. Ordering this pin was the best decision I made. If we were truly spoiled you would show us some toy pictures or video *pounds hands and feet on the floor*
J/k
Quoted from Jedidentist:I think it looks horrible. You guys that are thinking of backing out, should do it while you can...so those of us on the wait list can take your spot
Sudbury were I grew up. Your welcome to come play mine anytime.
Quoted from SkitBPinball:I wonder where this will go when it's finished??
F***ING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quoted from SkitBPinball:I wonder where this will go when it's finished??
Since I've seen the movie many times, do I dare to guess?? 
Nah, it couldn't go there... 
I am getting a real good feeling this is going to be one badass adult themed pin. Thanks for the updates today. Keep it going strong SkitB.
Quoted from blondetall:I'm sitting here pondering whether a pinball would fit in those eye sockets...
How BOP 
Beautiful work Kevin and Aaron!
Obviously that skull would look awesome on the left in-lane plastic being clutched by the Predator on the pf, but the fear of blocking sightlines would be there.
Have a great holiday guys!
Thanks for the Christmas treat.
Wow, so glad I got in on this machine early! The adult theme was the driving factor for me but that artwork surprises me how good it looks! Keep up the great work guys!

Quoted from SkitBPinball:I wonder where this will go when it's finished??
So they said every toy will interact with the game I wonder how this will play into it?
Quoted from blondetall:I'm sitting here pondering whether a pinball would fit in those eye sockets...
You mean like CSI
(See prototype skull pic above.)
At least I think it's a toy, since they said everything would be interactive. That's why I was wondering about eyesockets holding balls.
Quoted from rai:WoZ is quite beautiful and colorful, great for a pin, nothing wrong with WoZ artwork.
I agree with this very much. I think the WoZ is simply beautiful to look at throughout. I'm generally not a big fan of how most Stern stuff looks, but I have to admit I really dig the obnoxious green Hulk Avengers.
Quoted from Pinballfantexas:So they said every toy will interact with the game I wonder how this will play into it?
All of the toys will be interactive, but a some will be more interactive than others. The skull is probably the least interactive directly (no balls in the eyes like CSI, BOP, whatever else), but the finished game couldn't function without it. That's all I'm gonna say 
Quoted from dannunz:Any word from matt on the prototype toys?
Should be seeing some new stuff pretty soon. I was worried about showing off the skull piece before it was finished, but you guys seem to really like it and understand that it's not going to be just a white skull stuck on the game somewhere, so that's a load off. Maybe we'll get some more proto stuff up here in the weeks to come.
Kevin (and team)
I would like to say thanks for taking the time to post as much as you do. I am not the biggest fan of the movie Predator. At first, I was only slightly interested in Predator pin. However, the reason, I am so excited about Predator Pinball, is your posting and the videos and the team you have and the way you let it be know that you read what we have to say and are willing to let us in on the creation of the pin so to speak.
I think it's funny, not making fun of you, but I get an email from you and it's like 30 days after my email. I almost forgot what I was asking about. That adds to the charm. Many years from now when we talk about this, one of your quirks will be, "Kevin actually answers his email, maybe six months later but he answers his emails".
Keep up the great work.
Quoted from rai:I am not the biggest fan of the movie Predator.
I think it's been proven many times over that even lousy movies can have great pins made. I wouldn't worry at all about being a fan of the movie. We're obviously going to have something really special and unique.

Thanks, rai. We don't have the luxury of being able to take the game everywhere all the time, so it's nice to have a centralized place online where we can get feedback on what we're doing. Honestly, the ideas wouldn't be implemented if they weren't legitimately good ideas, so pat yourselves on the back, as well!
Quoted from rai:Many years from now when we talk about this, one of your quirks will be, "Kevin actually answers his email, maybe six months later but he answers his emails".
Yeah, I know, I'm really bad about emails and such. It's kind of my own fault, though, because I refuse to let anyone else do my emails and talk to people on my behalf. People around here tell me that I need to consider getting like a secretary or something, but I just can't see that happening. Maybe somebody who can go through them all and organize them for me, but probably not give out information or "chat" on my behalf. I would hate to see an email going out that says "We are currently looking into the issue. Thank you for your concern." or something like that. Like you said, it may become a quirk eventually, and for now you guys seem to be pretty understanding of my poor scheduling

Congo is a great example I prefer to think of it as an unlicensed theme since it is better if you do not think about the movie.

Man you really got me trying to figure out how the skull is needed in such a way that the finished game can't function without it? Also if the other toys look as good as the skull then this game is gonna be amazing from an artistic standpoint. The skull looks awesome and can only imagine how much better it will look with shading and definition.
Quoted from Whysnow:Congo is a great example I prefer to think of it as an unlicensed theme since it is better if you do not think about the movie.
Johnny Mnemonic is another good example... The Matrix pin may prove it.
Back on topic... Personally IMO The Predatot is a great movie, especially considering its 26 years old...
I was thinking the skull is a shooter rod handle but I can't remember if it has a plunger or just a button. It's also pretty small by looking at your hands. Hmm... Any hints? Is this a playfield toy or a cabinet toy? I think someone said something about it going over the left sling or outlane, this would seem like a good guess. Anyway I'll stop pestering about it. I'm just anxious to play this game.

Pretty small? I was thinking it was pretty big actually; especially considering how much room there is in a pinball machine... (The prototype used a launch button for firing the pinball.) Needless to say, I'm intrigued as to what it will be.
