What pinball theme would you like to see made that has no chance of being produced?
Quoted from MiniPinHead:What pinball theme would you like to see made that has no chance of being produced?
Warren Zevon, cause we need another music pin.
Ducktales. A great cartoon and one of the best NES games of the early 90s, with lots of characters and storylines to pull from. I couldn't see anyone other than Spooky trying to do it, and I don't think that they'll be at the level of dealing with Disney anytime soon.
Insert at least 10 video games here. Video games are now a bigger industry than the music and movie industries combined, but we keep making incredibly niche themes from 1000 years ago.
Quoted from PinMonk:Finally, a challenge for Stern.

Elwin would figure it out somehow.
Quoted from TreyBo69:Dragon Ball Z
It’s anime alien wrestling. It’s a perfect theme. But very niche
Finally, an excuse to remake Champion Pub.
Quoted from DugFreez:The Aquabats / The Aquabats Super Show

I can actually see Spooky pulling this off once they run out of horror movies. Only complication would be potential rights entanglements with Warner Bros and Hasbro for the TV show, but if they can swing Looney Tunes something like Aquabats should be cake.
Adventure Time
Mortal Kombat
Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal
All themes with plenty of material to execute a great pin.
Elton John, Labyrnith, Venom, Pulp Fiction, Foo Fighters, Godfather…..This was the year of never say never.
Quoted from EJS:Office Space
Avoid the T.P.S. report outlanes. Start paper jam mode. Lock save lit.
If Pulp Fiction and The Big Lebowski can be made, then Office Space definitely deserves a chance
Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension
Catchy music, tons of call out potential. Peter Weller deserves a better pin than Robocop.
Quoted from Pinster5000:[quoted image]
Cosby has no chance, agreed.
Maybe Family Matters and Steve Urkel?
Could go an ABC TGIF-themed pin, but now we’re getting too realistic
Pink Floyd - still hoping cause Nick Mason likes pinball - but Gilmour and Waters just don’t seem get along all to well for the past 40 years haha...
Quoted from Yngwie36:Adventure Time
Mortal Kombat
Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal

I thought the same about Primal, after I finished watching it. It would be AWESOME.
I would love a Hellboy (comic edition)
I’ve mentioned it before, but King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard would be amazing. So much material and imagery to pull from, and their music gets the blood pumping.
A Wilco one could be cool too, and they’re based in Chicago, which is perfect.
Radiohead
Quoted from PinMonk:More seriously...[quoted image][quoted image]
I would jump at a pin dedicated to Jackie Daytona
