Well have been looking the translite and this is my opinion:

- Spengler is looking angry at Venkmans crown
- Venkman is dreaming about some students while using his gun.
- Stanz is scared cause he actually believes in ghosts
- Zeddemore should look at the traps
- Add some detail to the Ecto

Other then that, the composition is cool as well as the colors and the rest! And a big plus for Hand drawn work!

Yup. It seems like the company holding the license, Columbia Pictures, allows much for flexibility in terms of theme use compared to other companies such as AMC (a lot of photoshop on TWD). It also helps that the original actors are on board to allow their characters on the games art as well as sound assets.

A games success or failure can be impacted by how flexible those holding the license are...as well as if the licensee will pay up to use the assets.

Who is coding this?

I continue to find amusement in the fact some people still think this will be based off the new movie.

From a company that just made a pinball about a band that's been irrelevant since 1979.

For a demographic that is almost entirely 35-60 year old men.

Sony is doing a new animated feature too.

Sony’s revived Ghostbusters franchise is expanding into another dimension. The studio is working on an Ghostbusters animated movie, which will arrive after Paul Feig‘s live-action reboot due out next summer. Get more details on the Ghostbusters animated movie after the jump.

The studio confirmed development of an Ghostbusters animated movie to TheWrap. Original Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman is on board to produce, while Kristine Belson and Michael Lachance will oversee the project for Sony Pictures Animation. The studio is now seeking a writer to tackle the project. No director or stars have been announced.

The Ghostbusters were previously cartoon-ified for a TV series that aired on ABC from 1986 to 1991. The new film will follow the same basic premise as the earlier show, revolving around a bunch of scientists who fight supernatural forces together. However, there’s a twist — sources indicate the story will be told from the point of view of a ghost. Which is a pretty genius idea, actually.

In addition, while the Ghostbusters have typically been associated with Manhattan, the new animated movie may go elsewhere. As the trade sagely notes, ” supernatural activity is not limited to a single borough in New York City.”

Sony spent years trying to get a third Ghostbusters movie together before finally Feig finally came along with an idea to reboot the series. But it’s clear their ambitions for the franchise don’t stop there. A second live-action project is in the works with Joe and Anthony Russo — although Reitman’s taken pains to de-emphasize it, perhaps so as to not overshadow the first one.

Feig’s new live-action Ghostbusters stars Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon as a new team of spirit-seekers. Chris Hemsworth is their Annie Potts equivalent, and a slew of original Ghostbusters stars are set to cameo. It’s due out July 15, 2016.

Good question. Rumor was Lyman, but it sounds like that is no longer the case.

I find it hard to believe that this could be the actual artwork.
It looks absolutely ridiculous and amateurish to me. Whoever "leaked" this must be rolling on the floor laughing with all the attention this is getting.

It may not be the final artwork but doesn't mean it's not art made for the game.

As opposed to the artwork on your Black Rose pin?

Would you stop all that "making sense" and "logic" stuff? You're scaring the trolls.

Say the new movie is a blockbuster run away hit, fresh and funny, do you think there is a chance pinsiders might wish Stern based the pin on the new cast or still happy it was the old cast?

I believe the final art will be totally different from what has been posted. In any case, nice marketing move - they keep people talking about the product. ^^

Old cast.....cuz they are the originals.

Even if the new movie is good (will probably just be a remake of same damn story see Star Wars) it will never have the cache and nostalgia of the original.

Really only one remake of classic 80s has even been successful, The Karate Kid, and who even gives a toss about that one?

Even though it's both 70's and 80's, CREED was excellent!

Obviously old cast and it will hit the target 35-60 demo, like myself. I'm in unless they manage to F it up.

And why I held off from RZ. But then Alien was a factor as well. And Lawlor.

I think this game is going to be incredibly special and one of Stern's best, from what I've seen. Between the beautiful artwork and a truly unique layout, this is a game that Trudeau, Zombie Yeti, and Stern are rightfully going to be very proud of! For a theme I've always dreamed of seeing become a pin, it's refreshing to see so much care and effort put into it!

I'm gonna be so proud to have this be my first NIB machine!

Don't forget about 21 Jump Street. :p

Playfield pics haven't even been released, how can you say this will be Stern best based on a translight picture?

The translite isn't the only thing that has been making the rounds. Such as the sneak peek over at the bottom of Page 9...

got me one of these. wont be buying new though. ill sit back and buy a huo le next year.

I hope you are right as this will be my first NIB as well

Was a show, not a movie. But good point!

you mean this one

Yep that's the one!

so city skyline, staypuft, green rail for slimer trail guessing but have to watch the movie again is that a board walk ???

wonder if that ramp is this one with the insanity falls style going down the right side instead of the left side.

screen-capture-15_9.39.04_pm.png

why is Jareds account deactivated? He request it or shown the door?

No I believe the tracks are meant to be the tracks from the ghost train scene in GBII.

That ramp doesn't appear to match up with what I've seen. Gonna be a combination of plastic and wireform.

thanks, just saw the ramp in the background of another photo and wondering what it was from and if linked in anyway.

the ramp for GB sounds sweet.

Good question...

maybe he was the leaker with a second account ???

Jared made the decision to deactivate his account on his own.

He deactivated before the GB Leak occurred.

Marcus

The plot thickens ....

This post is from a different thread:

If you look on his profile page it says he voluntarily deactivated. Jared's a good guy.

[Ghostbuster Translite removed by Pinside Staff]

Moderator Note: Permanent ejection has been issued for posting the leaked image. Pinside Staff wants to make it clear that this image is not welcome on Pinside until further notice.

I like what they did with the PKE meter! toy.jpg

One word: ALIEN.

Honestly, I just don't see Zombie Yeti quality in that drawing. The faces are just bad, and they look like they're wearing lipstick.

As a quick first pass to see layout? Maybe.

When you look at his website, there is nothing there that looks anything like this style

http://www.zombieyeti.com/

By "on his own" you mean stern made him after his company statement of " if you don't like it, don't buy it" rant. Is he still on Facebook?

I think the concept is excellent, but I agree, it looks a little weak to me too..

He is. Asking his FB "friends" to remove the GB picture...

Sorry guys........This is Awesome!! I don't get why people don't like it!

6 hours with the photo in the thread again.
Has Pinside given up?

I agree on the translite being pretty awesome!! It is a little more brightly colored than I would prefer but I would gladly have that than a wretched GOT Photobomb type display. Very, Very excited for this pin! This could be be my first Stern!

Not to be a stalker but I looked at your collection and you currently don't have any games. What would this game have that others before it haven't? Is it solely on theme? Just curious.

TaylorVa - You are correct - I own none but am in on The Big Lebowski and an Alien LE. I have the ability to get into pinball now and certain themes just really appeal to me (nostalgia). I grew up a kid in the 80s and loved the Ghostbuster movies (II was just ok) ... they are actually on TV now as I write this I am a huge Bill freaking Murray fan as well. That said, the gameplay has to be there. I played TBL at Chicago and I am still waiting on more Alien deets but am very encouraged by what I heard from Andrew at Pinburgh.

The translite has all the elements you could hope for, but it needs tweeked. No matter how much you like it, you've got to admit the faces look odd. Even Mr Stay Puft looks off. If they clean that up a little bit, it's a home run. I believe this is going to end up being one of Stern's best pins. At the very least a best seller.

That's impossible because Jared commented in the leaked GB thread, so he definently deactivated his account after the thread leak. Nice try though
