We have had a few games recently announced/revealed, as well as a ton of rumors on pinside about games about to come out soon, based on the rumors and reveals, how would you rank them relative to your interest. Not sure I caught all of the hot rumors, and some of these might now be a bit cold, and some of you will object to be including recent releases, but here is my ranking on what has me most interested to see/play.

Pulp Fiction
Scooby Doo
Haunted House Party 2 (Danesi P3 game, not sure what it is, but I like his track record)
Bond -- great theme, I'm hoping/assuming the rules eventually get to someplace good
Godfather
Queen -- not impressed so far, constant concert footage that is disconnected from play seems odd, but layout seems decent and I'll hold judgement until they get things to where they want it to be.
Galactic Tank Force
Foo Fighters
Venom
Beetlejuice
Spinal Tap -- would have been much higher on my list if what I have seen so far did not look like crap. Is this ever going into full production?

Elton John
MOTU

Punny Factory

There's a This is Spinal Tap Pinball at Pinball Hall of Fame. Someone compared Thunderbirds favourably to it

Only machine from this list I am interested in (based on what we know now) is Scooby Doo (Collectors Edition) but that barren right hand side has me hesitant.

Your list is incomplete as far as rumors.

PTCR and EFL !

I should add if 2 or 3 of the rumors come true this year. We are in for an exciting year of pinball.

Good guess. Not right. Mentioned by me 14 times on Rec Games Pinball. So far one person has figured it out.

- Very interested in Galactic Tank Force. Love the cheesy scifi theme, trust Franchi to do it up good, and love Nordman's work. Potential purchase for me.
- Really excited to play a Scooby, hope it shoots as good as it looks, probably would've bought one if my Ultraman code was in a better place.
- Can't wait to see what Scott does on the P3, but I've never had a chance to flip one of them.
- If the Pulp Fiction/Mark Ritchie/Josh Sharpe stuff happens, that'll be nuts.

Everything else, I'll play it when I play it. My wife will be very excited if Foo Fighters comes out though.

I played it there a couple weeks ago. It's definitely one of the pinball machines of all time.

I'm excited for Foo Fighters the most. Venom second most. I am curious to see what the tank game from AP is just because I love Dennis Nordman designs. Godfather, jaws, IJ5, and everything else is just a wait and see for me...

I would be interested in Jaws, BTTF and Goonies
Would be interesting to see what other P3 games come out. A hot swapable pinball machine is pretty cool.

I’m just going through tall the acronyms on this list, and these two seem like the most likely

This is the one that should have been made back in the day and I believe would do great.

Beetlejuice

Scooby Doo appears to be well done, but otherwise the rest of those bore me.

What happened to the MOTU rumor? I'd be excited for that or Goonies.

Masters of the Universe is one somewhat-credible rumor you missed, and that would be my personal top one. Castle Grayskull has to be a shot on the playfield with balls going into the jawbridge. On the Premium, there's a shot where an Adam figure rotates out of view to be transformed into He-man. Collect characters at each shot to start their modes, like Monster Bash or X-men. It could even have selectable playable characters like Star Wars and TMNT. And the franchise is active with new series running on Netflix, although it doesn't exactly have the reach of Stranger Things or Mandalorian. [Edit - ha, scooped by the post above me suggesting MOTU]

I've added these to the first post, I'm sure there are other ones missing, hard to keep up with all of the rumors and did try to keep to ones that seemed to have more weight behind them (or at least more chatter).

If someone figures out what Lloyd is referring to with EFL, I'll add it.
