They aren’t selling just yet right??? Damn I really wanna get a spot for this.

Just wanted to point out one thing that I'm super impressed with is the trailer. I mean the voice acting and content (funny even in just 24 second clip) and hopefully will be well incorporated in the game and during the gameplay. A lot of time we hear a voice actor like in ST which just feels like reading a few pages of catch phrases like "Extra Ball" or "I'm a doctor not a pinball Wizard" all cool but if if the voce actors from RM can bring more to the machine almost like a mini adventure/episode while you are playing that would be really great.

I guess I'm getting too old but I can't see buying something without trying it out first or seeing it in person but this theme has me very interested because my kids got me to watch this show a while back and it's a game they can relate to for once. I've never bought a NIB pin let alone one I've never played... heck I can't even buy shoes without going to the store and trying them on first (even if they look like the best shoe ever made).

I actually bought a few games without playing (Tron and XMLE) and I didn't love XMLE but do love Tron and still own it all these years later. Even XMLE tho I sold it and lost money, still had it for like 3-4 years and lost like $1500 on XMLE but still money well spent anyway.

Ya I just look at it like even in the 5-10% chance I end up hating it, won't be tough to get your money back on this thing.

They would have to had been asleep at the wheel to stuff this up. I reckon they’ve thrown everything at it, even the kitchen sink!

I guess I'm too young to worry about little shit like how many coils or did they put Rick on the right side when he should be on the left side, or even if the gap between the flippers is 1 millimeter wider than the last game.

Even with what has been revealed so far, I already love the game. Glad I'm not old and set in my ways.

Need some type of game action before I decide. Hell even stern gives us that much.

Is there anyway to find out your spot before you decide. No way I’d make it 18 months. I think people who already purchased a spooky game should be given priority too. I only have tna but the people who purchased amh and acnc should be ahead of me. Don’t forget you helped get you to Rick and morty!

I believe SpookyLuke said in an earlier post this would happen.

I started to lay the groundwork for this pin by telling my wife about R&M etc. so she won’t be surprised when I put a deposit down. She said something like you’re getting *another* pin?

Rick and Morty are just Justin’s normal voice. He tried to do “other voices” for Trover Saves The Universe and it sounds like more R&M

I waited 3 years for my Tesla model 3, but yeah, I’m not waiting that long for a pinball machine. I just changed my MM order to JP2 because I got tired of waiting among some other reasons.

I bought my Toyota and drove it away the same day. I don't wait on mass produced cars. I am however willing to wait my turn for Rick and Morty.

How’s everybody doing tonight? Joe or someone from the Benton team should have just done a beer drinking stream to chat and bs about this thing.

Anyone know if the Lemmy house charges credit card fees on the games?

It would be funny if they did . They should randomly open sales at 2 a.m. that way the most die-hard fans would get theirs first .

My wife and I are on different work schedule right now. Just told me today(Saturday) she joined the Fang Club too. So I'm guessing one of us will have an eye open at all time. Not sure what will happen if we both make a purchase. I'm guessing it will be 2X

The people I have consulted say get it. That includes the one that someday might inherit it.

Has anyone who joined the fang club gotten an email from spooky about anything? Joined 5 days ago.

Nope. Hang in there, we are all in the same Fang Club boat.

I feel the same way and this is the mature way to go about it IMO.

Super excited about the theme but I'm not joining any clubs or signing up for anything before I at least see the gameplay.

Charlie is waiting on Adult Swim artwork approval?

Never said it was...

Mid season Finale is tonight. Guessing there will he news in 24 hours.

If you and all the others asking the same questions over and over would please do the following:

Go to the top of this topic. Click “Show Topic Index” next to “Topic Index (Key Posts)”. This has all the pertinent info from Charlie and Spooky about R&M. Please refer to this area so we dont have the same questions 3 times every day.

Sorry if that seemed harsh. It will really help you enjoy the forum better.

Back to wild speculation:

So the portal in the corner is hit from a ramp (it looks like a pretty big hole, maybe its a power/accuracy shot into the hole over something else) or does a ramp go over it and then there is a diverter to open the ramp path up to dump into the portal? I bet its the ladder since there is a coil back there that we dont know what it is and theres no way theres a fourth flipper in such a weird spot. This isnt a bally....or is it?

This is my thought also. I think that rick and morty has more “dot.com” fans then let’s say nascar or wrestling does. These dot.com guys have more then enough money to purchase a pinball machine. I’m talking about guys that routinely spend +$5k for a new MacBook every 2 years. Guys that buy folding cell phones just Because. Guys that buy Supreme pins but don’t play pinball

The demographics of rick and morty fans and the avg pinball fan are different crowds.

Not harsh at all. It’s just internet mannerisms. Back to wild speculation: someone will post to someone else to say ‘Google it’.

It’s safe to assume that the adventure card modes are pulled from various episodes, perhaps? I agree Pickle Rick seems like a sure thing. I’d vote for a Total Rickall mode, with the parasites, and if you mess up the final shot, Mr Poopy Butthole takes one to the chest.

To however is in charge of reveal, can you announce when it will be revealed such as 12/xx at 8pm.

So it’s not just a random drop where some people don’t know about it because they’re sleeping or at work etc.

Looks like the website supports online ordering. Wonder if they will have a Ticketmaster queueing type of experience:

They don’t know yet I think as they are waiting for approval on artwork. But the game will be revealed before you can order it anyways.

Third button is definitely a magnasave - magnet clearly visible from underside pics.

Pickle Rick mode is a MUST.

on this one you just have to hope there aren’t 776 people in front of you!

With regards to people flipping pins based on speculation, I have not seen anything about limiting an order to 1 machine. I have not bought from Spooky before.

Does anyone know if there will be an order limit?

And @kermit24, thanks for bringing up Ticketmaster, you made me throw up in my mouth.

I was told it is limited to one game as a fang club member. Already tried....

Awesome!

No you didn’t , which is not the point of my post. I highly doubt they would give away a machine that they are only producing 750 of.

The walking dead was not a limited run so they could give one away and no one cares.

I’m saying Spooky should pre-announce when it will be revealed. So that people can be ready to look at it and order.

My point is there was a guy who made Orb for lotR but he would only make a batch of 20 and he’d just put on his web site whenever it was available. So if you weren’t aware it would be sold out before you even know it was on sale.

I’m not saying that Spooky knows when it can be revealed but when they know they could give a pre announcement like Stern does when they have some video drop.

I don’t care about when the reveal is. I’m not concerned about 750 selling out day one. Without some sort of real-playing example I won’t buy on theme alone. That’s a poor planned decision.

They don’t need to pre announce the reveal. There will be days or possibly longer between when the reveal happens vs when you can actually order. So there is plenty of time to digest the reveal before you have to decide if you want to order.

Ok I didn’t know that. I thought as soon as it was revealed it would go live for sale.

No. Per number 8 here from spooky.

I think he's saying Spooky should do that, not that they are.

Unless you know something I don't, that post just says that they will post pictures and open ordering, rather than open ordering before posting pictures. My expectation is sales to go live right after they announce.

I am willing to wager that there are at least 750 RaM fans with more money than patience to wait for a reveal... I am one of them.

This is a mix of love for the theme and FOMO - once RaM fan base gets wind of this, it will be a guaranteed sellout day one.

Hell, the only marketing they need is a single tweet from JR or DH to set the rabid fan base ablaze... hammer home the fact only 750 will be made EVER and you may see Spooky's website crash as if there was a DDOS.

“Last but not least i doubt cartoon network will allow us time to put a whole gameplay stream together but we will get video of the ball rolling through features and show video and call outs as they are obviously a huge part! Full pictures of entire game also.“

So at-least a video and pictures before orders go live.

I would expect orders to go live Tuesday. Emails go out Monday since it’s the mid season break tonight.

They haven't really said how they are going to announce when orders go live yet....I really hope it isn't via an email an hour before....

Additionally, I'm not interested in 'flipping' so I don't plan to order one if I haven't seen pics/gameplay. I only buy games I'm interested in keeping.
