Quoted from J85M:Dredd should be a cheap licence but would make an awesome R rated pin, come on Spooky!

Quoted from Calfdemon:Every time I read the mention of "Killer artwork", it just leads me back to Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

This could be awesome!
But it’s obviously this........

And this one! Ha ha

Road Warrior would a good fit for Spooky, given the darkness they gave RZ.
Agree 100%, let’s stop with the absurd titles now people.
You’re right this would be a good fit for Spooky, Fingers crossed!

I second this.
Number 1 dream theme for me.
Quoted from Calfdemon:Toad Warrior?!? Well, I raise you Frogtown with Rowdy Roddy Piper![quoted image]
I’m all out of amphibian movies!
Can I re raise with a bird movie? Haha
E3B0A695-B825-434C-8901-381A63615CDD (resized).jpegQuoted from chad:.[quoted image]
Boobs in the first second? Gobble, gobble?
Is this a Horror B-Movie or a Porno?
Quoted from Calfdemon:I am actually loving this thread!! Doing searches of these movies revealed that the Toad Warrior movie you posted is actually movie #3 in the Frogtown trilogy which I did not know was a trilogy!! I posted Hell comes to Frogtown not knowing. Now I have to find Return to Frogtown and finally watch Toad Warrior which has Jill Kelly in it (not that I know who THAT is.. ).
This thread has me laughing everyday.
I don’t know what’s more awesome the fact that they made a Frogtown trilogy or that they made 5 Leprechauns!
For me it’s a toss up between Leprechaun in space and Leprechaun in the hood for best title.

Quoted from captainadam_21:They actually only made 2. There is no thankskilling 2. And 1 is much better than the 3rd.
Strange but true, I wonder why they skipped over the second?
There’s a poster for it and everything.
It was set in space could have been crazy awesome!
“In space no one can hear you baste”
I mean come on, best movie tag line ever!
ECE5E1DB-92CE-4E7E-B02F-75973467D123 (resized).jpegQuoted from mackey256:Both wrong they made 8 Leprechaun movies. Don't forget both of these...Leprechaun Returns was actually pretty good.
[quoted image][quoted image]
Eight! You just blew my mind.
You mean to tell me... all this time I’ve been stuck at home bored during lockdown and there’s 8 Leprechaun movies out there in the world Haha

I’d be straight in on Tucker & Dale, the Mrs and me both love that movie.
So many great themes out there for Spooky.
These are just a few that are on our own personal wish list:
1. Little Shop Of Horrors
2. Beetlejuice
3. The Lost Boys
4. Monster Squad
5. Fright Night
6. Evil Dead
7. Big Trouble In Little China
8. Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Quoted from LTG:Vampires by John Carpenter. Now we're talking freaking cool !
LTG : )
I think this would be very cool, I’ve always loved the movie.
Not Carpenters best, but still great! Consider the competition, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China, Escape From New York, Assault on Precinct 13, Halloween.
JC deserves a Pin, Let’s start a petition!

Happy to say that I have just joined the Spooky Fang Club. I’m super excited for their next release.
I think there’s so many great themes for them out there, tons of untapped cult movies and TV shows, I can’t wait to see what it is!
Since Rick & Morty I think the only way is up for them, I haven’t played an R&M yet and it isn’t a theme for me but the game looks great, shots, callouts, light show, theme integration look amazing.
In my opinion the only thing it seems to be lacking is that one big interactive toy.
Imagine If they were to do Little Shop Of Horrors with an animated ball eating Audrey 2 plant, Evil Dead with a rotating chainsaw conveyer belt lock. or Beetlejuice with a 3 ball grave ball lock...Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!
Whatever it is, even if it’s something B movieish like The Blob or Attack Of The 50 Foot Woman, I’m positive it’s going to be a winner. Look how popular Sterns Elvira HOH has been.
Come on Charlie and team, I’m behind you all the way! and if I like the theme I’m in on an early pre order.
Peace and love to all my fanger brothers and sisters out there!
Quoted from sataneatscheese:No way Spooky is doing Scooby-Doo. Back when we were guessing Rick and Morty the internal name was Scott Danesi Haunted House Party, or SDHHP. This turned into the rumor of Scooby-Doo Haunted House Party... which is where I think this is coming from...
I hope you’re right, I think Scooby would be fun but my Great Dane who was called Scooby died 18 months ago and it’d be too upsetting for us to buy a Scooby Doo pin
I’m crossing my fingers for Little Shop Of Horrors or Beetlejuice
Quoted from colonel_caverne:When is it supposed to be announced?
June.
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:That’s a killer looking cabinet. I joined fang club to get early access to order if it’s SD.
I joined the fang club a week ago hoping the new pin was gonna be Little Shop Of Horrors, Beetlejuice or Evil Dead.
If it is Scooby Doo I’m on the fence, it’s not a dream theme for me, but I think Spooky could hit a home run with it and it could be a load of fun.
Does anyone know how it works in the fang club, I know you get early pre order opportunity, but are you still blind buying or do you get to see the game mechanics, flow, art etc?
Quoted from Zablon:When they did r&m there was video of the game only a day or so prior to preorders opening up...it really was a blink and miss it deal. Hoping they do it a bit differently this go around.
Thanks Zablon.
If that’s how it’s done then I‘d better be on red alert! No more blinking for me Haha
Quoted from fnord:I certainly hope it's as great of a success for them as R&M.
Same here.
Even if the next theme is something I’m likely to pass on, I wish them every success. I will continue to support them in the hopes that one day they will land on one of my dream themes.
Kaneda says not Scooby Doo now, he said he’s hearing it’s a horror theme.
I like his podcast but personally I think this time he hasn’t got a Scooby Doo (Clue) what it is, he’s just grabbing at straws!
Fingers crossed for Little Shop Of Horrors, Evil Dead or Beetlejuice.
Quoted from hank527:It’s Big Trouble in Little China. Mark my words
And Ben Heck’s game is Beetlejuice.
Ouch! If this is true it’s gonna be an expensive couple of years for me.
Both must own dream themes in my household.
Quoted from Kkoss24:How does spooky roll out theyre titles ? Meaning if your in the fang club do you know the title and have a couple pictures of the new pin when your in the 2 week window to pre order ?
Good question! Also do any of you know how the payment is done, is it a deposit and then remaining balance when your machine is ready to ship or 100% money up front?
Quoted from bob_e:My TNA was a $1000 deposit, balance due when they were to begin production.
Thanks!
Did they want the balance when they began production of your specific machine or just when then began producing games in general?
I have to move my Hobbit on before I can buy.
Quoted from dnapac:I believe they need full payment when yours hits the line...not before.
Phew! That’s ok then.
Man I hope it’s a theme I like.
Quoted from gliebig:I'd buy both.
Me too.
Quoted from Halfwasted:I will also do this.
And me.
1 week later
Quoted from Beechwood:Didn't anyone else catch the real clues?
It's Beetlejuice, like I have been saying for a year.
What were the real clues? God I hope you’re right!
I’m crossing everything hoping this next release is beetlejuice and not the Ben Heck CGC one that’s coming after.
If it’s Beetlejuice next I’m in straight away without question.
Quoted from Beechwood:Did they say more better, 3 times?
Nice catch! Nice catch! Nice catch!
Quoted from fnord:Halloween w/ Ken Taylor art would be sick[quoted image]
Wow that is gorgeous artwork.
I’d prefer Beetlejuice, Evil Dead/AOD, Little Shop Of Horrors, something with a horror/comedy vibe but Halloween could be cool.
Quoted from Tiki-Ed:Could it be ....
[quoted image]
Hit the two ball captive ball stack “Wolfman’s got nards” Haha
I’d love a Monster squad pin.
I know all the goodies were Lugosi Dracula stuff but I’m not reading too much into that.
Here’s my list of top hopefuls
1. Beetlejuice
2. Big Trouble In Little China
3. Little Shop Of Horrors
4. Evil Dead/AOD/Ash vs Evil Dead
5. Monster Squad
6. The Lost Boys
7. Tucker & Dale vs Evil
8. Cabin In The Woods
9. The Blues Brothers
10. Who Framed Roger Rabbit
11. Fright Night
12. An American Werewolf In London
13. The Thing
14. Halloween
15. Zombieland
16. Slither
I’m sure it’ll end up being something none of us expected and it’ll be fangtastic!
How does it work with Spooky’s theme announcement. Do they announce the theme a couple of weeks before order banks open and drop a little video teaser?
I’m trying to figure out how much time I’ll have to contact a distributor and put my name down if it’s a dream theme.
Quoted from Oaken:For R&M I think whisper was around Dec 1st, trailer announcement was around Dec 6th and sales officially opened on Dec 16 or thereabouts.
That’s great! Thanks for the reply.
Just crossing my fingers now for a winning theme.
Quoted from Pin_Fandango:I dont know any of those shows...
I’m glad I’m not the only one, I thought I was just old and out of touch Haha
Quoted from PinMonk:I'd take a Spooky Goonies over a Beetlejuice any day.
[quoted image]
[quoted image]
Me too, Goonies is my number one dream theme but I thought Deeproot had the license?
Quoted from PinMonk:No idea if they still have it. If we're lucky there was a time limit and they lost it.
I bloody hope so, Spooky or JJP are the only two that I think would even attempt to do it justice.
Quoted from benheck:Ah so the game is "stacked" huh? I can see why he'd give that as a clue
You’ve let the cat out of the bag now Ben!
Thanks for the confirmation it’s clearly this Haha
C1F4575E-5EF8-4F7E-8B91-2042D28C7290 (resized).jpegQuoted from mpdpvdpin:Goonies confirmed!
Haha belly laughs over here. I want Chunk and the gang to have their own pinball. Fingers crossed one day...”Goonies Never Say Die”
Quoted from NC_Pin:Goonies has broad appeal. It is like “Princess Bride” almost every kid has seen by the time they are 13.
I think lots of people have a connection to Goonies from their childhood. Growing up I watched that film loads and I still watch it once a year now. It’s a No1 dream theme for me and I think a lot of people.
Different people make different connections to different things growing up. Lots of people love Back to the future, for me it’s just Meh! I never was really into it growing up and would gravitate towards Goonies, Bit Trouble In Little China, Beetlejuice, Monster Squad, Little Shop Of Horrors, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Batman, Dick Tracy.
Goonies to me seems like a no brainier, it’s the perfect theme for pinball, pirates, booby traps, hilarious call outs, great 80’s soundtrack. I LIVE IN HOPE!
Quoted from guitarded:Goonies made an impact? On whom?
I can't imagine anyone (but Deeproot?) thinking that was a viable Pinball Theme. I don't know that it would outsell Food Truck.
On whom? You’re joking right?
How about half of the 80’s!
That movie is beloved by practically everyone I know and grew up with.
It’s a cult classic!
Quoted from guitarded:I was in the age group you talk about when that movie was released. Shit, I sat through it in a theatre for a friend's 14th BDay party, maybe?
I don't know a single person who has ever mentioned it again, since.
Hell. Adventures in Babysitting gets mentioned and not the Goonies.
I just don't see it as a viable option at all.
I was born in 81 so I was only 4 when it came out, too young to watch it at the cinema but wore the VHS tape out growing up. My Mrs and friends most of them born in 80/81 same thing!
Maybe the sweet spot is born in the 80’s, if you were born in the 70’s and a teenager at the time of its release maybe you’d outgrown it already at that point.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:I’ve kind of been hoping that Stern would do The Simpsons: treehouse of horror as a TSPP vault. But I would pumped if Spooky did it instead, PERFECT PERFECT THEME.
[quoted image]
This is a great shout!
Great theme for Spooky and a definite home run. Possibilities are endless as far as Toys, Callouts, clips, light show go.
I’d be in on one for sure.
Let’s bury this one and talk pinball chaps.
What theme do you want the most?
And what toy/mech would you like to see in it?
Open to all, I’m interested to hear everyone’s ideas and possibly steal them if I ever win the Lotto and start up my own boutique company like Spooky Haha
If it’s Goonies, Beetlejuice, Big Trouble In Little China or Evil Dead, 1000 isn’t going to be nowhere near enough.
I think the demand would be high enough to sell 3x that.
I know Kaneda says 1000 but it’s just based on rumour not fact. Fact is they could have sold 3 or 4x the 750 RM they made.
I’m hopeful that with their new factory and line, they’ll be upping the production on this next game to at least 1500, twice that of RM.
Quoted from Capn12:People want Beetlejuice, but people don't want Stern Beetlejuice, so there is that...
You beat me too it. It’s a dream theme for me but a guaranteed missed opportunity in sterns hands.
It’s the perfect theme for Spooky who would give it the love and magic it deserves.
Quoted from awassig:OMG Kill me now!!!! Spooky starts doing stuff like this it will be a major disappointment. Stay with the Horror and spooky themes.
Agreed, Scooby Doo is one thing but Duck Tales? No thanks!
Spooky definitely smashed it with R&M, if outside the box, young themes are the secret formula, how about these?

But I'm on the edge of my seat.

Oh man if it is, then “you know what old Jack Burton says”
6E312EF8-3D10-4D38-9ED9-6A5C975E664C (resized).jpegQuoted from TreyBo69:Idk if it's been said, but Little Shop of Horrors would be fun. Feed balls to a singing and dancing plant monster. Maybe have it rotate to show multiple states as Audrey gets bigger over time.
They are/were remaking the movie before covid.

This would be loads of fun!
Music great, call outs hilarious.
Such a great fit for Spooky. Instant buy for me.
It’s easy to say 750 is the magic number when you was one of the 750. I wonder how many of you would be singing that same tune if you’d missed out.
Fingers crossed I’ll be saying 1000 is the magic number to some poor Pinsider who missed out in a couple of weeks when I’ve got an order in for my dream theme Haha
Quoted from sataneatscheese:Spooky made it easy enough that even I got one. It was and is my only NIB pinball purchase.
Good to know. I’ll make sure I’m not late to the party. I’d hate to miss out if it is one of my dream themes.
Quoted from gonzo73:No announcement yet??....
[quoted image]
0135743C-C7A1-4326-B7A0-DCCF6DC8D797 (resized).jpegQuoted from dnapac:Didn’t Kaneda also say it was Scooby Doo? Also, would he really betray Charlie/Spooky and make the announcement...when it should be Spooky’s thunder?
Exactly, I think he says things to get ratings he’s gotta get people to tune in some how. Also he might have some well placed sources but I think some of them treat him like a bit of a mushroom, they feed him crap and keep him in the dark. I’m not dissing him I like his show and the way he tells it like it is I’m just saying don’t believe everything he feeds us.
I was hoping for something more Horror/Comedy over straight up Horror but Halloween could be great and I’m sure they’ll smash it, not sure if I’ll be going in on it though. More likely I’ll save my money and wait for Spooky to do Beetlejuice, Evil Dead or something of that Ilk.
Nevertheless if it is then good luck Spooky and all the best hope you sell out day 1 again.
Quoted from thirdedition:If it is Little Shop of Horrors I may be in trouble.
Same here Haha
Quoted from thirdedition:Yeah, my better half loves the musical.
She’s not the only one. Little Shop, Bugsy Malone and Blues Brothers are the only three musicals that would be instant buys for us.
Honestly I know Rocky Horror is universally loved but neither of us can stand it.
Quoted from benheck:I will say this, it's not God damn f'ing Beetlejuice.
This isn't a misdirection. IT IS NOT BEETLEJUICE.
Kind of like Munsters I wish somebody would just freaking make Beetlejuice already so it can not sell many copies and people will finally stop asking for it (kind of like Munsters)
Well you know what they say about opinions Ben, they’re like A-holes, everyone’s got one!
I tell you this though, It would sell a crap load more than Duck Tales would.
Quoted from benheck:Army of Darkness would be a killer pin.
Double barrel ball launcher. A spiked pit lower PF (or basement if doing trilogy) Lock balls on the 3 books in the graveyard. Topper of the steam punk Oldsmobile with the spinning blades.
Have a gag where the mech hand "crushes" the ball for the lock. Skeletons everywhere! A working windmill!
I WANT ONE!
Quoted from PinMonk:The rheumatoid arthritis dictated the title. It just wasn't talked about a lot back then. She suffered in silence.
I heard her real name was She-Man but unfortunately we weren’t as enlightened in the 80’s so she changed her name to She-Ra and did the old tuck and tape!
Quoted from digitaldocc:Army of Darkness fans know what Ash would call her.
Sheb***h! Haha
Quoted from mrclean:JAWS originally came out on June 20th .... That would be a nice summer release from Spooky! Since they are releasing in June.. to ship 4th of July Weekend Amity beaches are open!
[quoted image]
Army of Darkness and Evil Dead 2 we’re both released in June too.
Quoted from Beechwood:Best selling Pin of all time... took place in a house!
Touché
Quoted from kermit24:It would also try to convince everyone Bible Adventures and Duck Tales would be amazing.
They would be amazing!.....Amazingly crap!
Quoted from chad:I think the next pin will have sufficient roots.
Oh it’s gonna have roots alright. Big scary roots!
456C581A-AA35-430D-825A-0754517BC7CB (resized).jpegQuoted from finnflash:I like the roots from Evil Dead better.
Different kind of scary root. Those are more horny/rapey roots.
Quoted from benheck:I will say, 100%, no mis-direction that it IS NOT SCOOBY-DOO
Would make a great pin theme though!
So no Beetlejuice, No Scooby Doo. Gotcha!
My monies on Little Shop Of Horrors or Tucker & Dale vs Evil, both great themes for spooky, comedy horror is the way to go.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:‘Return of the living dead’ would be incredible. Awesome sound track, great cast w/ great callouts, just enough camp to keep it fun and creepy enough for true horror fans. That’s a winner in my book. That and ‘Army of Darkness’ of coarse! ‘Night of the demons’ would be perfect too. But it’s a lesser known classic unfortunately.
[quoted image]
Have to have Trash getting her kit off in the graveyard mode, each shot and she loses another item of clothing! Shwing!!!
3B820EE3-F547-4262-99FD-3E5E6D9455F6 (resized).jpegQuoted from TreyBo69:I’d love to see something like the Elvis upper playfield, but as a train station
Shoot a turnstile spinner to go up the ramp to the station, use an upper flipper to shoot into a train door opening and closing. Load up the gang and it dispenses balls, maybe like the Ghostbusters ramp that dips under the playfield.
A train map could show the progress with branching difficulty paths.
Pop bumpers could be sculpted like 3 glass bottles “Warriors come out to play” Haha
Also gotta have the Coney Island Ferris wheel in there too.
Quoted from transprtr4u:the TV series Supernatural would have made for a great pinball theme!
nice to play to Carry on my Wayward son
The Mrs would lose her shit, she loves supernatural. We’d definitely be getting one!
Quoted from PinMonk:Crazy part is, if Stern hasn't thought of it already and Spooky really isn't doing SD next, reskinning Elvira as Scooby Doo is an easy fit and would sell way better than Elvira. The work is already mostly done. Nordman's design is solid and sir_tankalot delivered a great game, as usual. Throw on 3 art packages, reskin the code and viola! new, very in-demand game.
Could be one of Stern's top sellers.
I can see stern doing exactly this but with Harry Potter, the license would be an expensive one to acquire so would be a cost save to re-skin Elvira. The haunted house is perfect for Hogwarts, dead head crypt = Chamber of Secrets. Give it the old KA-POW re-do like Dark Knight/BM66.
It would be a massive hit for them.
Quoted from mrclean:It's "E3" which includes Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, & Army of Darkness... & Since the new film is out soon it's likely to be called:
"Evil Dead Rise Again" or something along those lines.... Interested to see how many zombies this is stacked and loaded with.
I can see the back glass looking something like this:[quoted image]
Please be true.
3rd of June and zilch, you’re killing me Spooky.
Well I just read the manual they provide... it's long I'd consider it a book! [quoted image]
</blockquote
Bound in human flesh & inked in blood, NICE!
Quoted from mrclean:Well I just read the manual they provide... it's long I'd consider it a book! [quoted image]
Bound in human flesh and inked in blood.
Quoted from Beechwood:Don't get them wet multiball... one ball goes in the fountain and 5 pop out
This would awesome!
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:No wayyyyyyy, even with expansion I don’t think Soooky is ready to run two new games at the same time. BUT...I’d be extremely impressed if that were true.
He says that following the expansion Spooky has two lines that will allow them to build two titles simultaneously.
If this turns out to be true then WOW!
Quoted from Wildbill327:Spinner mode...rip enough spins to send the old lady out the window.
[quoted image]
Spinner mode level 2... rip enough spins to send Santa Gremlin flying from ceiling fan.
2B5B5723-018F-4809-A09F-95E08647F2B4 (resized).jpegQuoted from benheck:It would be a nightmare. The dagger and the book even require a special license from Rob Talpert.
Easiest one to do would be 2, but... Eh. You're limited to just a house and the woods and nobody even gets assaulted by a tree in that one.
AoD is my vote. Best one liners, many locations (helps rules) and the most visually interesting. Also skeletons.
Obviously ED is not their next title but you've certainly gotten their attention.
Ben Heck just blew away all our hopes and dreams with a Boomstick! RIP Evil Dead.
Quoted from Zablon:So apparently it is He-Man.
If not that..
medieval madness tri-make.
I’m dying to give my money to Spooky but He-Man...forget about it.
The only thing I’d want sitting in my game room less would be Fast & Furious.
Quoted from benheck:Yeah but you have to connect the monsters somehow. Like, I dunno, having them in a band
If only there was some kind of monster squad to tie it all together, wait a minute......
I mean come on, it’s literally Goonies taking on all the Universal Monsters.
96322B9F-A862-4C17-8025-D53D89E1FC8D (resized).jpegQuoted from Zablon:I dont think he nixed he-man
Can I nix it?
Really terrible theme, was cool when I was 8 though!
Quoted from Zablon:I think if they do another cartoon theme it needs to be current.....
It's going to be Solar Opposites.
Agreed, can’t think of many though?
For me personally maybe Archer or Simpson’s Treehouse of Horrors, I think someone mentioned that on here already and I thought it would be a great idea, perfect for Spooky.
Never heard of Mr Pickles but I’m 40 this year and probably a bit out of touch! Haha
Quoted from johnnyutah:Good news! He-Man is current!
[quoted image]
So are these guys but I don’t want a pinball based on them Haha.
4411BC40-5AF1-4D12-AE29-1B5469E5FF6C (resized).jpegQuoted from mrclean:Little Shop of Horrors would be awesome ...
[quoted image]
Take my money now!
Such a perfect fit for Spooky, instant buy for my household.
Soundtrack brilliant, callouts from Audrey 2 and the Dentist would be hilarious, toys & art possibilities endless...No brainer!
I could see it having a ball eating plant centrepiece, open mouth with teeth drop targets for Dentist mode, and Mushnik’s flower shop up in the corner, green powder coated rails to make them look like plant tentacles.
It would be one sexy “green mean mother from outta space” Haha
Thinking outside the box here a little but
Charlie mentioned Svengoolie the 1970’s horror movie host when talking about the Bela Lugosi stand up in the spooky fang club give away pack.
Stern just had a big hit with Elvira the 1980’s horror movie host.
How about 2018 horror movie host Joe Bob Briggs and the last drive-In?
Stacked and loaded, well it would be loaded with horror movies.
1. Phantasm
2. Hellraiser

“You may be a king or a little street sweeper, but sooner or later you dance with the reaper”
Quoted from TreyBo69:Also while we’re just listing themes for the boredom of it
I recently binged the Harley Quinn cartoon and the whole time watching it I though it would be a great theme. Very funny adult show, good art direction, exceptional voice cast, could translate well to a game, lots of obscure DC jokes for comic book nerds, and checks a lot of boxes in representation that pins don’t normal do (female leads, its super feminist, and has had GLAAD nominations).
Make the pin or don’t, but if you have HBO Max I highly suggest giving the show a go.
Maybe I just want to hear Ron Funches do call outs for a game.
I’m on it!
Been meaning to give it a watch, Batman the original animated series is one of my all time favourites.
Quoted from mpdpvdpin:I think you guys misunderstand me. I LOVE the hornyposts. I collect them like Pokémon. Finding evidence of oddly horny dudes where you least expect it is one of my many joys. Keep em comin!
Here’s another one for your Pokémon collection...
547652B9-A560-407D-ADBB-658593E6BE40 (resized).jpegQuoted from mpdpvdpin:Do you guys have boomers hornyposting in
Essex? Stateside hornyposts typically will involve saying something quasi embarrassing, unnecessarily horny and often displays some kind of odd sexual immaturity. For example, if you had included saying something like “This movie is chock full of yummy boobies, juggies are for daddy as well as baby” then...I would totally screenshot it. Otherwise it’s just a theme suggestion. Give it a shot!
Ok here goes...
For everyone who appreciates the student body, this movie is a monkey spanking good time!
Watch as the psycho killer stalks and impales sexy cheerleaders with his 10 inches of steel.
All he wants is head...doesn’t matter if it’s decapitated.
Packed with juggies for hours of tuggies, get ready to sling some yogurt!
What’s the verdict?
I had to dial up the horny to 100 but wasn’t bad for a first attempt I thought Haha
BOOM!
I’ve joined the ranks of the horny army.
I couldn’t have done it without you guys encouragement and support, you all believed in me.
Quoted from jellikit:It seems only logical, go back 60+ years like TZ and you have...
[quoted image]
Ooh this could be very cool.
I was thinking maybe Outer Limits but this would be a better fit.
Quoted from mrclean:About as dead as my “LE” series 1 Monster in my pocket !
[quoted image]
Monster in my pocket, that takes me back.
I loved them as a kid had loads of them.
Garbage Pail Kids Pin anyone?

Wasn’t it in Ed Wood the Tim Burton movie as well?
Quoted from Txcoastal1:Taco Bell can be as action packed as Die Hard etc[quoted image]

So long as it doesn't have clowns I'm interested.
CROM!
Quoted from hank527:I’m betting
Freddy now
AOD 4 months.
If you’re right on this then I’m going to have to hold out for 4 months.
I really like the idea of a Freddy machine but an Ash pin is a must own dream theme for me.
Quoted from c508:House II: The Second Story was so much better than House I...
I should re-watch this weekend!
2 is my favourite too.
Quoted from jellikit:[quoted image]
Dam it! You had my hopes up for a second.
I want BTILC so bad, If only this was real.
Quoted from Beechwood:How about another pic leak, Spooky! Good PR move and will send everyone in a tizzy!
When Pinside hits 88 MPH, you're gonna see some serious shit!
Another pic leak would be great!
Really can’t handle another debate on, is it tyre tracks or a stone castle wall.
Quoted from mrclean:Two movies that came out on June 25th (rumored Spooky reveal day)
Blade Runner June 25th 1982
The Thing June 25th 1982[quoted image][quoted image]
Either of these 100% gets my money.
Quoted from proco:Well ok, here you go.
Notes and observations:
- I only put the upper playfield in the cut out area where I can see it, but to make sense it should go all the way to the right side and top right corner.
- On every major shot, there seeesm to be a small round insert, some arrow and then this weird cross insert.
- There seems to be an above-surface opto on the right behind the drop target.
- The only thing that makes sense for me on the center shot is a ramp, because otherwise the ball would have nowhere to go.
- The lights in front of the center drop target bank looks like a face ( o_o )
The placement of most posts and metal guides is just speculation because there aren't any visible holes. Also I didn't bother with applying the correct textures to all the components.
[quoted image]
HOLY CRAP! I think it is actually A Nightmare On Elm Street.
I’m thinking the five long inserts could correspond to the first 5 A Nightmare On Elm Street Movies part 1 to 5.
They are the only ones named ANOES after that it’s Freddy’s Dead the final Nightmare, Wes Craven’s A New Nightmare, Freddy Vs Jason and the 2010 remake.
Looks like you work your way up through the movies part 1 to 5.
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:Not a chance. Your premise can work with any movie that has sequels. Be prepared to be disappointed. The teaser art work is clearly NOT a Nightmare On Elm Street.
I’m not even a big ANOES fan, certainly not a dream theme for me but I think it could be kinda cool.
I’m impressed how you can rule things out with such certainty based on an ultra zoomed in picture of...let’s face facts, god knows what, Bravo Sir!
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:It’s not. Why has everyone forgotten the teaser cabinet art pic? Many of you have the memory of a goldfish.
You mean the teaser cabinet art that confirmed nothing and gave absolutely nothing away? Could have been a close up of Charlie’s big toe for all it was worth!
You keep mentioning it and saying it’s clearly not this and it’s not that, like you know... Come on then Sherlock what did you see in that picture that we’re all forgetting?
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:Not a chance it’s NoES. Your reaching big time.
Not a chance you can tell what it is or isn’t just from this...

I’m 100% tire-d of waiting Haha
Just reveal it already!
Quoted from Insanity199:I watched enough CSI to know that we just have to say "enhance that" and it will be clear as day.
FB51B47E-BEDB-4656-986E-55928CEB242A (resized).jpegQuoted from PunkPin:Maybe not even the cabinet. Might be part of the playfield art
Or backglass
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:I can definitely say it’s not NoES.
Is it just because you don’t want Kaneda to be right? Haha.
Well here’s my magnificent seven...
1) Big Trouble In Little China
2) Evil Dead
3) Little Shop Of Horrors
4) Lost Boys
5) Beetlejuice
6) The Thing
7) Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Go ahead Spooky, make my day!
Quoted from benheck:Oh it certainly is a theme. It just isn't Beetlejuice or Scooby-Doo.
Also, ya'll are getting CRAZY!
A Red Dwarf Pin, I’m in! Love that show.
Michael Myers is a creepy and very chilling baddie no doubt but he doesn’t talk, neither does Jason.
Freddy, Chucky, Pennywise they’re scary and funny, cheesy one liners and callouts galore!
Quoted from Lethal_Inc:If it’s gonna be a horror flick I’d be down for The Thing. Could be epic.
Totally Epic! The atmosphere and sense of paranoia and isolation in that movie are incredible.
Could you imagine the Petrie dish scene playing out on a pinball playfield? Hitting different shots as Mac buries the hot needle into blood samples until you get to Palmer and the blood jumps up and screeches and Palmer starts to shake whilst the others all crap their shorts in terror.
It would be the most tense, scary wtf mode in all of pinball...ever!
The Thing is my all time favourite horror movie, it’s a masterpiece and Charlie being a horror fan must undoubtedly love it as any self respecting fan of horror does.
I’m all in on The Thing, Fingers Crossed!
Quoted from mrclean:It could be a John Carpenter movie after all... It’s mind blowing that “Big Trouble In Little China” came out July 2nd 1986 and will be the 35th anniversary in a few days...Spooky will likely tease it today / tomorrow (only two days included today for June) & lines up with Spooky’s video game play announcement for this upcoming Friday.
[quoted image]
Take my money now!
Kaneda said Halloween or A Nightmare On Elm Street. I bet we get both, Kaneda does it again, two for two!
Quoted from SpookyLuke:But wait what if this game has 2 themes? Other theme could be dropped any time I bet...
