Not sure I would agree with this. During production R&M spots were going for up to $2500 premiums, and even now after the run is over, the average selling price is at least $1000 over NIB price.

Obviously, there's no guarantee that Halloween or Ultraman will do the same thing. That being said, folks always tend to sell their spots for tons of reasons, so if you miss out you can likely pick up a spot later. I'm just saying there's no guarantee it'll be for retail.

I tried Spooky for too long before switching.

Same -- I am neutral at this point. I think it shot pretty well. The right in lane needs to have a ball staged.... falling from the "house" playfield through the "asylum" to the scoop to the lifter was so terribly slow. That has to get sped up.

The animations were actually kind of terrible to me. I was hopeful they were just placeholders and either better animations or more movie assets would be shown instead. That's the part that worries me the most. The one of the hand reaching into the car was super cringe. You basically saw the same 4 screens the entire time. Ugh.

I'm still in for now, as Halloween is an amazing theme and I am a huge horror fan, but who knows if that'll change in the next 6 months while I wait.

I agree with a lot of this statement. While there are some Halloween aspects that I saw that are worrying to me, Luke and others and spoken up and I do believe those things will be resolved in time.

With regards to the music. I think that the way Spooky is using music in HWN so far has been top notch. You want it to be slow and build tension at the beginning. In later modes and parts of the game you want it fast paced, repetitive, and grating (somewhat) to nudge you on and drive you nuts. Reminds me of background music/noise in early Bally/Williams SS games. Mild noise at the beginning that increases tempo and intensity as you get further along. That used to drive me nuts and heighten tension. I think the music of HWN is accomplishing something similar.

Even 20 clips each at 6 seconds is only 2 minutes of film footage.

I’d hope eventually we’ll have a few more clips.
