To be clear though, the backbox is the SAME as my other Spooky games right? Don't have a LOT more room to get it in the door.

Backbox should be exactly the same
Quoted from CoolCatPinball:Backbox should be exactly the same
Put my order in for a Scooby Doo CE.
This is going to be awesome.

Glad you will be around in the forums for SD too RM, you've helped me fix a lot of things over the years.

Quoted from Damonator:I don't think they are going for exclusivity (if they were, they would have a capped CE # - Charlie said he would never do that again after RZ). They are simply making as many as they can in that 18 month window and then moving onto the next title.
More than ok with that but I am surprised there were no caps on the CE to drive initial demand
Let me get this straight, the deposit is not transferable??? Did I hear that right?
What’s the feeling about that and is that legally binding?
I understand that squashes spot sitting for flippers but what about regular Joes that just want to sell their spot for whatever reason?

Me too, and I agree!!
SpookyLuke can we get a pic under the playfield now? Curious to see your new boards and wiring setup

Just read the last 5 or 6 pages. You heard it right. And in general feelings are mixed.

I was under the impression that the deposit isn't transferable to other games. Other people who want to take responsibility for the remainder of payment and accept shipping, I thought was ok. Am I wrong?

you are correct.

Believe that is correct; at least with distributors. I sold my Halloween CE spot to a fellow Pinsider after I was able to get a butter cab used locally/faster. Easily transferred to new buyer.

Depends on the distributor, some may not allow or charge a transfer fee.

3. Initial Payments-CE-$2000, BSE-$1500, SE-$1000 (non-refundable, non-transferable to other games)
Quoted from Yoko2una:I was under the impression that the deposit isn't transferable to other games. Other people who want to take responsibility for the remainder of payment and accept shipping, I thought was ok. Am I wrong?
Yes, almost certainly so they can order the proper number of parts that are unique to the BSE and CE models.
Quoted from JSC:Depends on the distributor, some may not allow or charge a transfer fee.
Agreed; could vary distro to distro.
Quoted from Mdanielb:3. Initial Payments-CE-$2000, BSE-$1500, SE-$1000 (non-refundable, non-transferable to other games)
Yep - was explicit day 1
Quoted from rai:SD > Bond imo.
Quoted from ThePinballCo-op:SD > Bond, no doubt. Not even close either.
Now... back to the resetting / freezing concerns...
Never understood these binary proclamations...especially from someone who has played neither game. Or perhaps you have played a Bond Pro? Too early to tell either way. Everyone should be ecstatic that there are lots of options nowadays (albeit expensive). These kind of comparisons do nothing but make you look foolish.
I'm in..first mod I'm doing, is replacing the windshield of the mystery van, with an lcd screen (and maybe the driver-side window) with animation of them driving, from the original series 
Quoted from JSC:Depends on the distributor, some may not allow or charge a transfer fee.
find a better distributor then.
is it some work on our side to transfer deposit, yes. that being said, by doing so i have made 2 "potenial" customers happy and therefore more likely to do business with me in the future.
Quoted from PanzerKraken:Folks were transferring their preorders for Halloween and UM left and right if gotten from a distro
You can transfer your game to another person direct with spooky as well. You cant transfer your deposit to another game.
Quoted from PanzerKraken:Folks were transferring their preorders for Halloween and UM left and right if gotten from a distro
That what I was saying earlier in the thread. Whether it was not liking the problems discussed on pinside, changed mind or grew impatient, I saw 40-50 ads saying take over my spot and pay balance...so most likely they were unable to cancel or transfer to other games.

It’s transferable to another buyer…not to another game. In other words, you can’t apply it to the next pin, but if you need to sell it/transfer it Spooky has always bent over backwards to help if needed.
Quoted from KING-HENRY:I'm in..first mod I'm doing, is replacing the windshield of the mystery van, with an lcd screen (and maybe the driver-side window) with animation of them driving, from the original series
I'm in on this mod as long as I get to see full game play first before I have to pay a deposit.

Spooky has already said there were lighting behind the charters so you know the number of balls locks.
I see snippets from the feature matrix in the thread photos. Was a full feature matrix posted somewhere? Thanks
Quoted from paul_8788:Have watched the gameplay video a couple times, and share the concern about little to no side to side. There are no outlane drains in that video, maybe because of editing, or maybe they have the outlanes as closed as possible for the video, but if it ends up being too easy it will get boring fast. Maybe it will be discussed in the Q&A tonight.
I think whoever was playing is a pretty good player.
Remember there are players out there who can play a single game of BM66 for over 2 hours...
All games look easy if you have a top player playing them.

found it.

I wanted to do this with R&M bill slot. Put an LCD with animation in there that looked like looking in the battery world and if you shook the game they'd start screaming/yelling/running around freaked out.
Ultimately my dreams always far outshine my abilities 
I think I may have figured out this Fang Club stuff.
I was a Fang member for a while, and yeah you probably get your 50 bucks worth of trinkets. I think mine still have the protective paper on some of them.
I keep thinking why why why.
The club is pure brilliance by Spooky, what a great way to see how many people really want a up coming game, gets people who are a 95% buyer to put some money into a membership and Spooky can have data on how many games will be sold.
No for my just guessing sticking stuff to a wall. I was impressed some game play was posted by Spooky but wondered why did they post up the game play. Oh and always have thought the license excuse was total bull shit cuz companies can just blur out or cut out the non approved license stuff weather it is pictures, likeness, or music. Just like Spooky did for the game play.
My wild silly guess is this, not as many Fang club memberships being sold, how do we hype up Pinside, post some game play, get more Fang members = more sales.
Well spooky did not release as much on Halloween or Ultra because they knew they had the games sold because of all the Fang memberships. Now with Scooby not as many Fang memberships so up the irons give them more.
Super super smart great business by Spooky!
Congrats on the business savy move Spook.

Truth - I watched that video knowing it wasn't SpookyCharlie flipping it.
Speaking of good players - watching Bowen play through all 9 reactors on TNA live at TPF was a trip. I think everyone in the audience crapped their pants when the third ball drained on the final reactor before we knew it was on 5 ball play.
To clarify real quick. "Non-Transferable" means you cannot transfer it to a different or future games. You can still sell your spot to whoever you like.
Quoted from PunkPin:SpookyLuke can we get a pic under the playfield now? Curious to see your new boards and wiring setup
Yeah I can do that now! Let me go take one!
Quoted from Var1AbL3:Glad you will be around in the forums for SD too RM, you've helped me fix a lot of things over the years.
Thanks, man. That makes me feel great.
I like helping people out; I've certainly gotten a lot of help over the years.

Quoted from Zablon:threat broke?
yes, it was for a second, could only access 1st page
Quoted from SpookyBug:We could've done a 4hr power special, had a really great time recording this one!
It would be great to see a playfield shot of the Bloodsucker edition just so we can see how the wireforms look unpainted?
Quoted from Damonator:Truth - I watched that video knowing it wasn't SpookyCharlie flipping it.
Hey... I taught the young man who was flipping it everything he knows. Sadly he started whipping my a** on games big time about 6 years ago. Should have taken all the house games off free play to slow him down.
Quoted from Aurium:It would be great to see a playfield shot of the Bloodsucker edition just so we can see how the wireforms look unpainted?
It should have this powder on the trim and wireforms.
Quoted from ThePinballCo-op:If I buy this new game and the game freezes or resets on day 1, I'm gonna be furious-ish (I don't get mad, so whatever that is, lol).
This is why Alien sucks. It can't function on location due to flawed software. I have both a R&M and HW on location and have had no issues with them. I put a TNA CE out but it lasted less than a month before it broke but it is a bad opto and not a software issues so far.
Quoted from SpookyCharlie:Hey... I taught the young man who was flipping it everything he knows. Sadly he started whipping my a** on games big time about 6 years ago. Should have taken all the house games off free play to slow him down.
Lol - same story here - mine started whipping on me around the same time. At least I can say he took out GG before me.

Yes, this is unfortunate with Alien, although I haven't had any lock ups with it for months. It really does shine in the home environment though.
Quoted from SpookyLuke:Be forgiving of the wiring lol! It's pre production.

I see you added rubber foot-stops to the service rails.
