Quoted from Yoko2una:Some numbers:
24hrs after R&M announcement, just the announcement thread alone - 660 posts.
22hrs after Halloween announcement, combining this poll thread with the announcement thread - 175 posts.
Zero connection to the theme at all for me, and others with whom I've discussed. Even if the PF is packed, I'm not getting a slasher pin in a house with kids. More power to you if this is a dream theme, congrats even! But I can't personally believe Halloween alone is going to be a major seller. The activity alone shows this isn't generating the buzz R&M did. There must be another title/re-skin in the works, or they maybe know this is a short production run pin to bridge to the next.
With pinball demand the way it is now...who knows. I also wouldn't buy it as I have kids and it's not something I want them to see, but I wouldn't be surprised if it sold well. There's so much FOMO these days there's probably a bunch of people who order everything and worry about whether they want it later.
