I just watched a video of the archer game from 2016, looks awesome! My biggest hope is for it to be anything but a 2 flipper fan layout. Really excited to see what it looks like.

Quoted from Shapeshifter:Getting ready to pay out the $10?
I have been ready to pay for the last 5 years just so everyone can stop talking aboot it and have a machine.
Quoted from mnpinball:Based on a marketing standpoint it would be a huge fail if Stern did not have this game at the Texas pinball show ( One of the largest premier shows in the states) they had a missed opportunity at Expo which couldn't be avoided because of the JT situation. With all the new games coming out and being shown at Texas that's the place to do it.
I would expect to see a Pro or two there to compete with Pirates, Monster Bash, Houdini, Kingpin and Alice Cooper. Stern needs a strong new fresh title.
Texas really is becoming the premier go to show and with all eyes on these new games and new money that's the place to do it !
Up The Irons !
And you'd better have some honey for all your honey-loving Texas friends. Unfortunately I/we won't be able to make it this year, but I know where to find you and Sara.

Quoted from thunderking50:I just wish it would be Lyman on codes.
So, I just heard rumor that Lyman is retiring??
Kaneda podcast.
Hoping, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.......
Quoted from Shapeshifter:So, I just heard rumor that Lyman is retiring??
He is probably retiring after Batman 66 is done. He should have several good years of employment ahead of him.

Retiring or leaving Stern for another job? He's only 51.
Quoted from lordloss:Has the old boys club been passing around insider pics of this machine yet?
Well, they have for Deadpool but not heard anyone who has Iron Maiden yet.
Quoted from Coolpinballdino:How do I find this deadpool image.
Be part of the good 'ole boys club.
Quoted from Coolpinballdino:How do I find this deadpool image.
Be part of the 'club'
I don't have it
Quoted from MikeS:Retiring or leaving Stern for another job? He's only 51.
Can you imagine if he went to Deeproot??
Only heard rumor on Kaneda podcast - doesn't seem to be anywhere else.
Maybe it's because Stern hired 3 new software guys or maybe that's why they did!
Quoted from Shapeshifter:Be part of the 'club'
I don't have it
Mabey if I give this club a free Shaq attack translite they will let me in LOL.

Guess It came true but in circumstances unforeseen by all. Otherwise re: Lyman the dragging out of BM66 code may have delayed his. We will never know.

Wow, seems like there may be some truth in this rumor.
BM66 would be his last game, if it's true.
Great loss for Stern and pinball if true.
Quoted from jgentry:He's just joining everyone else at deeproot
Blech... I'd rather see him retire and keep his excellent reputation in tact.
Quoted from MikeS:Blech... I'd rather see him retire and keep his excellent reputation in tact.
You don't want to see him smacking playfields with a sledge hammer?

Seems like they are assembling a pretty bad ass team, minus jpop
Not sure why everyone is ragging on this company

I like the guys on the design team (minus JPOP) but it's the arrogance and ego of others involved with the Co. that makes me question their potential for success.
Quoted from Shapeshifter:Well, they have for Deadpool but not heard anyone who has Iron Maiden yet.
Well, go on then. PM or post em.

Maybe they were all made an offer they couldn't refuse.

Can't blame anyone for taking a steady paycheck. Well except JPOP, his paycheck should be sent to all the people he screwed.

BM66 would be his last game, if it's true.

Possibly also why you're seeing him clear up TWD and AC/DC before he finishes BM'66. If Met soon too gets its few bugs squashed, introduced in the last release, would certainly make sense.
I can't see Lyman staying away from pinball though, even if he takes a break.
Expect something by Feb 28th for the Amusement Expo International show in Vegas. Announcement of a new title etc...
Quoted from Shapeshifter:And now you are saying Lyman coding this?
Boom!
Better start saving quick
If Iron Maiden is Keith's game Lyman isn't doing the rules, Keith is. From tiltforums...

Starting to get excited about this one.
New designer, 4 flippers, rumored 3 new features, ZY art, Keith rule implemented by Lyman, shipping with 1.0 code.
Going to be hard for this one not to be awesome no matter the theme.

Is it a 100% sure information or speculation? If that's right it's great, the Archer layout is awesome but i see more this layout for Deadpool (if it will be made)

If this all there - should be a winner no matter what theme. Not Crazy about Iron Maiden, many more themes I'd like....
But if all these things are so, the game should be interesting.
I HIGHLY doubt all the Archer features will make it to even the Premium / LE line. The amount of stuff in that game is nuts.
Quoted from Lethal_Inc:I’ll take a Vic Rattlehead and Megadeth theme any day over IM, but that’s me. Iron Maiden used to be my favorite band, when I was in middle school. Really don’t care for their new shit and you can bet the music will have a lot of new shit.
Actually I really dont think so, most of what they do besides making the occational new album is usually based around classic tracks, along with maybe some new. I dont know what you mean with new shit, but Ill assume everything from 2001 and onwards, and from there I would assume...wicker man maybe.

I have wanted this pin to be made for a long time and still do, but my last full album I liked by them was Brave New World. I like everything before that album as well and have the box set. The others after that just don’t do anything for me and boring long draw out. I just hope Bruce who loves to support the new stuff to death does not require 5 or 6 new songs in the game. Last interview I read the new tour these year will be old school stuff which I am looking forward to seeing as pasted on the last two tours. Also wish for them to play a much longer set and over 2 hours on tour, no excuses about their songs being longer, do a set like GNR or Rush, etc.

Everything is speculation until it's released. I'd say these are very high probability rumors though.

If you look at all the previous rock titles from Stern they pretty much stuck with the classics from those bands. I can't see anything being thrown in there from Brave New World on.
JMO
I could see Wicker Man, Speed of Light, Different World and maybe El Dorado or making it.
They are catchy songs and around the 4 minute mark.
I'm good with whatever they put in as I'm a fan of even the Dianno and Bayley albums.
Quoted from Shadrac:Is it a 100% sure information or speculation? If that's right it's great, the Archer layout is awesome but i see more this layout for Deadpool (if it will be made)
Deadpool is 2 flippers. Nothing to do with Archer. Actually DP looks very Gomezish influenced.
Quoted from Shadrac:Hmm you have a picture of the Deadpool layout?
If you have to ask, it wont be shared. Gotta apply to the club
Why bother keeping it to yourself if you're going to talk about it? Also, how is it half the people on pinside can do a better job keeping stern's secrets than stern itself, and why won't anyone just post the leaked photos?
Quoted from Chalkey:Why bother keeping it to yourself if you're going to talk about it? Also, how is it half the people on pinside can do a better job keeping stern's secrets than stern itself, and why won't anyone just post the leaked photos?
Because pinside doesn't want that stuff leaked and neither does stern. Trusted people seeing something in person at the factory is not the same as leaked pictures online. I never understood why people get upset about this anyway. It's not like you can buy it and we will all know soon enough.
