It looks like an early Christmas for a lot of people!

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Not sure how anybody could interpret this as ambiguous.
The game will feature voice/speech/footage from the show, along with original animations/screen footage by the Stern team.
If there was original speech for the game from the show's actors, it would say that in plain English.

I see from the matrix that it does feature David Harbour, thanks.

Quoted from Tilt:

I'd have to disagree, but stranger things have happened[quoted image]

At first I thought you were Jason Rufer! Congratulations!

Quoted from HighVoltage:

Ha, I enjoyed the observation about all the vans. With the overloading of ST abbreviation, maybe we should do the Stern obtuse-but-related name. Let's see...
"Just picked up a new VAN!", ha...
What was the internal Stern codename for this one anyways?

Goonies was the codename.

Is it allowed to talk dimples without vid1900 around?

Quoted from Rarehero:

They have. You’re being disingenuous and spreading disinformation.
Pinball is fun. One can have fun playing pinball and critique the sub-par quality new machines. Walk & chew gum.

Where the hell is vid1900- we have another dimplegate on our hands

Don't say his name three times...

Quoted from Rarehero:

Why don’t JJP or Spooky playfields crater? They’ve had chipping & pooling issues, which would be more a problem regarding chemical compositions. I think wood softness is the more likely culprit for the deep pits.

I am not an apologist, but a realist. Without a doubt not all playfields wear, dimple, or 'show' the same. At the same time I have seen it from all manufacturers over a long period of time.

Quoted from Rarehero:

You’ll see dimples on any game at the right angle and light. Craters are deep and visible always. There’s something different about them compared to the norm.

Exactly. JJP and CGC remakes show easily like Stern, most B/W DMD do not with few exceptions.

#3727 4 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

It’s a crapshoot!!!
Unfortunately with Stern, it always has been, even in the pre-crater days. Odds are you’d get a playfield with planking, colors were wrong, or the color alignment would be off. I’ve seen soooooo many variations of LOTR playfields. One had a full green Gollum on it!!! Some are rich looking. Some are washed out. Mine has nice colors, but the red alignments seems slightly off, so Frodo looks high lol.[quoted image]

I remember with TSPP looking at the red on Lard Lad Donuts to see how everything lined up with the screening.

Now, who has been logging time on Stranger Things? Any word on when a Premium might be streamed or show up on location?

#3739 4 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

I got a good one. Later run TSPP playfield. No splotch on Homer’s head like most of them. Zero dimples.[quoted image][quoted image]

Nice registration! I remember seeing 10 along side each other, no two were the same.

Finally got a chance to play Stranger Things today.

Thanks, I was wondering.

#7040 4 years ago
Quoted from TheFamilyArcade:

Yes. I’ve seen this picture. I think over a year ago was the first time. This photo gets hauled out and recycled with the same schtick every time the Stern crater haters get too vocal. Yup, one CGC has some orange peel. Oh well. Where are all the other CGC horror stories of bad playfields? Practically every thread on Pinside has some reference to Stern’s horrible cratering problems. New owners with new pictures seem to crop up daily. But you hold on to that one AFMr picture, so you can use it in another argument down the line.

A few pictures I took myself with glass on. The playfield dimpling seems to be all over the board in terms of manufacturers, build dates, etc.
