Looking forward to the reveal and seeing gameplay for sure. Not interested in buying though because I've never seen the show. I've read enough about the show to know it's not for me....I don't enjoy kid shows at all.

Looks like a really cool game even though I never saw the show. But the kids' heads on each backglass ruins it for me. Just don't want a pin with kids all over the cabinet and backglass.

Kinda surprised so many guys would want this pin in their home. There’s a nearly bald, 12 year old girl with a nosebleed on the translite.

I couldn’t look at that translite in my lineup every day.

Hope you enjoy your new game.

BURN!

At the very least hold a golf umbrella over the game while people play it.

Never saw the show, but I'm going to assume that's the overused, cliched, "mental brain strain from telekinesis powers"? Cheaper to use fake blood than some cool CGI effect to convey the powers.

Back on topic of the game. I think it's cool Stern tried something new by using a projector. However, my opinion is that at this price point, I'm not that interested in a non-physical gimmick which doesn't interact with the ball. LCD screens on the playfield impress me more and work well in all lighting scenarios.

At a 1/4 the price, if I wanted a screen projected on the playfield, ramps, bumpers and have virtual interaction with the ball, I'll play Pin2k.

I recently bought a Star Wars Episode One pin, just because I could. It's popularity here has been a big surprise to me. My wife was shocked she actually really enjoys it (hates the movie) and says it's probably a long term keeper. The other night my 19 year old daughter had friends over to watch movies and I let them have the basement. I heard her male friend exclaim, "Now *that* is really cool. That's wild!", when first seeing the pin.

I don't see the same wow factor with Stranger Things' projector feature.

“What’s he saying, Robin?” - Howard Stern

Was just thinking that. Such a lame, tasteless, low-hanging fruit, unclever, "joke".

Looks like Big Hurt still can claim the best WIDE center ramp in pinball.

Would a buyer be able to force a return of a lemon pin using a credit card that stands by their customers with purchase protection?

If so, that would seem to be how to purchase NIB from Stern at this point.

Here’s an upvote for you.

Seems like this mod should be an easy pass. UV lighting on pins has never really looked all that impressive to me. I owned a Viper Night Drivin' that has the UV/blacklight feature built in. Neat, since it was already included in the game and Viper also had glo-balls which added to the UV effects. But not something I would've paid to add if a kit was available.

A few years ago I made and installed UV "stadium" style lights for one of my Tales From the Crypt games. That playfield artwork is light reactive and I also installed those green glow rubbers. I thought it was cool since I made the light kit myself and never saw anyone else do that on a TFTC before. But ultimately, UV light is not pleasing to my eyes and I don't wanna stare at UV lighting when playing a game.

I also have a set of Pinstadiums with the UV flasher option. Have to keep the UV connectors unplugged because holy shit, the UV flashing would come close to making me queasy or something....just did not give my brain positive feedback.....was weird.

There was a Metallica mod that had UV light rails, except the rails were mounted above the playfield, a few inches out from the side walls. These were out well before Pinstadiums. It was those UV light rails I re-purposed for TFTC and installed mine on the sidewalls, like the original Pinstadiums.

Didn’t know this thread was here. Some good stuff in it.
