Quoted from delt31:

Fast forward to today and my mother and law calls me to say she heard a Beatles pinball game was going to be released soon and how exciting is that? She has absolutely no idea about pinball, never plays them yet somehow this news crossed her radar. She was so impressed how they are releasing five songs and how it's being released with three models etc. It was pretty amazing. She is right in the targeted age group....62.

If you search google news for "Beatles Pinball", it is only mentioned on a couple music sites that nobody has heard of. No other news coverage that I see.

I can only imagine they saw it because you shared or liked it on FB, and it populated over to their feed as something you liked or commented on.

Quoted from DS_Nadine:

I guess I do that now while I wait for Gold Edition pricing.

Distributors got the Gold Edition pricing yesterday. List price 8k. Seems comparable with Batman66. (I guess your waiting for the German price.)

Quoted from JWJr:

given the order in which companies usually build machines, won't distributors waiting for all 3 versions to be made be waiting a long_ time?

Considering its reported that all 3 version are identical besides art, they should be able to switch up production easier.

Quoted from gdonovan:

And that was how many decades ago?
I asked how popular were they now. Today.
As in potential buyers today willing to pony up the cash for a Beatles pin.

McCartneys web site shows past tour dates of 2016-17, where he played multi-nights at arenas in cities in New Zealand, Australia, Europe, Japan, North America and South America. I imagine that fans dropped $500+ for 2 nosebleed tix at those shows. If you're doing multi-nights in arenas, you're mega popular.

I love tribute albums. Check out 'Butchering the Beatles' (a heavy metal tribute). Here is a favorite track sung by John Bush from Anthrax / Armored Saint -

Quoted from TheLaw:

Disk seems like it's always spinning huh?

It appears to start when the ball is plunged and then stops a moment later (before draining).

Quoted from SMI3:

Why is the Beatles always lower than other new sterns? Is it a different kabinet size?

The top of The Beatles cabinet is lower in the back since there are no tall ramps or toys, similar to vintage pins, but not as low.

example of various pins that was posted here:

Quoted from Aussiepinwiz:

Australian dealer sold out a few moths ago and is taking orders for the next production run

Likely a different case since they have wait for enough orders of BKSOR, Beatles, and Munsters combined to fill a container. I'm no mathlete but NIB is 31"x31" and a container is 40'x8' = 45pins

72 is how many unboxed pins can be stuffed in a container standing on end with a row laying on top. The guys that used to reimport them from Europe would talk about containers with 72 pins.
