Initial development had the hot wheels capsule car behind the captive ball sort of like bumblebee in transformers. The car just didn't hold up well with bashing. Then it was considered to be like bart simpson and sit above the plastic and move when the captive ball was hit but this got cut for whatever reason, too.

And that's exactly what it was developed for. Nic came to me [and ngoett] to develop this game because at the time all he had to sell was Walking dead, Metallica, ACDC, etc. Believe it or not, people with small children don't want those themes in their house. He wanted something easy to repair IE reliable, fairly easy to start multiball, but hard enough to keep interest.

at the same time, I wanted to make the rules interesting enough to not be a vacation America or "the pin" [not counting the new spidey - I think it's on par with what we have here playwise] and be interesting for real pinball players. That wasn't an easy thing to balance.

Good logic. People are free to express their opinions, but I'm curious why people who came here, saw the photos, belittled it and gave their opinion, must keep coming back to pile on. I guess that's just what some on pinside do. I can name 5 people that used to be contributing members here that next to never come on pinside anymore. Only use it as a reference. It really is becoming as bad as RGP.

I wasn't interested in Dialed In. I commented in the thread about my likes and dislikes and guess what? I've never been in the thread again. So buy it - don't buy it, whatever. As its been said 100 times already, the game wasn't meant or designed for pinsiders. Was it announced here by TPC? Nope - it was announced on the companies Facebook page.

On the videos I've seen, the Elroy shot isn't this wild. Perhaps there's some tweaking that needs done.

that shot in flinstones has a plastic teardrop in the middle of the loop to act as an inner ball guide. maybe this needs one.

spot on dgarrett.

Fawzma and I have been working hard on code [well he has] over the last 2 weeks and it's getting there.

Here's a gameplay video in it's current state as of 7/23/2017.
A few more changes and tweaks coming but thought I'd share.

100 production games made. 1 sent to Hanna-Barbara for approval that they keep and 1 development machine at Spooky and no more will be made.
Yes, the game is sorely lacking in the callout department. Custom voice callouts are in the neighborhood of $3k for EACH character and they won't allow voice imposters like Stern uses. They also will not allow ripped speech from episodes to be included in the game. Again - license restrictions hurt a final product. Last I heard from the boss man, he will pay for 1 character to act as a narrator similar to walking dead for the jackpot, , super jackpot, shoot here and here, and other similar callouts. I do not have a timeframe for when this might happen though. Out of my hands.

1 went to Japan and 6 went to somewhere in eastern Europe not too long ago.

I don't disagree with you in the least. Initially, when we developed it, the target price was $4500MSRP. But as the license renewels came and cost of parts and production along with the limited run, the cost went up higher than we wanted.

I agree. It's between Rudi or Rosie. I would lean towards Rudi, myself. Be great to have rudy, George and spacely. If my powerball numbers some up, i'll pay to have all the characters in it!

I think it's simple, but hard at the same time. And it's quite fun to reach EEP-OPP. A wizard mode that's attainable but not every time [damn Orbitty and Elroy].
The rules are pretty complete I think. Love when you qualify to start Spacey vs. Cogswell, that the faster you start the mode, the higher your jackpots will be. When playing competitively it's imperative to get the jackpot as high as possible and MAKE the shots.
I enjoy it but I co-designed it so I'm pretty biased. lol
Callouts would finish the machine off nicely and I REALLY hope they get done soon.
