Have just discovered stranger things and watched all three seasons . Love the series and it's so well done . At first I didn't think it would make a good pin , but now it makes total sense . Of course you would want all the video and sound clips and as many songs as possible . I would like to see a StarCourt Upper Playfield and you would have to have a walkie talkie , and the cars play a role you could have a few cars around the Playfield . I like the Christmas lights idea I think that would work well . You good have a machine Mech for the " key " with a laser which points into a gobble hole or a scoop for the " gate " . It would have to be mode-based with your end goal being to kill the monster . Overall I think it would be a great theme for a pin .

Quoted from Goronic:

Yeah, this has quickly shot to the top of the pinball theme hope list

I think a theme like this would really help to get the younger generation interested in Pinball .

Quoted from chuckwurt:

More ideas:
No lower playfield or upper playfield that is the upside down. Use the artwork and lighting instead.
Also have the upside down be somewhere in the game that you can be sent if you get lost or you have to find somebody. Don’t just make it a mode. And when your in the upside down make the software in the game harder. Like no tilt warnings and you only have a certain amount of time to get out or you get stuck there and your ball ends.
I’d like you to be able to choose characters at the start of each ball. So if you pick one kid ball one and get lost in the upside down mode or drain (that’s getting lost too), then that character needs helped being rescued. So ball two you pick a kid that is still available, and you have now rescue the other kids that are currently stuck in the upside down.
Or just have it take you through the seasons as a mode based game with iconic scenes as the multiballs and wizard modes.
So many ways to approach making this into an amazing pinball experience.

I really like the idea of picking your kid and if they get stuck in the upside down world you have to rescue them

Quoted from toyotaboy:

On wonka you don't choose the kid you're going for before launching the ball, you qualify the kid and then you complete that kid by hitting all the lit inserts.
All I gotta say is it better have magnets, lots of strong magnets. They get stronger as eleven develops her skills, then after a battle she gets weak and you have to wait for her to recharge.
I also think that after 3 seasons there are enough enemies to battle now.
Demogorgon
The Vines
Demo-Dogs
Mind Flayer
Spider Monster
Zombie humans/rats

Maybe elevens Powers could be used through a Magna save

Quoted from chuckwurt:

Just finished season 3. God this show is so effing good.

I'm spewing I watched season 3 so quickly but couldn't help it , kept saying to the wife one more , one more , one more . Now have to wait a year to see the next season . Suppose I just go back and watch it from the start again .

If you don't want to see spoilers the last place I would be is on a thread that is talking about the topic you are trying to avoid

Quoted from Pauz21:

The upside down should be a lower play field that isn't visible. Then when the ball goes to the lower play field that portion of the playfield flips over to reveal the upside down. Have no idea how you'd do that but I want it.

What about if it has a lower Playfield like the munsters with a mirrored or tinted surface and when the ball goes down into it , the main Playfield goes dark and the lower Playfield lights up showing the upside down world .

Quoted from toyotaboy:

I don't think there's any ***spoilers*** in this (no more than say a trailer for stranger things), but had to share this

How cool was that someone put a lot of time and effort into that and it was well worth it . The only sad bit is I'm old enough to know the original show its from

Quoted from pinmister:

Having thoughts about how this table could be done. It would need to have two full size playfields, one for the underworld with reverse pitch and mirrors and one for Hawkins City. Both with full size flippers and full size balls. A large plexi window in center will have shutters that open to reveal the underside. Lots of magnets throwing the balls randomly, with random based modes to defeat the demogorgan and close the portal. I am sure Netflix would be great to work with in terms of full access to all footage, etc. We need a pinball manufacturer to step up to the plate on this one-it needs two levels done right.

I still think a two-way mirror to the lower Playfield which lights up when you're down there , to a playfield like The Munsters .
