    I totally get the SS and early game suggestions. For me, the glaring current game is GOTG. I loved the movies, and think I like them less now because I think the pin sucks, especially from theme integration.

    Rules - Just another Lonnie "Shoot colored shots because POINTS" rule set with movie clips playing and minimal thought into why these shots required represent these characters.

    Orb MB - Why is this a MB besides the lazy "well, a pinball is round, and an orb is round, and it's part of the movie and we have to name 2 multiballs after parts of the movie" response. The Orb is a single orb, not multiple. That toy should've been in the shooter lane and the ball fires out of it to suggest you're flipping around the orb. The name and concept behind "Orb Multiball" is shoehorning at its laziest.

    Groot MB - I get the appeal of the Groot toy, but "Groot Multiball" by name is more of the same. The MB that should've been there would be "Prison Escape" with each lock leading up to it being one of the Guardians coming into the prison room, not just Groot leaning sideways each time, and then the fight scene that ensues with Groot going ballistic would be when the MB starts.
