Missed this thread the first time around. I'm bored tonight, and I love cartoons, so...

OP
Quoted from PinballManiac40:
I hope pinball manufactures use this a guide for future releases.

Er, er... Good idea!

Quoted from Strummy:
Ren and Stimpy

In 4th place! I would love for a drain callout to be "Steempy! You fat, bloated eediot!" Another drain: "No sir, I don't like it." Log Multiball! Everyone loves Log!

Quoted from NevadaNutJob:
(Futurama) ...the call outs ! Bender - “ bite my shiny metal balls ! “

First place, with a solid lead, and for a good reason. It's great! “You win again, gravity.”- Zapp Brannigan.

Quoted from Jenniebear:
Pokémon, instant buy for me!!

24 seasons of it should have registered! I would think anyone under 35 would do a double take and check out a Pokemon pin if they walked past.

Quoted from Hammerhead:
Looney Tunes is iconic and deserves a proper pin, not the abomination we have currently

The layout is so godawful that no one would ever bother creating new code, even!
I want a new game, Bugs vs Daffy, featuring Elmer Fudd. Those are my favorite Looney Tunes. Dirty skunk season!

Quoted from crujones4life:
I am the only vote for C. Brown?! Would be my number 1 choice!

Wow, and I say this one all due respect, you must be one mellow dude!

Quoted from nicoy3k:
Bevis & butthead would be cool if it was a music pin

At least partly, like their show! Might be hard to get licensing for music you're going to make fun of, though.
I'd even like one from the spinoff, Daria.

Besides the exclusion of Pokemon, other criminally negligent omissions from more recent decades include

Gravity Falls
Adventure Time (as EdisonArcade pointed out, but didn't name for the old farts)
Steven Universe (well, check back in 10 years)
Bojack Horseman
Bob's Burgers
Big Mouth (which some swear by, I haven't seen myself)
According to popularity lists, a whole slew of anime we old codgers can only shake our heads at

And I'm probably the only person who would still like to see a Duckman pin.

Here's the breakdown of voting currently. I told you I was bored!

Mickey Mouse? Sure, except that he was never actually funny as far as I remember, he is more of a mascot than a beloved character, and his name is now used to mean "lame" or "cheap" or "phoning it in"...

And the license would no doubt be astronomically priced.

Not to mention, MM is sort of already taken.

But yeah, I just bet all the little old ladies who collect Mickey crap would love a pinball machine!

(To be honest, I'd be in on an Uncle Scrooge pin, though!)

The poll leader, Futurama, has now become a no-brainer:

The series is being revived (as in, new episodes) on Hulu!

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/futurama-revived-at-hulu-1235090020/amp/

Someone make Futurama already!

It is so obviously the best cartoon theme waiting to be made. So many possibilities. It would be as funny as Rick and Morty without all the F-bombs.

Futurama has more humor in each episode than everything Scooby put together.

Seems to me that King of the Hill's humor (which I love) is a little too deadpan to squeeze a pin out of, I tell you whut.

Quoted from pindoc1:
You must have missed out on all the original Mickey, Donald, and Goofy cartoons from the 30's and 40's. Much better than all the crap out today. The current Mickey Mouse cartoons look like they were scripted and drawn by the same clowns that did Ren and Stimpey.
The originals from way back when were terrific. You are correct in that Mickey himself was more of the straight man (mouse) for the antics of Donald, Goofy and Pluto.
I also agree that it likely would not make a great pin.

I sure did, and I have always wondered whether any existed and, if so, why they haven't been shown through the ensuing years the way Popeye cartoons were. Despite that, much of my sense of humor is derived from reading Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge comic books, especially the Carl Barks ones. Never cared much for any of the action comics, and still don't care for the derivative movies.

Also, Ren and Stimpy would make a great pin! I loved R&S up until John Kricfalusi, the creator, left (was fired). Genius cannot be rushed.

Quoted from Rarehero:
His pedo ass wasn’t rushed out of the biz fast enough.

Ew, hadn't heard about all that somehow. Wasn’t why he was fired though.

Quoted from Matthew2015:
isn't there already pinballs for Bugs Bunny, jetsons, and Dungeons & Dragons, made already?

True, but none of them realized one iota of the potential those themes possess, to put it mildly.
