    - agree with above poster re JJP POTC. Best mini playfield ever, great theme integration as well. (2nd best mini playfield is Shadow)

    Other top mechanics working well with the theme:
    - circus Voltaire ringmaster
    - World Cup soccer goalie
    - dialed in hologram
    - cages coming up in outlanes of TOTAN (makes me think of the captured princess)
    - white water insanity falls ramp from the upper flipper (rarely is a ramp a mechanical toy, but I feel it counts here)
    - Houdini trunk shot
    - AC/DC cannon
    - mist ball on Dracula
    - big Lebowski rug, car, and bowling
    - Bansai run upper playfield
    - cosmic cart racing magnet ramp
    - multiple mechs on champion pub

    Agree that actually Stern POTC has good mechanics with theme integration too.

    And now my vote for worst mechanical theme integration, which I define as an actual attempt at a decent mechanical device but one that has poor theme integration...
