Quoted from aingide:Wow. If it's actually Stranger Things, and they got it in a box and overseas before they've even announced it, that's really impressive.
They did that with Munsters.

Quoted from Goronic:Oh man...No I am stuck between getting Rick and Morty or Stranger Things.
I might be alone on this but I feel Stern has watered down their pins to the point that I don’t want anything they make. Rick and Morty will have more features, better build quality and more assets than a Stern Stranger Things. Let’s see...Stern took JP and turned it into a generic dinosaur game. Some what is ST going to be? A pin about a mall? At this point in time you don’t want Stern making your dream theme.

I dunno. Im in love with deadpool which I own. They certainly dont have as many features as JJP but then again the price point is lower. Really hoping for stranger things.....
Quoted from Extraballz:At this point in time you don’t want Stern making your dream theme.
Maybe. But sometimes the choice is between Stern making it and nobody making it.
My dream TV pin was GoT, dream movie pin was TBL, and dream music pin was Primus. Not a good track record.
I'm 0-3, so I don't frame games in the context of "dream theme" anymore...I'd rather go in cold and just react to what's been built. Never been happier.

Man GOT was awesome, but I'm happy anytime someone gets over the "dream theme" schtik.
Quoted from arcademojo:LOL. Not even close to a boomer.
Kids today can't count beyond Tide Pod.
Quoted from TheLaw:Man GOT was awesome, but I'm happy anytime someone gets over the "dream theme" schtik.
GoT is a top 10 Stern for me, but it's because the rules are amazing. I eventually bought one! Theme was absolutely horribly executed though.
Quoted from aingide:Theme was absolutely horribly executed though.
Yup, that's why dream themes are so deadly. You work yourself up so heavy imagining it that they can rarely meet expectations.

Wrong.

Quoted from arcademojo:You mean besides the fact that it is an adult swim rehash of an 80's move. Or that the main people are Rick (Doc) and Morty (Marty) that travel in a space ship that copy's the DeLorien. Nope nothing from the 80's movie rehashed here.
Other than a scientist (Doc/Rick) and a kid (Marty/Morty) there isnt much similarity. How does a saucer shaped ship made of scraps like a delorean? It doesnt even do anything but fly. Portal guns are the preferred method of transportation. The creators of Rick and Morty have even made it abundantly clear that time travel is not a thing in their show. If anything, Rick and Morty is a modern style meta overload. No 80s themes in the show. It doesnt sound like you've actually seen the show. Just what you've gathered from a commercial.

Yes I’ve watched the first 2 seasons then lost interest. Yes the flying saucers is taken from the deloraen. Instead of time travel they travel to dimensions. As my original post stated it was loosely based on a 80s movie. No where did it say it had references to the 80s. And it is a fact that it started out as a BtTf rehash cartoone and still is based off the main people in the show.
I’m sorry, really not feeling the love for Stranger Things.
I think 99% of the actors were just terrible, couldn’t act for toffee.
One big cliche..... 1st season had me slightly entertained then went down hill rapidly. Kept watching, hoping it would get better, ......... it didn’t - just ridiculously awful.
Kept falling asleep....
I’m sure Stern will hit a home run with the cabinet artwork. A young girl with a skinhead and a nosebleed all over the cabinet and a big fat fcuker cop on the playfield eating doughnuts...... the goofy looking kid on the translite...........hold on they are all goofy I’m sure it will be awesome...
Off for a few games of MET....

This is a useful and thoughtful take. It’s what we all wanted...actually, what we all needed more than wanted. Sincerely, thanks very much for participating. A+ post.

Stranger Things
I'm interested in both. Both are modern themes that appeal to many demographics with many possibilities for great rulesets and creative gameplay. Bring them both on!
Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Will always be an immediate pre order
Regardless if it sucks or a masterpiece

And this is why...... Well I'm going to stop before I get modded.
I'll just simply downvote the ___ out of this.
Quoted from Extraballz:Let’s see...Stern took JP and turned it into a generic dinosaur game.
Well, its a generic dinosaur theme, where you're working at a Dinosaur Theme Park/Zoo, you have to deal with escaped dinosaurs, power outages, collecting DNA from petrified mosquitoes, and Newman saying "Nah, nah, nah!". All while listening to John Williams music everytime you start a game. But sure, its just a generic dinosaur theme.

Lol. Well the good news is that you can move along then and check back 3 months later for the next stern release. I'm ready to see both stranger things and then TMNT.

Are you referring to this show?
51VGnkzRZaL._SX268_ (resized).jpgTurtles is not a “no” for me, but I am not necessarily a fan of the theme or it’s music.
Stranger things could be pretty exciting. I’m sure it tough to get enough of the rights (actors, music, art) to get the feel of the show in the game. I hope it’s a great game and I look forward to seeing it.

I think adding in the JP bash got you all the downvotes.
Stern ripped many pinheads off (including me) with a bad PFs and will not make it right. Their customer service as of now consists of IGNORING customers. If you want to roll the dice on quality with zero support toward serious issues, go with Stern. As much as I despise this company and hope they go out of business, they have improved in adding mechs etc. JP is pretty good value in the way of mechs; it's just that those mechs will likely break prematurely and Stern won't do dick about it.
I'm excited for other choices, and I wish JJP or Chicago or spooky (anybody but Stern) got the license to Stranger Things. That being said, Rick and Morty are sooooo much more fun as characters. The creativity by spooky will be great I'm sure.
Stranger Things at our location should kill it. Looking forward to this one. Hearing it will be shipped this month too, insane.
Quoted from V8haha:So anyone confirmed that there will be a release next week?
not yet
Quoted from Mr_Outlane:Are you referring to this show?[quoted image]
Oh wow! Tripping the rift. Forgot all about that show. Used love it. Thanks for posting.
Quoted from arcademojo:And it is a fact that it started out as a BtTf rehash cartoone and still is based off the main people in the show.
The 2 main characters are based off Doc and Marty. There is literally nothing else that makes this a "bttf rehash cartoon".
Wheres the bully, the time machine, the hoverboard, the Oedipus complex, the family friendly tone,....the time travel?
Instead you get Mr meeseeks, interdimensional cable, portals, global level cronenberg mutations, the councils of Rick's, evil Morty and zero family friendliness lol.

Have you even seen BTTF? That is, point for point, the exact plot of that movie!
Quoted from dashv:Did Zen Studios just accidentally leak that the next Stern is in fact Stranger Things?
Check out this reply I got to a tweet of mine.
Could they know something?
[quoted image]
It’s already been leaked.
Quoted from Multiballmaniac1:It’s already been leaked.
Have any pictures been floating around? or are you just talking about the fact that its known to be coming?
Quoted from guitarded:The Tooth.
Shoot The Tooth.
