Can Ozzy read or write? I honestly thought he had so few brain cells left from years of heavy drug use, he waa basically a vegetable at this point.
Quoted from mbl1116:Two straight music pins would be a colossal miscalculation on their part
How so? Rock pins sell very well and Stern is in the business to make money.
Did you just cite a source whose source is this very thread?? Well done!!

Stern will announce a new "non-cornerstone" game in the next 2 weeks. Specifically a Venom pin.
Why?
Stern has floor space at at the San Diego Comic Con and is sharing that space with "Rebellion Republic".
https://n1a.goexposoftware.com/events/cci22/goExpo/floorPlan/viewFloorPlan.php?ei=528&zb=3721
The last time Stern had space at the Sand Diego Comic Con it was in 2019 when the Stern Space was physically inside the "Star Wars space" see post 3968 here https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/what-will-be-the-next-stern-pinball-machine/page/80#post-5098330 They launched the Star Wars home Pin about this time (+/- a week). Stern also launched their next Cornerstone game, Jurassic Park, about a month after the announcement of the Star Wars Home Pin.
The timeline for this lines up perfectly with Stern announcing their cornerstone pin next month, which they have publically announced they will do.
I am not super familiar with Venom (I though it was the comic book character until I opened the Rebellion Republic site" https://rebellionrepublic.com/
What I am not sure on is if this will be a Venom "Home Pin" or something more limited yet in the same form factor like the "Heavy Metal" pin. My money is on the latter.
So, we will get a new non-cornerstone Venom Pin from Stern, most likely a Venom "Heavy Metal" style premium price in a mostly Home Edition pinball body in the next 2 weeks, no later than 24 July.

Ok, so Stern is working with a t shirt company to release a pin for Venom, the 70s British metal band...
I mean, they're doing the ape game, so I'm not gonna say no, but I dont think this would be a mass produced pin...
Can we just do another run it Maiden instead??

To be fair... if they were going the Heavy Metal route and just making a premium in a reskinned Homepin... all they would need is art. Who better than a T-Shirt company for that.
“Lay down your souls to the gods Rock 'n' Roll!!!
Metal tenfold through the deadly black hole
Riding Hell's stallions bareback and free
Taking our chances with raw energy”
Stern will never make anything as cool as a venom pin. But it’s fun to pretend.
But what about McFarlane and Ozzy?
Is the booth now:
Stern pinball
Ozzy
McFarlane(toy maker who happened to create venom)
Rebellion Republic (band merch company who happens to have Venom the band on their website)
I dont think this is true, so which booth is stern really at??
Whatever the next Stern title is ...
either buy it or don’t.
No reason to get all worked up over it.

Quoted from KneeKickLou:Wait wasn’t the internet invented for people to get worked up over stuff?
partially invented so (or maybe just one if its best features is) that people separated geographically could connect over common interests!
This particular forum is about people who like pinball machines. I mean really, really like pinball machines.
In fact, there is a whole thread centered on speculation of what the next pinball machine will be. That's pretty much all they discuss in that particular thread...
Quoted from mbl1116:On their latest merchandising post I see the 3 most recent Stern cornerstones, and a random comic art Spider-man…dropping more hints?!?!?
Yeah I’m reaching…
[quoted image][quoted image]
Reaching for sure but I would love to buy an old Spiderman. So fun!

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!
It's venom and a cornerstone. We all knew it was being worked on, just didn't know the timing. Not sure it could be more obvious at this point. But anything is possible, I suppose.

Dumb newb ? What is a cornerstone pin?
Venom pinball machine is a unlikely thing to see. If I even saw a homebrew I'd flip out.
That's about as likely as A Christian Rock band pinball honoring Petra, Micheal W Smith or Carmen ( the Pin )
Quoted from GoodOmens:[quoted image]
Would empty my wallet for a Futurama pin
Quoted from JMCFAN:Dumb newb ? What is a cornerstone pin?
Cornerstones are games that get the usual Pro, LE, Premium treatment. One-offs or boutique games like Heavy Metal,
The Pabst Can Crusher, and even
Batman 66 (Premium) /
Elvira's House of Horrors (Limited Edition) are considered non-cornerstone.

I feel like you don't know how pinside works, let alone this thread....
How could they do a Venom game not based on Movies? The cost of animating the segways would be prohibitive. You'd end up with a powerpoint or 'Aerosmith' quality segways. Though I kinda miss my Aersomith pin
Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:The last time Stern had space at the Sand Diego Comic Con it was in 2019 when the Stern Space was physically inside the "Star Wars space" .
Stern also has had ballrooms at the Marriott with a lot more space the last few years.

They literally did Deadpool comics when there were live action movies happening. That is your "How could they?"

I've done animation & yes it's not for folks with weak stomachs; that being said as long as they don't need to create the assets I believe they could do some fun custom animations. Example ball save you see Venoms tongue go across the screen. The animations BTW don't need to be stellar for the Pin to be great it just needs to support a Design System that's cohesive towards the brand. Look at Iron Maiden IMO the animations are okay.
But man if they do it off the movie I'm out!! Sony really should sell off the rights to Disney & do Venom right!! Sorry but the Venom movies were terrible the only redeeming quality was the CGI but story & characters were most uninspired IMO a big fat fail!!!

Even though I know Stern would never do this, it would be funny if they made an alternate translite or LE version featuring a female Venom. That was the best part of the movie version was seeing She-Venom.
Quoted from Zartan:One for sale on Kijiji
I know, thanks.. I'm thinking about it.
Quoted from kool1:I know, thanks.. I'm thinking about it.
I have Spider-Man Black, awesome game! Almost bolted to the floor! Worth every penny!
I need to get hold of the HO train club to make the buildings for me. The others don’t look right.

Every other year there have been 3 pins at the Heavy Metal booth. Plus about 20 or so machines at the Marriott.

You don’t like the ones back alley does? I have a set on my BSM and really like them. You have to remove them to lift playfield but mine also use Velcro to hold in place. The biggest detriment are the roof is not detailed out too interesting. They made a custom set for me with damaged windows and roof stuff. In worst case they are already made to fit and they can be modified further. Can’t get to it to take a pic.
I feel like they look too big. I also want a little more detail in them. I might get the back alley ones depending upon how much the train guys charge. I also bought a different train. Stole the idea from the Spider-Man thread.

They have said they won't do two rock pins in a row.
