Quoted from Shapeshifter:The secret bit is who is doing the code??!!!
No one has said that other than it would be Keith's ideas?
I'll be the first to say Lyman team leader.
And will release v1.0 when it ships.
If you think Lyman was only working on Bat66 updates for the last year you're nuts and Lyman loves rock 'n' roll 
Quoted from vicjw66:Maybe it’s been confirmed before but, Is Iron Maiden going to be a stand alone new design or will it share a theme like FG and Shrek?
What other recent pin has 4 flippers ?
Quoted from underlord:Nudge me awake when Stern is doing Jaws.
Have a nice slumber Rip Van Winkle........
Quoted from StylesBitchly:No, that would be Led Zeppelin.
I believe there will be a LZ pin still in the near future. Stern needs to let Borg finish his dream title. It's been discussed before. IJ4 was to be LZ but the license and the meeting of the minds couldn't quite make things happen. It would be a huge seller !!!! It needs to be done.
Quoted from GravitaR:IJ4 layout as a LZ pin, HAHA
Not the layout, the game time line. IJ4 was put together in 4 months. It's in a Pingame Journal article. You'd have to dig it up.
Quoted from CreepyTom:Borg was wearing a guns and roses shirt in Dead flip’s guardians reveal, maybe he can design another Guns N’ Roses pin.
JJP rumored to have that one. 
Quoted from jgentry:We will find out soon. Rumor is that Iron Maiden is a variation of the Archer layout though and that Trudeau was on Deadpool and now Gomez is finishing it.
Well Deadpool Playfield looks very GomezIsh, could be. (backboard ramp similar to BDK and right ramp sword similar to the lord of the rings, center spinner shot like MB/LOTR, left ramp habitrail powder coated red and similar feed like Bat66) Certainly makes a little more sense because Keith has been with Stern since March 2017.
Quoted from benheck:And let's be honest - Modern Stern would not produce a PF like Archer had.
Don't necessarily agree, Archer playfield didn't have any real standout expensive ball interaction toys. Had up/down scoop like Harley had a captive ball like family guy, and a spiral thingy center ramp shot like Austin powers other than that 4 flippers and multiple ramps and an up/down ramp flap. Stern could definitely make this. What it does have is fantastic flow and some great shots.
Quoted from bigduke6:I'm not sure how concrete the info is on Maiden being next, (But I am hoping!) But I do remember the day before they released Metallica, Sterns face book account put a Maiden picture up. I really hope this isn't a fakeout.
It's real, and next.
Quoted from kermit24:The old IMDN artist, Derek Riggs, walked away from the band some years ago (maybe 8 years or so) over some differences. I doubt the old art is even on the table.
Iron maiden owns the art. The Trooper is the most popular and recognizable and sold product at the shows as well as their beer products. The Trooper beer.
Quoted from pinballwil:I really love Stern but i am very happy when they run out of names for music pins.
Let say three years and then its done with the music pin because there is no decent band left hahaha.
I hate music theme pinball machines.
Well.... only ACDC as a music theme and Arrowsmith for the layout but thats all.
Most of them are bad machines.
Lets hope Iron Maiden is a great pinball machine with a extra music theme.
Led Zeppelin
Judas Priest
Rush
Hendrix
Motley Crue
Def Leppard
Van Halen
Ozzy
Black Sabbath
Beastie Boys
Beatles
Ramones
Pink Floyd
Gun 'n Roses
Queen
ZZ Top
I think Stern, JJP, Heighway, and Spooky has more than 3 years of material to work with.
Quoted from StylesBitchly:Still waiting for Led Zepelin.
I'll be the first to say it would outsell AC/DC. Stern needs to finish this license.
Quoted from StylesBitchly:Like your list but Data East did Guns 'n Roses already. I just played one the other day LOL!
Rumor is another one will be made with current technology

Quoted from charles4400:Munstets would he great BUT if KaPow is making it, seems like it will be priced just like BM66 which unfortunately would make it a pass for me.
Munsters = Pro/Prem/LE

Quoted from PinballManiac40:» YouTube video Start listening at 35:50 Deadpool was mentioned to be done by ZY.
And at 32:50 he talks about Munsters 
6 months later
Initial first 1000 run Beatles finishing currently.
Primus (limited) contract game on the line next week.
Munsters Pros after that I assume.
Quoted from PinMonk:I was just talking about cornerstones. A vault IS coming, but we don't know which, though Tron is really the only likely true vault, unless it's the long-rumored Spike version of LotR (which I would totally buy).
Interesting I thought they were done with the SAM DMD vaults...

Quoted from Budman:I believe Brian was hired two years ago and would have to assume he has been developing something all that time. Seems odd that he would be put on a title like TMNT.It doesn’t take two years to bring a game like that to market. I thought he would do a unique homegrown title.
Maybe 2 years to get more assets from Stranger Things season 3......
Quoted from PinMonk:The most common titles being thrown around are:
Stranger Things
TMNT
James Bond
Led Zeppelin
The next one may be the Brian Eddy pin...
Might be 3 of those in 2020....
Quoted from Psw757:Next machine will be the long rumored Led Zeppelin machine.
That one might be cooking longer.
8 months later
Quoted from zr11990:Watch Led Zepplin be another Rolling Stones
Nope. The rumor Quicksilver rehash to Zeppelin is false. Zeppelin is a full feature pro/premium/LE cornerstone.

Quoted from oneballjab:100% agree.
If Lyman is on this and gives it his magic touch, with the same level of theme integration and attention to detail as BM66, then it could really be a fantastically fun game.
Keith writes his own rules so he doesn’t need Lyman......

Quoted from beltking:Rather have an expensive Queen pin than Rush. I’d buy a queen!

Quoted from screaminr:Man , I hope BTTF has more in it than a Godzilla pro , it's one of the most barren underneath Playfields I've ever seen .
[quoted image]
There is way more in Beatles than Godzilla Pro.
Quoted from crujones4life:Just watched BTTF 2 tonight. All BTTF movies are free on Peacock btw. So hyped for new BTTF pin!
[quoted image]
When is it coming out, I've not heard of this one.
Love both GNR LE and Zeppelin LE.
Guess which one gets played the most…… Zeppelin. I think I agree with most everybody here in this board the pro is a turd there’s nothing on it but that extra ramp shot and that spinner magic magnet toy is really good which makes for some extra modes and achievement goals in the code, and it’s got fantastic code !

Quoted from oneballjab:Please god let this new Marvel Pin be Punisher, as you can tell from my avatar, kind of a dream theme for me.
Imagine a comic book version with villains like Jigsaw, Kingpin, Bullseye, Barracuda, The Russian, Bushwhacker, Ma Gnucci…
Yeti would knock the art out of the park just like he did on Deadpool.
Seriously art could be amazing check these out…
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Mike Zeck art Era on Punisher is the best !

Quoted from crujones4life:Lyman to some extent I think? Can't wait for tomorrow!
No Lyman.
Sexton/Rayday combo
Quoted from beelzeboob:I'm good with that because I love the code on LZ. And now once again it's time to cue Pac-Man humping a machine:
Agree, Zepp code is fantastic as is BKSoR.
Looking forward to see what they do with Rush.

Scuba diver under left upper playfield window similar to Monster Bash and the creature.

Quoted from ExSquid:GWAR pin?
Seeing them this coming Tuesday in Minnesota. Not the same without Brockie.
Quoted from Saltimbanco:We need a Coffy Pinball! This trailer is hilarious!
[quoted image]
Wow all these years and I can finally put a sample remix to a film....
Quoted from Thunderbird:So many of us agree with you on this one.
Games of lesser IP popularity going forward are most likely not going to sellout commanding $13K LEs, plus possible $500 shooter rods, and probable $3,000.00 toppers, making completed games $16,500.00 plus tax and shipping. This is Stern’s new Disney (Seth Davis) business model, making gigantic profits 4 to 5 times over BOM.
Bond and BTTF only have the chance of taking us to the cleaners, lol.
Quoted from NashtyFunk:I’m sure it’s been said but as relevant modern pin ideas go I think Dune would be epic. They’re planning a trilogy I believe and lots of story, lore, special effects stuff for toys would make a sweet pin.
[quoted image]
I literally dozed off a few times during the first film.
Quoted from RA77:I wonder who is doing
Wonder Woman
Mmmmm Carter in spandex and Kawasaki 2 strokes. Love it. Here's my dad awarded best in show 2021 with his 1974 H1

I’m sure it’ll be another home pin version with one node board for the pop bumpers to fire at the same time and the attract GI lights Oscillate 50-50 for a light show.
3 weeks later
Quoted from Ecw0930:I'm still.hoping that Stern gets the GI JOE license and goes all in on an original cartoon style pin!
The way sterns shoot I think would be best served on this theme. It could be amazing and there's loads of content!
Was anyone else a huge Joe's fan back in their childhood like I was?
2019 Expo in Chicago, Jody from Stern was wearing a GI Joe shirt.

If in fact it’s venom and Foo Fighters for 2023 new cornerstones this year, this will be the first year I will not buy a new Stern Pinball in my entire presence of getting into the Pinball hobby…. 30 years. Pretty sure I’m not alone at that thought.

I would expect Stranger Things to be getting Vaulted sometime around Christmas or first quarter 2024.
I reached out to Netflix directly about Stranger Things Stern Pinball….. although they did not give me any ETA they said restocks are coming.
Also good to see all the Pinball parts resellers have gotten recent stock on the projectors. Marco little shop of Games and Pinball Life.

Quoted from iceman44:The market will speak as you say Vino.
I’ve gotten several VenomLE emails today from Distros.
Granted, haven’t seen it yet but we all know it will be the same formula in the same box with different artwork and PF.
Stern makes great games. Over and over again.
Raising the price, never raising the bar.
That game plan is on its last legs.
I won’t pay $13k for ANY LE at 1k quantity now. Raise the price in the future?
Premium for $10k? Boat anchor in the future
The clock is ticking and the FOMO Covid bump is over
Nailed it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Quoted from starfighter:I prefer this hidden mode.
[quoted image]
A Stern jab at Spooky next pin. Love it.
Quoted from manadams:I know "mnpinball" has been right about many releases but they also said He-man was the next Stern release couple weeks ago in this thread before Venom was revealed.
Never said it was next show me the quote, I just said it was coming..
Quoted from Pinplayer1967:Stern doesn’t care. They don’t read these threads and if they did it’s just for laughs.
They read them.

What are the benefits ? Inquiring minds....

Quoted from PinMonk:It was basically finally confirmed months ago when Eddy said Stranger Things is hard to get "right now" then realized he screwed up with his wording and only smiled broadly when the person asked for a followup. That was after the NLA projector magically returned to stock AND back in Jan 2023 when Gomez had mused about fixing the TK lock "if" it was rerun (that was pretty clearly a "when").
PinMonk Maybe you missed it when I said it 3 months ago here when I directly reached out to Netflix. ..Long Before the Eddy Live stream.

Quoted from mbl1116:I remember that post...also remember something about a Tron vault with LCD screen?
Hey, when I make a post, the info is accurate at the time I gather the information regardless of what a company decides to do or licensing months going forward is out of my control.

Quoted from Billygrippo:What about kme wearing “they live”
Stern will never do a John Carpenter Pinball machine, spooky however I’m sure will do another one in the future.

Quoted from SimplePin:Lot of folks missing here and more than one from the band that would be the only rock pin that I would consider. The Grateful Dead!
They have the artwork I’ll give them that, but their music is boring
Quoted from Rizmo:If Stern was doing 3 cornerstones a year again would we see a new release at TPF or would it be right after?
I believe we will see another new Stern title at Midwest gaming classic, and the third will be Chicago expo.

Quoted from manadams:I believe it, MNPINBALL said it was coming awhile back.
But is it Stern or AP ?
