Title: NEW Star Wars Pinball ?
Post by: Caveoftreasures on November 23, 2014, 12:54:29 AM
With the Star Wars franchise about to release its next Star Wars movie - Star Wars Episode 7 (then the movies name) etc etc, do you think Stern or JJP or someone will try to secure rights to do a new pinball machine ?

Traditionally, everything Star Wars has usually faired very well.

Do u think someone will do a new Star Wars pinny ?

And if so, would you buy it ? Assuming it's great build.

Does the Star Wars theme interest you on a new Pinball machine ?

(JJPs use of a large colour LCD screen would do the movie annimations well)...,

Thoughts anyone ? !@#

With the franchise being refreshed,  I think it's inevitable we see a new Star Wars pin pop up. I'd also think that Stern will fight for this title. I think Jersey Jack will continue with their Warner Bros games and I'd like to see them produce a Harry Potter game. Not a fan of Harry Potter, but I think they could do the theme justice.

Cheers!
Adam.

Most definitely. Star Wars is one of the best themes for pinball - everyone has seen at least one of the movies !

Agree with most I'd like to see one :) don't care who does it as long as it's done right.

it would probably come from Stern as they already have a relationship with Disney

Whoever makes it, it would want to be good because the Star Wars Episode 1 platform had excellent graphics and very cool playfield features.

I think JJP would have to do it to utilise the big LCD.
The Pin 2000 felt a little like a widebody as well.
The large neon light sabre could make a comeback. I would like to see that make a comeback.
A large X Fighter would be cool as well.

License is probably too expensive for JJP...
Stern will probably do it  #*#

Luke Skywalker close up or Han Solo in the previous.
These are huge for $39.
My son Hunter is tall so they are value for money.

They come with a large and very accurate storm trooper blaster.
I didn't look to see if the Storm Trooper helmet was or wasn't attached to the rear of the packaging.

Really good detail on these. Gamesroom eye candy for under $40 !

I doubt if Stern could do this game justice, besides I don't like the LE, premium and pro business model that they have.
JJP would get my vote if they could get the licence.

It would take them forever to make .They have to get around TH first which who knows when any would be shipped to OZ .
