Exploding castle - MM.
Tube dancer - BBB
Supercharger - Getaway.

Sparky is my new favourite. When they first unveiled Metallica, I thought "that character has nothing to do with the band", but I love it now. I wish I had a Sparky toy for my desk.

I'm sure there's a thread on pinside where the original artist has set up a preorder list to reproduce custom (personalised) painted Sparkys. Think they are $300 each from memory.

After having a few lads over tonight I am convinced it is the BUCK in my new BIG BUCK HUNTER PRO PINBALL!
So much laughter and piss taking was going on  #*#
Other wise it is the random path way island in GILLIGANS ISLAND ( best pinball ever )
Spinning lamp in TOTAN is AWESOME, just like WHIRLIND spinning disc
If all that fails, ANY ROTO TARGET in the  EM's
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

Ironically, I hate Video modes on pinballs. I like the animations throughout the games, but video modes suck !

Agree for nearly all games, but love the video mode on AFM, that is a real blast and fits the theme so incredibly well.

Agree video modes are pretty lame but the programmers don't have much to go by and if they went for too long you'd crack it because you want to be playing pinball. I think after a couple of titles to show off the novelty they should have canned it unless it really added to the game like afm
Still loving my Metallica Premium

Video mode on GnR isn't too bad either.  My pick would be the vid on BSD though I think.  There is a bit of skill in it as far as bigger points for letting the wolves get closer to you.  Actually, I don't mind the video mode in FT either.

What you never told me about that
"more points the closer they are lol"
But then again I just shoot like crazy :-)
Seriously I'm not a fan of video modes but BSD is a good one.

Shadow has the best video mode i have played on a pin and it is worth playing as you can get an extra ball!

I prefer interatctive toys so memorable/favorites for me are....

Tron - Spinning Disc
Theatre of magic - Trunk
Cirqus Voltiare - Ringmaster
Twister/Xmen - Spinning disc with magnet
Roadshow/Funhouse - Talking heads
Goldeneye - Satellite
Waterworld - Deez/Atoll

Ringmaster on CV

+1

Simple yet effective.

Rudy is an engineering marvel and was the first toy that the game could revolve around.

The most intricate would be the Corvette LT-5 Ramp. It is a cool toy as well. Jurassic Park Dino is also very clever.

I also think the magic trunk in Theater of Magic was quite clever, much in the same way as The Ringmaster.

Bride of Pinbot.  Rotating head is nice, but the way you lock balls into eyes/mouth is beautiful

Shame the rest of the game is so boring really.
