Heighway Pinball

Hi everyone,

This is Andrew from Heighway Pinball.

As suggested by Oldskool, I have started a thread and would like to give you regular updates here and answer any questions that you may have.

To begin with, I am attaching our latest flyer for "Full Throttle" featuring the finished artwork. The only thing missing now is the plastics art - which is due for completion within the next week.

Thanks already for all the positive comments in previous threads.

Andrew

The new design rocks for sure. Cant wait to see the cabinet artwork. I hope its full size racing bikes side by side doing big powerstands. Anything from the Isle of Man looking stuff would be excellent. Well done.

We are talking to one potential Aussie distributor right now, and maybe another shortly. We will definitely have one in place by the time we start production in April

We are looking to start shipping in early May. We will probably ship to you guys first, due to the long shipping times.

For all the latest photos and info, please look up Heighway Pinball on Facebook.

For now, here is the cabinet sideart...

It looks OK, but its a bit plain for a 2013 modern cabinet (sorry, but thats my honest feedback)

I was hoping u did something like the style of the Batman cabinet artwork, (which has excellent detail of someone sitting on a full size motorbike).

If u copied that style and did something that looked like a recent great motorbike racing shot from the Isle of Man racing events, it would look much more modern and edgy-er.
The cabinet artwork is something alone that will encourage or discourage someone to buy a pinball machine for their home collection, regardless of the great playfield.

Anyway, I thought the cabinet artwork could be much more life like and less cartoonish......just an idea/some feedback anyway.

what are you sorry for Cavey? that is your opinion and feel free to express it.
I like an original artwork that isn,t photoshopped. ^^^
It will most certainly stand out in a crowd. Especially with a cartoon hottie making a comeback.  #*#  #*#  #*# more chicks I reckon- that's what has been missing for too long.
Circe's looked better with the Bar Wench!  &&

Hi Andrew,

Watching your progress on youtube. Great to see another manufacturer taking the plunge. the future is bright, and looking forward to seeing the future possiblities. Looks like a high speed game, which just about everyone seems to like.

Best of luck, and keep us posted. #*#

I watched the youtube video, and some guy who calls himself Mr Hard Sausage was the first person to post a comment on the youtube page.   %.%
With personalities like this around, pinball will never get tooo serious, which might be a good thing.lol

Cant wait to see more progress on this motorbike pinny. Ramps look awesome so far.
