2000 is too new, does that mean that you would be considered a dinosaur if you knew the original movie release?

Who said anything about a movie....

[v8racefan]

[Pintoxicated]

Awww man.  Nick won't even give me a hint either. 

More hints please.

WELL DONE Mike!

Your boards have been excellent.
Also your services to the pinball has be outstanding

Would like to see two version of the pinball kits

1.........pinball kit with complete ready boards and playfield/backglass and hardware and complete cabinet/backbox

2.........pinball kit in a complete kit form, playfield/backglass ,electronic boards kits (assembly your own boards,) make your own cabinet/backbox ( owner supplied material}

I preferred option 2 . This will be more fun , making your own cabinet and backbox ........... Bring it on Mike and what does member thinks of the 2 options

[Pop Bumper Pete]

Licensed theme...
Input from industry veteran....

We know that Mike has had talks with Mr Hankin and is reproducing Hankin boards

It must be 'Shane Warne, the pinball machine'!!

I don't like the idea of putting driver, cpu pcbs etc from bare bone. I don't think there are many of us that good at soldering. If you're talking mounting them on a backboard then that's ok. I think as buyer you need to feel confident that at least the electronics are ok, then if there are problems in powering up for the first time you know more than likely its mechanical or a wiring issue.

What we've all failed to ask Mike which is extremely important..........will you be doing a cartwheel as the first ship leaves the Shanghai docks

I'll have a stab and say a Ferrari themed pinball

[ddstoys]

Lets just hope mikes smart and doesn't give deadline after deadlines he can't meet.

   I'm excited whatever the title

Mike is smart enough to make prototypes and to make sure things work

[swinks]

not keen on assembling electronic boards together but assembling a pin would be cool and bonding with your child

also would like to see a car theme, definitely not a shane game for me and doubt it would do well in the US as well

I am wondering if it is a SS style flat playfield or split level playfield, or dmd with ramps

[Cow Corner]

I'm not keen on assembling anything.
I wouldn't have thought this would have been licenced given Mikes love of original themes. The reveal will be interesting for sure.
