I like the look of the playfield and would say it will be pretty sweet when illuminated.

Not a massive fan of the cabinet style or the topper but it may look better in person.

Looking forward to seeing videos of the  game play!

Seems like cab design may put some people off? I'm transitional and like the standard shape

Still loving my Metallica Premium

finally a company launches a game with a decent promo video unlike the crap of Stern and ramble by JJP.

Well done Heighway, though still not a huge fan of the cabinet.

Well done Heighway, they have taken a killer theme and have done it justice.
This game really looks like the goods, I'm in! Keep pumping out these type of themes please...Blade Runner!

I was going to buy one once it was announced way back when but when I actually saw the cabinet on Full Throttle I passed.

Good luck to all who buy it though.

The theme and art are really cool. The cabinet is a real let down for me.

Stuck ball!! What a let down.

Don't mind the look of it.Sleek modern design which is what's needed.. love the dual screens.
Hats off to Heighway, I reckon they have a winning recipe here.
Fix that stuck ball issue though..LOL

Looks interesting, cabinet and glass surround an issue for me though.

Also hope they plan to cover the 'tongue' in something that looks like the alien's tongue. Also expected it to grab the ball quicker like the alien uses it in the movies.

Early days still though.

Promo made it look a little stop/start, but the other vid showed that must not be as often as it seemed. Love the theme, be keen to play this one.

I love how some people are getting their panties all in a bunch over a cabinet.
Wahhhh, the cabinet won't look right in my line up.....
