Could they do a video mode where you have to use your telepathy to guess a card and zap you through the flipper buttons %.%

As a premise I would buy one however I have my reservation about a Stern release until they improve the build quality and code release.

Having just purchased a GoT pro and my friend who bought an le I can safely say Stern has produced a top notch pin. The spike system is excellent with stereo sound and audio out. The decals are 100% (which they should be). Zero issues and the clear is the best I've seen. On par with my wozrr. My WOZ by the way had a couple of small issues that I had to fix so one up for Stern from my end.

Ghostbusters I would consider if it's not Lonnie Ropp coding. Plus obviously the layout and art etc. but Stern quality control has certainly improved.

rumour suggests that this playfield could possibly be a GB playfield and the rumour is a main ramp will go below and back above the playfield (larger boxes on the rhs) which would something new

which was spied on this thread a little while back

someone has already mocked up some plastics, would be funny if it wasn't the GB playfield, but what the hell bit of fun

I can confirm that this is a version of the GB playfield and it is happening and has a insanity falls style ramp that goes below the playfield and back up out of the playfield

Oh man! I have caught the hype and it sucks. Went out and bought the remastered blu ray movies. Firkin Classics. I can see so many call outs and links between the two movies and pinball.
O h but what to sell to make room? I will not buy on spec like I did WNBJM again ( I really lucked out on Nellie as it is firkin AWESOME ) BUT on a licensed title, probably not.
DO, RAY, EGOOOON such a cool movie from my youth.
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

it doesn't have a extra playfield - single level with some unique shots (a little different but) close to the sketch below, and has proton beams (don't cross the beams  ^^^ ) coming from a hole either side just fractionally above the tip of the apron

this sketch is getting a little closer

I think this theme will make a good (fun) pinball. Hopefully stern do it justice, but it's time to move on to colour displays.

Looking forward to more updates.

Have no real interest in buying, Nice to see these leaked up dates adds to the hype I guess

I concur with regard to the QA over the past 3-5 years. More a case of the competition, but my KISS LE is still perfect. I was not expecting this to be the case, but I can't find "anything" to complain about.

based on comments from certain insiders I think Spiderman VE and GB have a good chance of getting a colour screen and announced in the next month

this sketch is getting closer, though is a 2 flipper game, 4 in lanes to flippers, 1 killer ramp and another cross over ramp hopefully on the pro as well.

and this was in relation to future games - looks like a hendrix in the near future
