Spooky Pinball Podcast 14 - Planetary Pinball

Haven't listened yet, but will be interesting to see what the new rights owners has to say.

Having read a threatening email from the new owner to an innocent party, I wonder if there's a mandatory finishing school requirement?

It is a rather long podcast, and there was a lot of info regarding the deal and how it came about. Seems like there is a Business plan moving forward, with a list of reproduction playfields, plastics and parts from several different sources. Interesting to note that PP have already secured some third party licenses, the first being the "Elvira" character. So if you own an "Elvira and the Party Monsters" or "Scared Stiff" then expect some quality repro parts rather than Chinese plastic frogs on a stick !

Nothing hugely revolutionary, but interesting the reproduction playfields in the pipeline, and they are using the licence to move the business forward which can only be a good thing for collectors.
The Wizard of Oz shooter lane music at the end was cool, Chris Granner has done a great job
