I think in this case it may have been better if photo realistic art had been used rather than a comic/cartoon representation on the playfield?

Personally I would have spread the artwork out a bit more across the top of the playfield as well - top half is nearly all red/orange cloud bursts and little else.

Each person in the squad has a unique identity, so why not use that to its full potential in the game with artwork in the applicable location?

Arnie - Front and Centre of playfield - perhaps just the heads of Arnie and Predator facing each other?
Mac - Right ramp.
Billy - Left ramp.
Blain - Pop Bumper area.
Dillon - left and right outlane drains so when you lose the ball you get "Dillon, you son of a bitch" speech.
Hawkins - left and right loops.

etc.

I sent an email a few days ago asking to go on the wait list. Will see how that pans out.  ()

Coming together well, but I agree with Pinsanity's comments.

here are a few shots from Allentown Pinfest this weekend with the art worked playfield in the game


looks like it still needs the insert wording and the uv strip light is for hunt mode where all the lights will go out and show up UV printing and whites etc.

Just thought I'd pop up the link to a playfield video the SKIT B boys posted earlier today illustrating how the UV paint looks under black light. Not quite in production yet...but getting closer to playing PREDATOR in 2014!

Much as i would like to do so, i just cant see myself spending thousands of $$ on a pin (ANY pin), mainly as i couldn't spare the $$.. i'd have to sell a few of my other games to get it and that aint happening  *.* *.* *.*

If i were rich and had lots of room id already have my name down for one of these games  *%* *%*
