Ghostbusters

I'll second that one. From memory the Atari and C64 video games based on it were huge.

I had the C64 version and it was an awesome game. Would have been a great pinball as well.

the C64 was to memory a good game as i was a teenager when it was made but it was a bit repetitive.
sorry to go off topic a bit, I had it on cassette tape, I think the C64 deserves its own thread.

You guys are forgetting something - 80's movies were great, but 80's pinballs were not.
Who has an 80’s pinnie and raves about it??
 
Williams/Bally should have made a theme, based on the Gelati Man…..pinnie named ICECREAM.

Aim of the game is to collect & eat all the ice creams served from the Gelati man.
First mode (single cone with Vanilla) leading up the the all mighty wizard mode “Cookies & Cream in a cup with nuts & chocolate syrup”, yummy.

Each shot made on the only ramp in the game depletes another bite from your serving.

What about the hurry up mode – before the sun melts it!!

3 pop bumpers serve you pushing in line – don’t we all hate queuing up!!

And finally the topper - party/fairy lights flashing with a massive ice cream cone in the middle.


Makes me want to play pinball now.

 %.%lost in space(the original series) would have been great although late 1960,s -gottlieb games like domino, 4 seasons ,& bally games like capersville were the games of the era ,& compared to pinballs with speech ,multiball etc ,they were light years behind .....although the famous robot & the jupitor 2 ,would look great on the playfield! :tumble:

why not bring a old thread back to life instead of starting another - still reckon a "dukes of hazzard" should be made. The guys are still open to work by the looks with a new add on US tv, as they could do the voice work.

Whatever has been already mentioned in this thread already are all good.
I think anything by Irwin Allen should be considered. Some of his better known TV series include,
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964–68)
Lost in Space (1965–68)
The Time Tunnel (1966–67)
Land of the Giants (1968–70)
The Swiss Family Robinson (1975–76)
Code Red (1981–82)
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

Interesting to see that a couple of ideas on this thread have now been made. Tron but I guess technically it's the sequel, Predator and even a one off Ghost Busters was made out of an old Flash Gordon.
The number 1 pin I wish was made is the Mad Magazine pin. Almost happened but didn't quite get there.

would love to see a ghostbusters pin go into production  ^^^, humour and heaps of cool sounds from the movie - could be sweet.

Battle Star Galactica for me, combination of cylon effects and artwork, with the aim of reaching earth.... awesome!

Some great themes in this thread.
I'd like to see a pin based on the saw series of movies.

LEGO - The Pinball.

No more pins catering exclusively to 45 year old men, designed by 60 year old men and featuring 70 year old geriatric rock stars please.
