I though why not we just throw our dream pinball theme..

Mine would be

THUNDERCATS!!!!! It would be awesome with eye of ra etc......

Dont you guys agree =)

NOW what s your dream pinball theme!!!
 
I was just talking to my wife about that the other night saying, other than the Tron LE pinball, I really cannot think of another theme that might make me want to spring for another NIB pinball...


...then it came to me...I'm a huge Battlestar Galactica fan - uh oh, if anyone ever came out with one, I don't know what I'd sell to get it, but I probably would. Old series or new series, wouldn't matter.

Luckily, it's such a small audience I probably don't have to worry about it. I can dream though...

Think of the rules that could make gameplay so awesome
-get/make gifts
-keep Mrs Claus happy
-load sled
-deliver toys
-chimney shots
-decorate tree
-turbo boost sled
-naughty list
 
how about a car dealership related pinball.....with some really cheesy characture drawings of the salesman and the car. not necessarily a certain brand of car....(chevy or ford) just a general theme
make the shots to.....
sell the car
deliver the parts
upgrade to performance parts
a whole other section of the game devoted to body shop related...
a few toys on the playfield like a revolving car or multiple garagew doors that open....
shoot ramp shots to load the "SHOWROOM" with lights focused on the pinballs like cars

this would be a good theme and EVERYONE has been to a car dealership.....
too many licensed machines
 
i think another good one would be.....
how about another UNIVERSAL STUDIOS monster themed pinball
just like creature from the black lagoon except another monster outta the bunch
 
Though I would never buy it since it doesn't fit in with my game room's space theme, you left out Disney/Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas"! Also, speaking of Disney, a Haunted Mansion pin would be sweet.

The Nightmare Before Christmas is my favorite movie...I'd love a pin with that theme.

Good. Call.

I'd buy a NIB Battlestar Galactica, but I'd definitely rather see it based on the 2004 series. Could be a cool dark pin with lots of cool audio.

Lost would be a cool pin, too, but I have no idea how you would play a pin based on that.

I also agree it would be nice to see some non-licensed stuff. I miss that.

I haven't watched Lost, but from what I hear you just need to leave openings in the playfield where toys should go to represent holes in the plot.
 
I can think of a few.....

Micronauts
Musclecars of the 1960's
Battleship (incorporating elements of the Milton Bradley game)
WWII aircraft theme (B-17 perhaps?)
Unexplained phenomena (Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, pyramids, UFOs, etc.)
H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythology
 
1 - Ghostbusters
2 - Avengers
3 - Army of Darkness :)
4 - Nintendo theme - like a smash brothers kind of thing with all the characters.
5 - Pixar
6 - Halo
7 - Starcraft
8 - Hot Wheels
9 - DC comics
10 - Marvel comics

Ha! Then we're going to need a lot of toys. :)

How about a good baseball-themed game? It wouldn't even need to be an MLB license. Baseball is baseball. I mean, what's out there? Big Hurt? Never played it but I'd give it a shot.
 
I would LOVE to see a Muppets pin. In fact rumor mill has it that Stern is looking to release two more pins by end of year. The Muppets have a movie coming out late November. I would hope that the pin would be relevant to the original Muppets show not this movie though.

But on the flip side of the coin, only people who grew up with the Muppets would give a shit about it. But then again does it make any better or worse sense than Wizard of Oz? Heh
