Transformers.... Who's getting one?

i'd like to, but i'm tapped out on fundage right now. TRON wiped out the 'ole squirrel money pretty substantially. :)
 
Will Most likely pass, due to the theme. Now theme hasnt stopped me before, but this one i am very averse to - never got into the films or even the cartoon growing up.

I do see alot of interest, which is exciting for Stern if they can get it right - another hit on their hands perhaps.

I am eager to see the toys on it though.
 
This is one theme I am over excited about. I had all the toys (back when metal toys ruled), watched the cartoons, saw the movies and enjoyed them. For me personally, it is the best theme to have.
 
Transformers is next by Gomez.
Music Themed pin (rumored) after that by Ritchie.
Maybe Advengers after that by (unknown)

I plan on getting Advengers LE also and then I will be tapped out for space.
 
Yep I feel the same way. I'm not getting a music themed pin.
Rumors were.... Led Zepplin, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Metallica, etc.


i don't have anything against those bands, but i'm with you....not gonna waste my money on a music themed pin. i don't care how good it is. just not my thing.


congrats to the people that like that kind of thing though.....and hell, it's good that they come out with at least one or two pins in a row that i DON'T want. saves money. :)

Exactly how I feel. I wish they would only come out with a theme I want every year or every other year just to save money. In 12 months time I bought 3 NIB pins. Granted I got rid of 2 B/Ws pins but spending 15K on 3 new pins is a lot of money.
 
I'm probably in on Transformers...obviously I want to SEE or at least HEAR something concrete about it before I commit. I've heard a lot of sweet sweet rumors....and if they come true, well...I think we can thank Jack for the evolution of Stern Pinball. ;)

Shit, I'm probably in on Steve's game too....if it IS a music game and it IS AC/DC....fuck...I'm so in. :)
 
dammit.... i was really hoping for that JUSTIN BIEBER pin :(

Maybe a Taylor Swift. It might bring new blood into pinball, but on the other hand, the old guard probably wouldn't go for it unless it was a really good game, and even then, maybe not.

I am still waiting for the Facebook Pin to be announced.
 
Too bad it's probably movie-based. If it was cartoon-based, it would be much better. However, you've got to appeal to the (small) masses!
 
I was on board until I decided I'm not helping Stern with their over-inflated pricing structure. The LE should be the regular production version and I think its a shame the direction Stern has gone.

Its a dream theme to me but I figure if I'm going to complain about their business practices it would make me hypocritical to buy one NIB.
 
I think this theme (Transformers not Lady Gaga) could be one of my favorites for Stern to date. The potential is endless but I'm afraid that it will fall short like the rest of the newer Sterns have in the recent past.

I also thought Tron was a perfect one for Stern to bounce back but I'm not impressed when looking at the game...haven't played it yet though so I might be blown away but the total package.

If got my fingers crossed that they still have what it takes to make a good game.

Seriously, watch the cartoon again. While I loved it as a kid and own the complete series DVD set....just look at it again, objectively. It's a real piece of shit. LOL....while I still have nostaglia for it, I have no problem w/ it being based on the movies. While they're also shitty in their own way...at least they feel new and modern.
