Ok, let's build a machine that all of the community and pinheads want! And at a price everyone can afford. We can do it better than these so called professionals.

So, we need a body, a head and legs.

What sort of screen/translite are we going for?

Licensed or unlicensed?
 
All those who contribute gets a badge ………now get collecting those toilet roll tubes and sticky back plastic…🙂

Night of the Living Dead, public domain

Edit..... googled it and seems to be ripe in the VP world for a long time... sorry
 
Well it makes sense to be unlicensed
And based on the most prolific, out spoken members of the forum
Code name- the pinball info pinball party
 
For the kids:

Peppa pig artwork.
Plays peppa pig episodes on the LCD the moment it's switched on.
No start button.
No mechs.

6k for the standard which only includes the backbox. 10k for the CE which adds a decorative cab.

Kids will love it I tell ya, more than anything else in your shed!!
 
got to be unlicensed, so we can do what we like. it’s Uk, so should reflect the essence of our country’s dna. i’m thinking food and beer (like i normally do).
 
Always thought The Italian Job would make a good machine, so many modes with the minis, goals, targets. Michael Caine call outs. When you consider this and then Jaws, what happens in Jaws
 
Kicking Bishop Brenan mode
Rabbits Frenzy
Ah go on multiball
Milk float multiball (and you have to score x points per second to keep it going or something)

Priests in the lingerie department wizard mode

Game writes itself :D
Small Vs Far Away video mode
 
Mamma Mia with ABBA music and a chapel at the back of the playfield.

Alternatively, you could just go with my “Monsters -vs- Monster Trucks” idea. Huge roaring T-Rex mecha in the middle of the playfield that gives multiball if a kid hits it accidentally a couple of times. I’m also not too proud to nick Pat Lawlor’s funky jump ramp shot - so, a monster truck leaping over cars for more experienced players. Not sure where to put my armoured battle train, though... ;)
 
Edgelord Multiball and Backhouse Bumpers are a must.
 
If we pull our fingers out we could make more machines in 1 year than all other manufacturers combined. We just need to defraud hundreds or investors out of their pension funds.
