WTFInteresting playfield test video
, so he takes a big hammer to the playfield, it causes damage. He then takes a chisel to it, it causes damage. What are they trying to tell us?

Yeah, It demonstrates the ink/art/ clear doesn’t lift from the wood.
The wood needs to come off before that occurs.
Looks positive.

OK, but showing damage on a playfield isn't a positive look no matter how it was caused.
I'd be more impressed if they'd hooked a rig up like Haggis did with balls rolling around and being pelted onto the playfield continuously for days on end.

No it’s Alien 3 that was set in the all male penal colony located on Fiorina 161.
Resurrection (Alien4) was set on the Military Science vessel the USM Auriga.
I was talking about this one mate, which is definitely 4;
"I quite liked the one with the big white gormless cross-breed alien who thought Ripley was his auntie"

You might be the first person I’ve heard say they liked the newborn, at least we didn’t get the concept design that was basically a white Alien with human lips that thing was so bad.
This is all getting rather confusing! Gonzo likes Ripley's niece. I'm not a fan although I know the design has a following among a subset of geeks.
Also should add I'm part of the there are only 2 Alien films fraternity.
My favourite one was when the camouflage lizard with the dreadlocks hunted down the Dutch guy with the facepack in the Eden Project (Aliens 6 I think?)

WTF
That the playfield will likely dimple
That is a regular occurrence in my house, bloody cats. if it’s not the PF it’s as if they finger painting my invisiglass
directly through you? VAT invoice??Anyone interested in purchasing Alien, please get in touch.
All sorted and official, Pinball Bazaar have been appointed master distributor for the UK for Alien and Pinball Brothers.

What board set etc are they using this time round?

Well. That's interesting..
It has to be said. Remember the history of those involved before getting too excited.

The board is called Razorback. What that means, it’s do spec and full details are yet to be released.
Appreciate the comments of concern @Arv and @PBrookfield - we have spoken at length on Alien, how to service it, support it, etc. New manufacturers, existing manufacturers need that support mechanism. We have great comms with PINBROS, and a commitment to spares stock and support. Meaning we can support from day 1.
It is going to be a PC based system that links to smaller 'node' type boards.
Martin on Pinball news has posted details.

What could possibly go wrong!
Got to say im not overly impressed that pinball brothers are going with an unknown distributor in the UK. The likes of pinball Heaven with its established support and financial status, or even some of the smaller guys like home leisure or games room etc who are established would be a much better choice for PB
No offense to James and i guess all the usual suspects were either already bitten or not interested. Signing up a totally unknown (other than on here really) to be your main distributor speaks volumes to me...
Good luck James, but i think you are going to need it unfortuanetly

It kind of speaks volumes... Maybe no one else wanted to distribute them?
Could all end up very bad
Just to put you guys at rest, Phil has been involved as a consultant for Pinball Bazaar with this and was a big draw to get Pinball Brothers involved with the Pinball Bazaar over other companies.
We have done a lot of work to make this right, there's been enough of things ending in tiers, we don't want any tears.

Great news, I assume we now chase you to get the funds the brothers ripped off from some of us on here?
