Spooky Pinball - Evil Dead

[J85M]

At least it’s not two themes from one playfield layout. As a collector that doesn’t do it for me.

So far it looks promising. They need to look at TWD code and work a theme using similar ruleset..

Stern will be doing a remaster of TWD if the reaction and sales (stateside) of Metallica are anything to go by.

Let’s leave Spooky to do their own thing.

Lets go

Wow ! Looks awesome.

topper looks awesome

Some of the call outs are great. “Ready, aim, **** them up!”

That’s one of the most loaded pins of recent times!
Double ball launch to represent the shotgun, moving hand & trap doors and one of the best MB locks. I’m loving it.

 

[Kenny Taylor]

Too gruesome for our house. Although I’d have it!

 

[Tucks]

Only see the original ED and the latest one but will go back and watch the others.

Now that's what you call theme integration!!

 

[Andydn]

Can’t fit a wide body in the garage, this will have to go in the lounge!

 

[McFly88]

Wow... I have a couple of young ones so too scary for the house... Just need to work on that pin cabin of mine next year!

 

[Tucks]

Might just by the topper to stick on top of the wardrobe.

My honest thoughts so far. Call-outs seem a bit lackluster. Under playfield seems a missed opportunity. Could they not do something like Creech where it looks like a hand or something inside the cabinet. The hand comes at you or gives
you the finger!

Look at all the things they’ve got right though! Far out weighs anything you might not like. Call outs will be great - original movie quotes & newly recorded stuff. I can’t find one negative thing about this…. other than if it’s a wide body

 

[Kenny Taylor]

A second screen under playfield I mean. These small lower playfields do nothing..

 

[kevlar]

Toys look awesome. Don't want to be negative, I was ready to jump in but layout.....not blowing me away. Lower playfield? lower playfields have a bad reputation, this one does nothing to change peoples minds, just 2 standups? seriously? why bother?

They have got plenty right. Topper is a great touch, not as good as Alice or Labyrinth in my view.

Crickey didn’t notice that. Only two targets..

 

[Big Phil]

Confessional time

 

[Mozie]

Looks great, more mechs than 99 percent of recent releases, tape is a nice touch too and the shooter/broomstick loader. How does it shoot is the question I thought haloween looked good too

 

[Kenny Taylor]

Still bloody good and it’s Evil Dead. You certainly won’t see Stern making pins like this..

[Kenny Taylor]

I like the look of Halloween too but those hedges down the side were a bit naff. Let’s hope they are a bit more creative with the naming of multiballs. Hedge, 2 etc..lol

 

[Kenny Taylor]

Actually the lower playfield could have had the bash toy hand pop up. I’d remove the trap doors next to the ramps, those pop-ups are not liked on GB. I found them to be a pain and often got air-balls off them..

[johnwhitfield]

That looks pretty darn great.

 

[Marvello]

Can't fault the price for all you get, though doesn't include the topper this time.

*Just watched the featurette, it does come with a flat plastic topper, with the sculpted topper as an option.

 

[Andydn]

One of the features in a ‘full scale physical cabin’!! That’s my new pin room sorted

“Theme integration” you can’t have Evil Dead without a lower playfield “basement”, according to a certain podcaster who has been at the Spooky Factory, Spooky did it for the theme integration but didn’t want to blow a tonne of the budget on it.

Not even the same mech!

These are physical moulded pop up targets just like the troll mechs which worked in MM for over 3 decades.

GB had flimsy drop targets that bent back when hit, launching the ball up in the air.
