If all is right with the world, and it isn't, then this should be STERN's lowest selling title of the 21st century...
I am the first guy to bash WOZ as a theme but at least Judy Garland could actually sing and posessed REAL talent.
A bunch of adolescents back in the day made this turd of a group famous by buying their albums with funds from a weekly allowance and saved up high school lunch money....
Now there's a demographic that knows true talent when they see it...

#2 They also have far more Exceptional songs / albums to listen to than Metallica.
#3 How about a Michael Jackson pin?

1 - Fair point. I think I'm just excited that they attempted hand drawn art vs. screen print. In mind its a step in the right direction regardless of the inappropriate application to this theme.
2 - We'll have to agree to disagree. There are some good Megadeth songs but no where near the discography of Metallica. Not even close.
3 - Please stop with this insane talk. That would be the one pin I'd have no problem taking an axe to.
And to smartbomb's comments regarding low sales....I think there is a thread on Pinside suggesting they are already sold out on any preorders? My guess is it will be a hit. The target market for pinball are guys who listened to Metallica growing up..........and probably havent grown up much since ;D

The LEs sold out within a couple of hours... after only showing a few concept photos and a video from the lead singer. People stood at the gates throwing bundles of cash at Stern's front door. :P

Kind of a broad statement, don't ya' think?

Wow, so you guys are more interested in the political and corporate side of games? I love playing pinball and any new game is exciting to see.
We are at a great moment where there are numerous companys, large and smal,l producing new games. It's a win-win for everyone!
I would never say something like "I wouldn't drop a quarter in that", just because I don't agree with the theme or license or who was better to the music industry 20 years ago.....That is just depriving yourself of fun and keeping pinball down.
I am stoked for this game to hit pubs near me!
Metal up your ass
