Nobody "knows" but if you like Star Wars you should be happy.  8)

If that's true, I guess I'd better strat saving my money for two NIB games. Stern is pretty tight lipped about upcoming titles. We need Wikileaks  ;D

Isn't Elvira on the horizon?

Guardians would be amazing.. but i figure if they were going that route we'd see it by now.. or at least have it announced as why miss the movie tie-in hype?

I'm pretty sure they said Elvira will be a 2018 game. SW makes sense on so many levels.

Wouldn't there be a licensing issue with Williams/Bally for Elvira? Why fight it?
Roll out SW then tool up for GOTG to roll out with Guardians of the Galaxy III release. (Oh yes it's coming...)
It should be a killer pin!

Elvira owns her own name/likeness/whatever which I'm sure she just licensed to Midway for the 2 pins.. certainly that had an expiration so there should be no problems making a 3rd game assuming its original and isn't a remake of EATME or SS at which point they might have to clear things (and obviously I think it would be 100% original if Stern makes it)

Elvira is a done deal. Announced at Texas pinball festival. Same team of Elvira, Freres, and Nordman. But have heard Star Wars is getting ready to announce

It warms my heart to know that Batman naming of pins  WH20 and EATME have now become universally accepted verbiage in the Pinball community years later. \m/

Guardians would be an excellent mix of both. Plus, it'd be a way for Stern to put more of those RCT trolls on playfields.
