The game looks amazing. I'm not a Labyrinth fan by any means. Never watched the movie and have no interest in the movie, but MAN, what a pin. Interested to see what else this company comes up with. Would love them to put their own spin on themes that have already been done instead of trying to find new themes that have never been done, or how about Futurama!

That definitely looks pretty neat. My first thought when they said Labyrinth was moving walls of some sort, but it looks like they at least have a couple of diverters and single drop targets to change up the way things move. Getting the music is a huge plus too-not sure you could do a game like this without the Magic Dance song (or at least, that would be a big omission). Having some sort of ball lock that used the contact juggling stuff from the movie would have been neat to see, but very difficult to engineer, which means I'll bet someone at least tried it. That topper does look like it fills out the package well though, and at $1k, for much less than a Stern topper. The "Should you Need Us" BG actually looks better than giant David Bowie face, and I'm kind of surprised that wasn't the default.
I really hope these guys are successful with this game, and I really hope they can make something cool. Spooky proved that the small startup works, but even then it sounds like their games are very much enthusiast games, and hands-on repair enthusiast games at that. Not going to jump in blind, but I also hope to be somewhere that I can play this at some point. Any word on whether P1 is going to distribute them?

I asked P1 yesterday and they said they hadn't had any discussions with the manufacturer at this point.

O.M.G.!!!
Johnny Fraser-Allen is involved!!!
This P.O.S. ran a multi-million dollar Kickstarter in the tabletop gaming world and screwed everybody around.
It delivered 3+ years late and was a complete disaster. He also refused to provide any information, updates or answer any questions regarding it and delivered a substandard product.
Absolute scumbag.
Hopefully he is at Pin Expo, so I can insult him to his face.
Google Hagglethorn Hollow- you can see where the pins sculpts come from.

Hell yeah, flight of the navigator pin should be next!
And I find it interesting how many people have said their wife needs this pin. I've seen multiple people on pinside say the same. I guess this movie was a big hit with the ladies? My GF also likes this movie and I've never seen it.
@pinballjah: Agreed, the call outs are cringe-worthy.
@ Corrie: I also find it interesting how so many (Pinsiders) have indicated they’re buying it for their wives. Why? It’s a really mediocre flick with Bowie at his worst. Man, this is an epic artist who deserves his own pin highlighting his incredible early work.
Will be very interesting to see the staying power on this.
Regardless, an impressive first release by a new company.
Could be so much worse considering Turner Pinball’s disastrous release.
