Kineticist’s take
Walking Dead Remastered criticized for overly bright art; Beetlejuice hailed as Spooky's best topper execution.
Synopsis
Ron and Bruce discuss the Walking Dead Remastered pinball game from Stern, criticizing its bright artwork as tonally mismatched to the show's dark aesthetic, though praising expression lights on rails and hardware fixes. They also cover Spooky's Beetlejuice Collector's Edition, which sold out rapidly at $9,999 with a highly-praised 60-pound topper, and note the controversial 'spooky speak' feature locked behind topper purchase. Brief mention of X-Men accessories leak and David Fix visiting Rochester Pinball Collective.
