There are occasional things that leap out as inappropriate when I'm playing TPA... Not as in; "Elvira! Wash your mouth out, you hussy!" inappropriate, just incongruous, somehow jarring with their surroundings. Some look or sound like they belong to another table, or like they simply have no place on a pinball table at all. Others are mere artefacts of the TPA conversion. I thought it would be good to have a thread to discuss them (the alert reader will have noticed by now that most of my threads here don't have much purpose, but they seem to get funny responses, so ho hum... 
)
1) Central Park. Monkeys. Need I say more? The one with the bell, unsurprisingly, is the most noticeable. But they're all over the graphics as well. I find the little vignette in the triangle in the middle of the table particularly disturbing. Did that sort of thing happen a lot in Central Park in the 60s?
2) Centaur's 'slide whistle'. It's a dark, menacing table. Except when it plays its disconcertingly cheery "Whoooo-uuuup!" sound. I half expect it to play 'Pop goes the weasel' when I lose a ball...
3) T2's 'smiling toadstools' pop bumpers. An evil cyborg has been sent back from the future to destroy humanity, but at least the fungi are having fun...
Any more?
