[QUOTE="Pete, post: 291402, member: 862"] More than anything i want Indiana Jones & The Shadow. Brian Eddy only got to design 3 tables- Medieval Madness, Attack From Mars & The Shadow. all 3 hit it out of the park. you've got imagine farsight tried hard to get The Shadow and couldn't. I wonder if that was because of the cost, or because Zen partnered up with Universal prior to obtaining williams/bally and FS was blocked from future deals with universal. In any case Zen just gave us a Universal 2 pack, and had already given us Universal properties in the past... so this is just wishful thinking but I would assume in their recent talks to get CFTBL and MB, that the Shadow has already been mentioned, possibly already purchased in a multi property one lump deal. Universal also owns the Flinstones Movie. Flintstones is a great table but allot of people who buy the flintstones table purchase available mod kits to make it look based on the cartoon and not the movie. i think everyone wishes that one was released based on the cartoon.

I think that's the one retheme no one would be up in arms about... except you know that one dude who probably played it allot back in the day and wanted that exact nostalgia. NBA fastbreak is a great one, im not even big into sports and i love it. sadly there's is NO WAY then can secure that one in a profitable manner without modification. 2k games paid 1.1 billion for the NBA license and has it for 7 years. but all it would take is to drop the NBA logo, remove the team names from the dmd and art, and to remove any likeness of real life players.
