I'm sure they contacted Paramount about it, possibly at the same time as inquiries for Addams Family. But Paramount was only the distributor, LucasFilm held the rights. And yeah, that sale to Disney just as TPA got going meant nothing could even be thought of happening until the dust settled. Meanwhile Zen had already had a deal with LucasFilm for those original 9 Star Wars tables, so they never had to fight to get Disney on the phone. And yet even with that contact, why hasn't Zen tried making an original Indy table? Probably because it involves movie rights, Ford's likeness and or voice (SW owns the actor's images for whatever use because of initial contract, sure he didn't sign the same for Indy), and that score which Zen obviously hasn't been paying for as of late.No, that table is a white whale. If or when someone snatches up the WMS/Bally license, if they wanted to make a definitive splash into relevance, that'd be the table to do it with.</blockquote>
