Those 80's European Animation ones would be perfect imo. New to most of the pinball market with a hardcore niche. Nice artwork and the music is on par with Black Knight 2000 and such

All of them are japanese productions, except Ulysse 31 and Les Mystérieuses Cités D'or which were french-japanese co-productions (and it was awesome too).

These stuff was massively broadcasted in Europe (mainly in France and Italia), for a young people audience (because in Europe -like in US by the way-, animated series = children), although it was most of the time not childish at all.

Those were the days.

Americans have missed all of that, but hey, you still had a few cool stuff, like this:

King Kong
Godzilla (the Sega Pinball table doesn't count)
Jaws
McDonaldland
David Bowie
Evil Dead/Army of Darkness (not that original since the guy above me listed it. But it would make a good theme)
Village People
Fat Albert & The Cosby Kids
Alien

Hate to be 'that guy', but there is already a King Kong. But don't worry, the only reason I know is because I remember SYT talking about playing one.

Also, I believe Alien is in the works right now. From the same guys that made Predator. So I'm not trying to say that I know everything, cause I don't even remember who made Predator. Or even whether they are done with Alien or not.

Yeah, I actually remembered about the King Kong table after I posted that. However, I believe that they only made a few prototypes, so I left it. And I didn't even know there was a Predator table. Sounds pretty cool.

Yes, Predator. Very cool theme. The table stayed true to the rated R theme. The problem is there's too much junk in the way of seeing the ball. Mostly the ramps. Only half of the playfield is actually visible, and I'm not kidding. Don't get me wrong, these guys did a great job with the theme. There's a pretty cool gimmick where the ramps will 'glow' different colors, as far as the gameplay and sounds, I'll have to get back to you on that...

Predator vs Aliens? Now we're talkin

Wile E. Coyote & The Roadunner - Remember all products came from the Acme Company

I always think of Warner Bros cartoons when driving past the Acme lofts in downtown Denver. Awesome old water tower with Acme written huge on its side.

Check it out though! Roadrunner:

Thanks Snorzel - That's a pretty cool pin.

Another lesson learned. Google to see if your imaginary pin actually exists. "Face Palm"

I agree it would be great - but it could never happen, for real. Mel Brooks personally agreed with George Lucas never to create any (real) merchandise for Space Balls, it's partly what allowed him to get away with blatantly spoofing Star Wars. That's why one of the big jokes is that Yoda and the Dinks do merchandising.
