So cool! This afternoon, Spooky Pinball shared a video of the production line at its Benton, Wisconsin factory. Not only did we see the usual suspects on the line - Evil Dead, Looney Tunes and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, we got to see the first video of the Company's upcoming Beetlejuice pinball machine on the line. Exciting. Last I heard, Beetlejuice isn't expected to begin shipping to customers until early 2026 but it's nice to see them getting a head start leading into that time so that they can iron out the whole production process and hit the ground running in the New Year. "As we close in on the end of the year, the production line is all sorts of colors! (And a bit of a mess😳) Evil Dead, Looney Tunes, TCM, Scooby-Doo, AND Beetlejuice all being built at the same time! They seem to come together nicer when there's Christmas music playing 🤔 What's your favorite Christmas song? #spookypinball #pinballmachine #pinball #spooky #evildead #looneytunes #scoobydoo #beetlejuice #texaschainsawmassacare" Your browser doesn't support HTML5 video.
