Either way I was hoping this was a hoax but it looks real, only way this theme could be worse is if it was Big Buck Hunter which was another runored theme.
I'm not looking forward to this machine at all.
CSI and 24 (IMHO) were not good licenses either. I actually prefer the NBA license. I am sure it will do better than Gary's NFL pinball venture.

You sure it isn't an elaborate hoax? I mean the guys site is called "toddisbored.com"
At this point, how could it be? Unless this guy has some pretty Godlike Photoshop skills, this is definitely an actual machine. Whether or not it's an unused prototype remains to be seen

You know what I'd really like to see in a new pinball machine? An original idea for a theme, not a license. I know they have a history of license themed machines going back to the DE days and they do it to try and capture a larger market, but there's got to be a good, original idea for a pinball machine out there somewhere.

There are no new players. Most kids/teens don't even know what a pinball machine is. The only way to attract them is by having the machine "look" familiar and you get that with themed machines.
Sad but true.
