U.K.-based Heighway Pinball will hold an exclusive pinball launch party at the Twin Peaks Restaurant in Wheeling, Ill., on Oct. 13 to debut their new wide-body pin: Alien.
Based on the popular sci-fi film, the pin offers features that pay homage to that movie and its sequels. From jumping face-huggers on each slingshot and a ball-eating xenomorph toy to playfield magnets and an inset 10.1″ playfield LCD screen, Heighway spokesmen believe the game is set to make fans of the movie and pin fans alike drool.
The launch party will play host to competitions, prizes, a meet-and-greet with the Alien team, free food, drinks and more. To get on the guest list, contact aimee@heighwaypinball.com. The pin is expected to be shipping this year, for more information visit the company’s website here.
