■ Fallout Pinball
Although Pinball FX lists over 130 tables available to buy, there are still many tables that was previously available on Pinball FX 3 that have not made its way to the new game. This includes my personal favorite Fallout Pinball, which is STILL awesome. It still looks and plays great.

Stern Fallout Pinball

There’s no ifs, ands, or buts about it, there’s no way I have enough caps to buy the Stern Fallout Pinball. Comes in three models, Pros ($7,299), Premium ($10,699), and Limited Edition ($13,999). Of course, I would only demand the Limited Edition, which features more appealing artwork of the iconic Vault Boy… and limited to 770 units. Pre-orders for the Limited Edition already went live on September 3rd at 1pm, so by the time you’re reading this, it may have already sold out (even at that high price).

Of course, as a diehard fan of Fallout and Pinball fan, I’ve heard about this not-so-secret rumor for a long time now. I knew they were working on the pinball since the television show was a hit for Amazon Prime.

The differences between the Premium and Limited Edition are the decals and artwork. The difference between the Pro and Premium is the underground playfield that works when the Vault Blast Door… otherwise they’re all basically the same pinball game. Even though there’s no way anyone can justify the double price difference, I still want the Limited Edition. I don’t even know why I’m even debating about the price, I’m never going to own this pinball game. I guess, I can always dream.

Excerpt from Stern Pinball:

In Fallout by Stern Pinball, players are thrown into the chaotic post-apocalyptic wasteland, only to discover that the end of the world is just the beginning.

Through the chosen perspective of Lucy MacLean, The Ghoul, or Maximus, players can experience the unique set of playable side modes and features from each character while uncovering the horrors of Vault-Tec’s past, present, and future.

Featuring Vault Boy, Power Armor, Nuka-Cola, Pip-Boy, Vault Suits, and other familiar features, the pinball experience integrates the incredibly distinct aesthetics of the post-apocalyptic wasteland for unrivaled visual authenticity.

Further celebrating the iconic IP, the machines seamlessly incorporate footage from throughout seasons 1 and 2 of the TV series and content pulled directly from the Fallout video game series, along with custom callouts from renowned actor Johnny Pemberton who plays Thaddeus.

In the most ambitious game yet from the team that created Godzilla, JAWS, Jurassic Park, and King Kong, Fallout by Stern Pinball uses cutting-edge technology to immerse players in the realism of the ruined world. On the playfield, a replica Pip-Boy, created in collaboration with the WAND Co., offers a colorful interactive display that communicates key game mode information and gameplay features.

The Fat Man multi-axis pinball launcher with Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System (V.A.T.S), a combat mechanic inspired by the video game, launches balls to an upper playfield target gallery.

McFarlane Fallout

There are a couple of new McFarlane Toys’ Fallout action figures coming out this month. I’m particularly interested in the T-45B Nuka Cola Elite Edition.

You may recall that in my review of my first Elite Editon, I noted that the retail price of $60 was way too much money:

My only complaint is that it is just too expensive at $60. At that price, I’m unlikely to collect the entire line. I would love to add Lucy and the NCR Ranger to my Fallout Collection, but I don’t want to spend $120 to get them. So, for now, the T-60 may be my own figure in my Fallout Collection.

Since then, I did add Lucy Elite Edition, but only because it was discounted to $42. Even at the reduced price, I said it wasn’t worth it (let alone the original $60 asking price). When I bought the Steph Harper action figure for $11 – I realized that Lucy and Steph are the SAME figure, only with different hair and face plate. What I am trying to say is that the “Elite” branding is the same figures as McFarlane’s “regular” figures. The price difference is $60 vs $35 (nearly double the cost).

Yes, I’m keeping an eye out for a discount for the Nuka Cola armor – which is basically the same figure as their other Power Armor – just with some small modifications and different paint app. As a fan and collector, I do want to get all the different armors. I also have my eye out for Paladin Danse (coming out September 24, 2026). The chase variant to Danse is the Military Green T-45 armor. I usually find these at GameStop – but unfortunately, they closed the location near my house so it’s not convenient for me to drive to the next nearest location. Hopefully, I’ll spot them at Walmart.

Funko Fallout

I own a few Fallout figures from Funko, and have never really liked the way they looked. I know they have a certain ‘cute’ design, but I wish there was more to them. I guess the only positive is that these are reasonably priced at $15 each, but you can always find them on sale for $10. I’m not going out of my way to find them, but if I randomly see them in a retail store, sure, I’ll get the Nuka Cola girl… even though I already own a different version.
