Pinball Mod Talk: Episode 31 (Part 1, skip to part 2 for the MODS!)

Video

Summary

Mod Couple discusses 2025 mods, DXP closure, Spooky's cautious growth, and Pokemon's operator-focused appeal.

Rob and Dave from In Before the Lock return for episode 31 after a hiatus, discussing 2025 pinball mods and industry news. Key topics include production updates on the The MOD Couple expanding team and facility move, the Harry Potter topper mod competition, DXP's dissolution and Melvin's future projects, Spooky's conservative production strategy for Beetlejuice, and Pokemon pinball's strong LE demand driven by operator interest and new audience acquisition rather than hardcore collectors.

From the creator

Join Rob from The Electric Playground and Davey from Stumblor Pinball as they delve into the seedy underbelly of the pinball mod scene on their fortnightly (ish) live stream “In Before the Lock”. Had some technical difficulties, see Part 2 for the mods!
