Summary

Transformers praised for art, code, layout, and mechs; host worries leaked hype may set unrealistic expectations.

Orbital Lelbert (host of Poor Man's Pinball Podcast) delivers a solo episode ranking five positive aspects and one negative aspect of Stern's upcoming Transformers pinball machine. He praises the Generation 1 artwork, Elizabeth Gieske code work, the Megatron mech design, the playfield layout attributed to designer Elliot Eismin, and argues that Stern has regained momentum with original designs. The single negative concern is uncertainty about whether unrevealed features (like Optimus Prime's mechanic and the Megatron cannon's functionality) will live up to expectations set by the leaked images.
