Pinball Brothers Tease Alien Pinball

Back on October 8th, the This Week in Pinball twitter feed got a new follower – Pinball Brothers – the group that took over Heighway Pinball years ago. Over the last month and a half, they have been putting out teasers on their social media platforms. They have admittedly been a little…hard to follow at times:

However over the last week or so it became clear that it are teasing Alien Pinball:

[NOTE: we’re not even certain this is a real account, but they set up a website, Twitter account, Facebook account, Instagram account, and have been sharing things almost daily with almost no response since around October 10th…so if it is a spoof account they are persistent!]

TWIP has reached out to these Pinball Brothers for an interview but so far they are staying very tight lipped on what they’re up to – stay tuned!!
