View down onto a brightly lit playfield in a dark cabinet, showing the lower deck, apron and part of the backbox. The lower third is dominated by two maroon-outlined triangular plastics flanking a central apron: the left carries a large painted portrait of a young woman with short brown hair in a cream-and-pink 1980s patterned top gazing up left; the right carries a red-and-white card with a QR code. Between the slingshots sit a round orange SHOOT AGAIN button and a white plate reading ALL CONTENT RATED. The playfield is a symmetrical fan of twenty-plus small round inserts in red, blue, yellow and orange arranged in radiating arcs, with a column of black lettered lane targets in the upper centre reading TRAP, WHIFF, BANK, LEFT, CENTRE and RIGHT. Painted artwork shows a pale 1980s American town street: a light sedan, a police cruiser, a chain-link fence, telephone wires and faces of teenagers. Clear ramps and chrome wireforms sweep up both sides to a raised upper playfield washed in magenta and blue LED light. A red HELLFIRE sign sits at upper left. Dominant colours: deep purple, crimson, cyan, black.

Full description

Illuminated playfield shot from above with the glass open, glowing blue and magenta LED strips, a black background and a printed scene. The lower two-thirds carry a symmetrical fan of round and shield-shaped translucent inserts, lit magenta and white, reading DEMOGORGON, HAWKINS POWER and MIND FLARE. In the painted artwork a tall ragged vertical tear of red and orange light splits the field, flanked by a row of four large portrait busts: a man in a red-and-white check shirt, a woman in a patterned jacket, a young woman with light hair and a red top, and a dark-haired man. Below them sit a cream 1980s estate car and a pale blue sedan on a two-lane road. A demonic clawed face in profile reaches up the left side, and a boy's face with a bright light on his chin appears at the lower left. The upper playfield shows a suburban house with a lit upstairs window, a metal fence and gate, four red round lamps in a row, and two metal wireform ramps curving down both flanks. Two white-bordered flippers, a round SHOOT AGAIN sticker and a yellow card reading NETFLIX STRANGER THINGS sit on the apron below.

Full description

A licensed television tie-in backglass, full-bleed painted artwork with no playfield or cabinet visible and no border frame. Four large child faces dominate the upper two-thirds: a dark-haired girl at left holding a chunky brick-and-walkie-talkie telephone handset with an aerial, a short bowl-cut boy dead centre with blood trickling from one nostril, a boy in a pink-and-white trucker cap to his right, and a Black boy at far right turning his head with his mouth open. Below the centre boy a huge pale open hand reaches forward from the right edge. The palette is magenta, purple and cyan: pink-magenta smoke across the top, electric blue-white glow across the bottom half. At lower left a clawed creature is outlined in jagged blue-white lightning; small silhouetted figures with torch beams walk along a road at bottom centre, and cyclists and a receding streetlamp row sit on the right. A red neon-style serif logo is centred at the top under a red wordmark. A small black-box warning label sits bottom centre, a red-and-white brand badge bottom left, and a tiny copyright line bottom right.
