The Walking Dead

A full-length zombie-themed pinball playfield photographed under glass, seen at a slight angle in a dark cabinet. The palette is dominated by blood red, ash grey-brown, dirty bone white and amber firelight. Down the centre-left runs a lane of grey cobblestone street leading to a burning town skyline at the very top: silhouetted rooftops, church spires and a windmill under a smoke-filled yellow-orange sky, with a red barn-like building and a blood-smeared ground texture beneath. A huge snarling zombie head with matted grey hair and bared teeth rises in the upper right quadrant, lit by red and green lamps. White-on-black target labels on tombstones read BARN, CDC, SIEGE, ARENA and HORDE, with a red-and-yellow 2X spot in the middle. A six-drop target bank marked HORDE sits mid-lower, showing white silhouettes of a rifle, a knife, a shovel, a pickaxe, a syringe and a hammer. Below it, round white inserts numbered 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 4, 3, 2, 1 surround a LAST MAN STANDING plaque, and two yellow rubber flippers with black rubber rings sit at the bottom. Cartoon zombie crowds, coffins, tombstones and rifles fill every remaining corner, and a long instruction card heads the apron.

A zombie-apocalypse themed electro-mechanical playfield seen under a scratched glass with green LED reflections. The layout is a wide grey road running up the middle of a mottled rust-brown and pink-tan field. Centre stage is a large tan muscular zombie figure, half-reclining and crawling, its head thrown back with mouth open, straddling the road. Behind it stand two raised ball guides and a red-brick police station facade with double doors, a lamp post and a small US-style flag. A massive pale-grey walker statue looms over the middle. Round white inserts with black numerals 5, 20, 30, 40, 50, 100 arc below centre, and a five-panel drop-target bank spells H O R D E in black block letters on white with red outlines, under a black-on-orange plate reading HORDE. Printed lettering is scattered everywhere: BARN, GAS, SIEGE, 2X, POLICE, PEW, and score numerals. Two flippers with black rubber and yellow-and-orange striped flipper bats sit at the bottom centre behind a sloped metal apron carrying a yellow instruction card and a yellow price card.

A square backglass printed as a grimy, blood-spattered photographic composite. The whole panel is overlaid with a close-up chain-link fence of galvanised wire, criss-crossing the entire image, with a dark iron fence post and a barbed-wire strand running across the upper right. Behind the mesh, a pale decaying zombie face with matted hair, sunken glowing orange eyes and bared teeth dominates the centre-right. Around it crowd at least six more rotting figures pressed against the fence: a grey-skinned head at top left, a bloodied screaming man at top centre-right, a snarling man in a torn dark jacket at upper right, two more ghouls along the right edge, and a partially visible face at lower left. Behind the fence is a wall of heavy dried and wet blood-red smears. On the left, stacked block lettering reads THE WALKING DEAD in huge cracked bone-white capitals, sitting above a mustard-yellow rectangle containing the black lowercase logo amc. A small red-and-white pinball maker's wordmark badge sits in the bottom right corner. Dominant colours: dark brown-black, blood red, bone white, dull yellow.

Painted, horror-comic style backglass in a grimy red, black and sickly green palette. Upper left carries a huge distressed white block-letter title, THE above WALKING above DEAD, the letters chipped and stained with red-brown splatter. Centre-left is a lunging rotting zombie head with exposed jawbone, yellowed teeth and one blank white eye, wearing khaki army fatigues, a chest harness and a shoulder patch, lunging toward the viewer with one clawed hand outstretched. Upper centre a muscular dark-skinned woman with braided black hair, hoop earrings, a nose stud and a gold necklace, in a brown crop top and grey trousers, throwing a katana overhead while a green laser sight line crosses her chest, an assault rifle and riot shield on her back. Lower right-centre a bearded, scarred white man in an olive uniform aims a silver semi-automatic pistol with a blood-smeared hand, shouting; a further armed man in a cap and black vest stands at far right. Behind them, through red haze, a chain-link fence, dead trees, floating debris, a watchtower with a lit lamp, and a small antlered skeleton. Painterly, airbrushed illustration with heavy black outlines.

A rectangular backglass transom print showing a horde of decaying zombies pressed behind a chain-link fence. Dominating the centre-left is the title 'THE WALKING DEAD' in huge distressed off-white block capitals, with the small word 'THE' in a white box above the W, the whole logo sitting over a vertical blood-red spray that runs down the artwork like a torn red stripe. Beneath the title sits a small cream-coloured square badge containing the lowercase black letters 'amc'. The right-hand half is dominated by a single large zombie head, three-quarter view, greenish-grey and mottled with raw flesh and blood, sunken orange-tinged eyes and a bared yellowed grin of uneven teeth. Behind and around it are at least six further zombies: one upper left with grey decayed face and open mouth, one upper right with slicked-back dark hair and a snarling face, two more upper right at the edge, one mid-right with a staring open mouth, and one lower left reaching up. Pale blue-grey wire and twisted mesh strands crisscross diagonally over the entire picture, and a fine diamond-pattern chain-link fence fills the background. Colours are dominated by sickly green-grey, dark brown, blood red and bone white. Style is a gritty, desaturated photographic-composite horror illustration with heavy contrast and grime.

A landscape-format backglass with a distressed horror collage on a deep blood-red and black background. A domed red clock face sits top centre, crossed by white scratched and cracked-glass lines radiating from a shatter point just right of centre. Nine or ten zombie faces crowd the edges: a snarling woman upper left with bared teeth and dark eye sockets, a shambling man in a torn dark top behind her, a slack-mouthed man at top right, a gaunt screaming man on the right edge with a bloodied forehead, a gurning man at lower left with wide white eyes and bared teeth, and a large dishevelled young man with a beard and stubble dominating the centre-right, head tilted. On the right, a pale woman with wide staring eyes and grey-green mottled skin faces forward. Bottom centre is a torso in a dark checked shirt, one hand raised. The title 'THE WALKING DEAD' appears in the upper left in cracked, weathered white block capitals with heavy black outline, with 'amc' in black lowercase inside a white rounded rectangle beneath it. A red-and-white oval sponsor logo with a small silver ball sits in the bottom right corner. A single line of tiny legal text runs along the bottom left edge, unreadable at this resolution. No score reels or display windows appear on the artwork.
