Display models or playsets that just sit there looking cool are so last year, because a Lego pinball machine that actually works is on the way.
Due to launch on July 4, the space-themed Arcade Pinball Machine is a fully-functioning toy as well as something cool to put on your shelf. Rather than simply looking the part, it has a "spring-powered launcher, dual flippers, spinning bumpers and an up-and-over ramp bridge" that allows you to really play. Plus, there's a moving 'progress bar' which is an astronaut minifig slowly being reunited with an astronaut baby (?!). Is that a bit weird? Yes. But at the same time, I don't see any of the other best Lego sets including a working game.
