Yeah, well I'm in the 50-60 age bracket.
I was brought up on the Stones, I'm easily seduced by lots of colours, flashing lights, sounds, music and the whole frenetic pinball gamut . . . .

BUT

IMHO This effort looks about as attractive as a prolapsed vagina.

No idea what a "prolapsed vagina" is and too afraid to google it, but sh*t that was funny anyway!!

Its not as bad as some say.

It is very ROLLING STONES recognisable so I actually dont mind it. It is very colourful and modern.

* If the music on this pinball is great when cranked up, it might just sell real well and surprise everyone. BUT wait to the LE version, which will be a secret for the first 6 months til sales slow down, then the LE better version may hit the charts.lol

I think the machine looks ok !  !@#

Theres just no "impact" on this game... it doesnt draw me in to make me want to drop a coin or two. This theme was slammed from the start... i thought it could have been done well and maybe a real classic.... but wheres the "classic"?   Its just a big ugly box that flips a ball.... its just so..... bloody ordinary

They are only interested in feedback from geriatric pinball players, so opinions from younger collectors and players is ignored !

The only way Stern will learn is when operators complain about the empty cashboxes.

I didnt think any operators had seen a full cashbox in a pinball machine since the early 90's.

They certainly wont see any full ones with the Rolling Stones unless it is put in a english pub whilst a tour buss of 70 yr old blue rinse geryatrics stops for soup at lunch.lol

I think it doesnt look like a bad machine but because they are the only big company they are taking advantage of it and going backwards! It just doesnt fit with all the others they have done since they started again in 2001

So looks like it has 1 feature toy ,2 ramps don't know about magnets ?
You could add to this , a couple of extra interactive toys and a new theme and your there .   

I can also bet that the next Stern will step up to mark ( or will get better anyway) might have been too late for the RD to do any changes on this one .

One ramp shot (or the player is a one trick pony) and an annoying Mick Jagger plastic. Even though it is a proto, not much will change for the production model.

Sad times ahead if Stern thinks this pinball will be a winner.
