*%*I've played the le and pro considerably. I ordered a premium then after a bit of a think I rang Bruce and changed to a pro and couldn't be happier. The le is amazing but I saved coin, added mods that wanted and the pro is a great looking machine.

Couldn't disagree more with thinking the pro looks cheap and unfinished (no new pin is or looks cheap!).They are the same game minus some bling which I added anyway. A lot of people share your views Adam that the pro is a very good package for the money. I was fortunate to be able to have afforded the Premium and still got the pro based on value and playability.



totally agree. I always go for the Pro because it plays faster and is designed to be more random than the other models play wise (according to Gary Stern).
I like a hard game, not a slightly easier one. Each to their own, but the PRO has been value for money for the last 4 or more titles all day long.

forgot to add, I would buy a premium or a LE in a heartbeat as well if I had the room. more the merrier, but no more room.lol

LE and Premium of all the latest versions are also EXCELLENT. Like Petes (Gorgars) line up, very very very nice, or Cruisermans machines (Scotts).

If it lights up, its a pinball, and any pinball is the ducks nuts ofcourse.lol

Well the pro is slightly more random with the kickout. Don't know if that's a good thing but it is what it is.

Played the LE today and really enjoyed it even with the disco lights.

I had played the pro before and it was only ok( just felt so cheap and nasty!) but the LE is a very nice piece of kit indeed and easily the preferred option.

Shame the pf was so filthy.

I am not a trek fan by any means but this is one very sweet game.

Wouldn't mind owning one.

STLE was never on my radar as a potential game to own until I saw it in the flesh and played it .Now I really want one.

The game plays fast and has some nice flow but is pretty damn boring.
This game is nearly as bad as Avengers...nearly but not quite and it is also the 2nd ugliest Stern pro behind acdc and the angus explosion.
Stern pins are getting worse, the price for them keeps going up and suckers keep the hype train on track.
 :lol



Looks like time changes opinion. Thank the guys who have the guts to buy NIB for having any of these in Oz.

Star Trek was always a great game despite the minority naysayers. lol
Some people would stay negative even if they won the lotto. Lol

The Pro has also been a sweet looking machine espescially with those beautiful blue colours.
Its a beautiful game to look at and play, in both Pro or Premium or LE trim.
