Meteor is one of my favorite Classic Stern machines. In this particular time period, it was a FAST and addictive machine. Galaxy and Nineball were close second place. Brilliant and DESIRABLE games.
These "re-themed" games are appalling. In context - consider the asking price on similar butchered titles. If you re theme for the purpose of re theming a game to retain, then I can understand it (missing backglass or trashed playfield).
Destroying iconic games like Eight Ball for the purpose of profiteering..
