I nearly pissed myself when I saw the Pro, it looks like Bugs Bunny Birthday Bash.
Then I saw the LE and thought, F me is someone tripping hard t Stern or what
ha ha ha
 the fans won't be nappy me thinks.

Exactly my thoughts - Bugs Bunny... Led Zeppelin are my second favorite band growing up and I would LOVE a Led Zeppelin pinball - but this is atrocious. The LE reminds me of those horrible Home Machines Stern brought out. They have one of the best licences, and only Stern could stuff it up this bad. Looks like they rushed it out for the Christmas period as Gunners was coming out. 2020 finishes off like it started...

Stern can only work with art approved by LED Zepplin

They should have hired an artist to "patch" the artwork in a manner befitting to the game. Even a boring black machine with the "Led Zeppelin" logo would have been better. I did hear that similar argument with the KISS licence and the "artist" used the incorrect bass guitar on the backglass, yet had permission to use the original art from the 1978 machine. I agree that they are limited in what they can and cannot use, but it is the way it is presented that lets down games with successful license.

One of the biggest songs of all time does not appear on the songlist - interesting..
