I am not into there must but that listed a quick batch, and just the names of some of the songs would allow for some creativity. Will have watch on the big computer and screen shot some images as lots of rapid flicks of graphics, layout and toys.

Good on stern for producing another pin

PinballMike who is doing the US Creature LCD has come up with a theory of shots, something to compare against.

"Just a guess, but here are the shots as I see them:

1) Left side lane – has a rear standup target and a rollover switch half way up.
2) Target bank (4 standup targets)
3) Left orbit with spinner
4) Left shot to cross toy with standup targets on each side of entrance. It also looks like the LE version may feature a row of 3 drop targets in front of a saucer.
5) Left ramp
6) Center toy (electric chair – with standup target in the base of the chair). It looks like an additional magnet is positioned in front of the chair several inches down for the LE.
7) Captive ball shoot. Looks like the LE will have a magnet/coil mech that grabs the ball and pulls it through the playfield (like TOTAN). Ball drops into a metal trough and feeds the right up-kicker. The hammer toy comes down over the ball, making it look like the ball is smashed through the playfield.
 Snake scoop – my guess is that the head goes up and down to grant or deny access.
9) Right ramp
10) Right orbit with spinner
11) Right scoop/up-kicker (has 2 LEDs over the enterance).

A lot of stuff for a fan layout."

OH YEAH! Time to start saving for Metallica....Xmas for me perhaps? Too many good pinball machines coming out!

Metallica fans is it a good song list? Me not being a huge fan so what you guys reckon?

pf looks promising.

Looking good. I love their old stuff, so I'm hoping there's plenty of the early albums on the machine. As a band, I like Metallica more than AC/DC. But if there is an Iron Maiden pinball, I'll be looking at that.

Metallica is a great choice by Stern, and I might be tempted if their build quality improves and the code is finished 100%. Looking good so far !

Not good at all..........(for the wallet that is)..

Well if they stick with metal ramps, non photoshopped graphics and the ACDC sound system I think this might be a winner...

Glad to see Stern releasing another music/band themed game for 2013!!
