They got the licence till December 2014. Stern wants to make the most of it. Anyones guess to total actual sales but you can bet it is the highest selling pinball over the last 10 years.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

I always thought a premium with out the
Lower playfield and diverter ramp would be cool.
Stern were nearly there , just needs drop targets and colour changing leds.

Or maybe a good opportunity to remove the centre photo? Always thought that really let the game down.

There's a mod on pinside it's a picture of a chick with big jugs instead of the face.

I think the cash cow has finally been milked dry, surely?
Great for pinball, bad for the people who bought hoping to make a profit on this title.
Good for me who hopes to pick up a cheap used game for restoration in years to come.  *%*
Anyone selling sub $3k yet for a pro yet? I may be interested  &&
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.

Some cool additions. I like the bb speaker grill.... Awesome. The swinging bell is not a true pendulum bell like the premiums/le's. It's like the refinery mod that improves the crappy pro bell with some forward movement and small backward movement to hit the target. An improvement but it's no le bell.

Agreed.


Anything but the Angus mug would be an artwork improvement.
