WHAT WOULD U RATHER HAVE ???
« on: April 18, 2012, 10:26:31 PM »
Just for the fun of it, what would you rather have in your collection to KEEP...

3 x Brand New in Box PRO models - Stern (different titles ofcourse) OR

2 X Brand New in Box LE models - Stern (must be different titles - ie - u cant chose 2 x ac/dc titles, must be 3 different titles)

DO U GO FOR THE 3 NEW PINS at Pro level, or only 2 games at LE level  !@# !@# !@# !@# !@# choices, choices...

no, i was discussing it with my brother cause he likes collecting pinballs with me as well. He said he reckons the answer would be 70 percent of people would pick the 3 pins over the 2, I said lets ask the guys on AP !   ^^^

no problems, just that you didn't put your choice in.

I would go 3 x pro's myself.

I would pick the 3 x PRO myself.  The PRO models play very fast and are designed to be harder to get bigger scores on.

Haven't played Stern's Avatar, Ironman, nor Tron....but have had a couple of plays on the Transformer LE.
Kind of like it, so this and an ACDC pro.

Don't know what the go is with that lower playfield on the ACDC LE - are you meant to hit targets or loop the ball to light up the inserts??

If I had the choice I would go 3 pro pinballs, advantage one extra machine to play, LE's are just overpriced at over $9k.
Pinballs in my collection Elvira, Stern Grand Prix, Bally Corvette, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Judge Dredd, Black Rose and Data East Guns n Roses.

Hard call....would depend on the games. For me Transformers LE is WAY better than the pro but Tron (except for wow factor), ACDC, Avatar and others i find the Pros just as good.

But i feel i will be more of a quality over quantity pinball collector as i can't see me ever having more than 2-5 pinballs at any one time so i will go with the 2 LE's  ^^^
