Paris
After playing the pro everyday for one month , really enjoyed the premium , even better , Many shots , fast pin , great flow
Old school photoshop artwork ( remember Stern older era : 24h , Game of Thrones...) But the gameplay is great !
I like the rules and atmosphere , and never get bored !
Scored 892m on location ( wide gap ) losing 2 balls very quickly (

Jaws (Pro) Stern, 2024
After 2 hours in a row without getting bored at all , really liked this pin ( as all the Keith Elwin should i say ) , scored 494 M
0.86 early code but plenty of things to do already , tight interesting shots , really great flow , fast and fun game , amazing gameplay as always ( and i also love the Bally Williams and JJP different gameplay )
Even 2 ball multi ball are intense , i play pinball everyday , Godzilla , Foo fighters , Venom and Elvira are my favorites , Jaws may be the next one even if it is not a beautiful pin like these ones
Already a top 10 Stern , but not a top 5
Dont like the backglass and the artwork , not my favorite theme ( hoping for Matrix , Akira ,Dragon Ball , Dune , John Wick , Mad Max , Harry Potter , Slayer , Deep Purple , Black Sabbath , Motorhead ,, the Boys ) but i dig the old school atmosphere and vidéos
Great job !)
Edit : played another two hours , still loving it , scored 806m , Can t wait to play the premium

James Bond 007 (Pro) Stern, 2022
Played the pro on location with wide outlanes more than 20 hours , scoring 841 millions , long ball time ( i play pinball at least 1 hour everyday for 15 years and used to play in tournaments so i have a decent level )
I m surprised it s a good and fun Stern ( but far from a top 5 Stern ) , even with very early and incomplete code 0.87 , i like the playfield ,nice ramps , nice multiball , old school James Bond atmosphere ( my favorite recent Stern i still play with great pleasure are Foo fighters , iron Maiden, Godzilla , Mandalorian , Jurassic Park , Avengers, Deadpool and Elvira house of Horrors )

Rush (Pro) Stern, 2022
After a few days , nice honest and enjoyable Stern , better than Led Zeppelin ( who feels too empty ), but nothing really new , just good basic gameplay , rules ,
Don t like artwork and videos
Great flow , fun ramps and multiball , fast pin with many interesting shots , i really like playing it but wouldn t want one at home ( prefer a Godzilla ! )
I Really still like playing Metallica , Ac/Dc , Led Zeppelin ,the Beatles and Iron Maiden ( Aerosmith , Rolling stones , Elvis and Kiss ...not so much !) , i m a fan of these bands for a very long Time ( and i have many of their electric guitars ) but for me Rush is the good musical pin from Stern ( and i m not a rush fan at all even if their music is good !)
I would love a Slayer , Deep Purple or Pink Floyd the wall pin ...)
So nice Job mr Borg and thanks

Led Zeppelin (Pro) Stern, 2020
i m a huge Led Zep fan and i like musical pinballs ( this one is way better than Ac/DC , Kiss and Aerosmith in my opinion )
it s okay to play it on location , it s really fun , but i would never buy one Nib , mostly because of an average layout ( lack of originality and too empty )
the pros :
fast pin with excellent Steve Ritchie flow
Plenty of nice multiballs
can shoot all 3 ramps backhanded
Nice rules version 1.05
Great music
the cons :
3rd flipper is almost useless, what a shame
Very long shots , and playfield feels empty ( nothing in the middle , wide open , some people won t like it )
Lacks a good toy and inspiration
I play it every day on location on holidays more than 1 hour without getting bored ( next to an Avengers and a Mandalorian ) ,and i m really enjoying it
But i m sorry to say i m a bit disappointed , what a great theme wasted on an average ( but good ) game , could have been so much better

The Mandalorian (Pro) Stern, 2021
Great and fun Stern , i like the theme , videos , music ,lighting and artwork ,
interesting shots , and rules are good
Mini playfield is surprisingly fun
layout is okay ( not perfect ) even if there is some lost space in the upper left of the playfield
other con on pro model : plastic ramps impeding your view
already played it 3 hours in a row , then another 3 hours the day after without being bored at all , I now play at least 1 hour everyday on location near my house : very fast and enjoyable pin
Gameplay is as good as my favorites Stern ( Deadpool , Avengers , Ninja Turtles , Jurassik Park , Star Wars , Stranger Things )

Avengers: Infinity Quest (pro) Stern, 2020
another great Stern , love the flow , easier shots than Turtles or Jurassik Park , fast and fun game , like the art and music , interesting rules , just hope animations will improve
Even Thor 2 multiball is nice to play
Hope i can play the LE one day with inverted ramp
Best score on 0.92 version 503 Millions
In my Stern wish list with Elvira , Batman66 and Mandalorian
Edit : After dozen of hours , still enjoying it !)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Pro) Stern, 2020
Great game , fast , beautiful , fun , interesting shots , nice flow , would love to own one
Thanks Stern for all these recent great games ( Deadpool , Jurassik Park , Iron Maiden , Stranger Things )
Just one serious problem on the pinball i played several hours for days : too often the flippers are being blocked for 1 looonng second , sometimes during multi ball , don t know if it is a physical problem or if it can be solved by software ( problem on 1.04 and 1.10 versions )

Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory (Standard) Jersey Jack, 2019

Stranger Things (Pro) Stern, 2019
Nice Stern , but i prefer the old Brian Eddy s games ( MM and Afm ) or the recent Stern like Deadpool , Jurassik Park , Iron Maiden
Central toy is ok ( some airballs due to the ramp ) i like the flow the ramps and the multiballs
No difficult shots , doesnt seem too deep , i like the TV show but would not buy this pin however it s great to play on location ( would rather buy an Elvira !)
Surely a top 15 Stern , perhaps not in my top 10 Stern ( so many good Stern now )

Alien (Heighway Pinball) Heighway Pinball, 2017
after 2 hours i like it , not fast as a got or star wars ( that i love ) , very different slower wide body feeling , excellent theme and ambiance , like the videos on the big screen , some difficult "x men/tron" shots with upper flippers , a good pin ( lot better and original than guardians of galaxy or aerosmith for example )

Game Of Thrones (Pro) Stern, 2015
Good pin , fast , difficult , complex deep rules ( you can choose your house ) people can t judge this pin just after playing it less than one hour
reminds me the living adventure and story feeling i a with the lord

WWE Wrestlemania (Pro) Stern, 2015
boring , mini playfield is lame without any fun , no god flow , played it several times , more than 3 hours , never met any player who liked it
theme could have been fun , for example i like the wwf royal rumble old school style pin

X-Men (Pro) Stern, 2012
i love this beautiful pin , played it more than 15 hours ( not in a row ! )
In my top 8 Stern ( with Lord Spiderman AC/DC Metallica Transformers Tron Simpson ) and i owned a Lord and a Simpson
Nice playfield artwork
Fun multiball many difficult shots solid stern perhaps better than AC/DC ( i like it too but sometimes unfair )
Beautiful pin and not boring like Batman Indy or Pirates for example
However i think the wolverine toy is too big and takes too much place on the left part of the playfield

Transformers (Pro) Stern, 2011
played it more than 50 hours and i still really enjoy it : not fan of the theme but this pin is really nice =)
Not ugly like too many Stern ( 24H CSI, Big Buck Hunter, World Poker Tour,Rolling Stones, Wheel of Fortune and so many more )
Very fun multiballs , very fast pin
I do prefer the Lord of the Rings (i own it ) from the same creator ( George Gomez " Mr Monster Bash" ) but i enjoy playing this pin more than Batman Avatar Iron Man or even Tron
A good stern

Shrek Stern, 2008
nice averge stern
played it more than 50 hours
nice them and artwork
many playfield has too often problems ( shots too weak to take ramp , or you lose ball once you take the ramp with too much power ) so the many playfield is not a good idea , plus it kills the flow
in 2016 i prefer GOT , Kiss , aC/DC , Lord , Metallica or Spiderman
