All versions look great to me. I decided on an LE. Can’t wait!

Thought I'd weigh in on Munsters. Overall, I'm really enjoying it and it seems like its going to be a great game to own.
Got my LE last week. Unboxing and setup went well, a couple little things to comment on:
1) left flipper became loose after a few games, and I had to tighten it. First time I tightened it, it became loose again after game or two, so I did a trick that usually works, I took the flipper completely out, and used 100 sand paper vertically on the shaft to create some friction. Reinstalled and tightened and all is good.
2) I found it odd that Stern sends the machine with no balls in the lower playfield. You have to remove a component to install the 2 balls. Have your 1/4 inch nut driver ready. The unusual thing in my machine is that Stern left one ball in the lower playfield by mistake, so I only had to add one ball. No big deal.
3) I found that the LED's are too bright. I changed the GI and the insert brightness to 80%, and the backbox to 75% when playing. flashers also down to 75%. Just my preference. I play in a dimly lit room.
4) At first I thought the lower playfield felt a little like a cheap toy pinball machine. But after many plays, I find it fun and challenging. You actually have to aim and hit orbits, and certain shots and then have a hurry up for multiball. Well done.
5) If anybody thinks the game is too easy, I'm surprised. Side drains and centers happen often enough, and you can set many features to make it more difficult to progress. So if it's too easy, leave ball save off, and make more hits required to start modes.
6) I just did the .96 update and the whole machine just seems a little better and I like the instructional video in the attract mode.
7) I really like the soundtrack, not just the Munsters theme song, but all the '60's sounding surf type music. Very fitting and and fun.
8) As you learn what is going on, the game does a pretty good job of showing you and telling you where you should be shooting, that is, except the zap button, which I haven't read up on, but I've not yet understood why it is there. I'm sure I'll learn soon.
9) I lowered the power of the lower playfield flippers. They seemed way to strong, the ball was flying everywhere. Much better.
10) Not sure about the shaker importance. I don't love shaker's , but I set mine to minimal, and it seems good.
Good job Stern!
