Quoted from J85M:jespo_19 said:why is everyone saying the le's are the only ones to consider? the premiums have all the same in game features and toys without special cabinet trim and a couple other non game changing upgrades. i have no clue what the difference is in price but i think a premium ac/dc might still be a good option to save $.
I was just about to type and ask the same thing, to me the premium is the new model to buy I couldn't care less about special trim I just want all the toys and a fully featured playfield as intended, stern can keep their special trims and backglasses aslong as they give me a loaded playfield as originally intended, so no more LE's for me premium from here on out.
Keep in mind that "Premium" model is gonna cost you north of $6,000. And frankly, I don't see much beyond what they were putting in $4k pins just a few short years ago. The price difference between the Pro and Premium is much greater than between Premium and LE. The few hundred extra dollars might be worth it for the additional features (e.g. installed shaker motor) but that is predicated on the Premium being worth the price.
