Quoted from pinmister:Here is my take on Led Zeppelin:
I relate this game to TNA in terms of layout and fun factor. It has a really simple well flowing layout(Ritchie signature style). The layout is butter smooth and the combos shots are seamless. The layout is a simple layout with little to no 'toys'. There are modes but this game is really about high scoring and keeping the ball alive as long as possible. This is not a journey game and may feel repetitive in a small collection. I relate to TNA because the simplistic rule set and layout and over the top lighting. TNA does not need a ton of fluff or toys to make it special-the gameplay, lighting and rule set make it a blast to play(same as LZ). Some people need more and want the game stuffed with toys to enjoy and LZ is not that game. One other thing that is crucial with this game is-you MUST be a big fan of Led Zeppelin. If you do not listen to Led Zeppelin-do not buy this pinball machine(many others out there for your taste).
Now Pro or Premium/LE? This is Steve Ritchies last game with Stern and the Premium/LE Magic Spinner and lighting really take the game to the next level. I recommend a Premium/LE LZ for home and would recommend the Pro for location and OP's.
You have an Avengers that I feel is repetitive and overly complicated. It is always good to have a difficult journey game in the line up but I would probably get rid of Avengers before Zombie(if you like it that much).
If you LOVE Led Zeppelin music-can't go wrong
If you are SO SO on Led Zeppelin music wait for Rush or another pin
I wouldn’t call it a journey type of game either but there sure is an awful lot to try to accomplish and it isn’t easy to do.
It is easy to understand the rule set but difficult to execute all of it.
Quoted from rolandthoms:Own LZ LE. Just got GNR LE Less is way more. Playing LZ 3x more
Smooth, satisfying shots. Purist pinball.
Best way to put it purist pinball doesn’t need the fluff. I own both as well and LZ is played far more. GNR is good too but for all the non pinball reasons, just not the best shooter.
Quoted from Wmsfan-GAP:LZ is never going to win any art accolades. In fact the game has nothing to do with the theme- Stern could’ve done any theme name on there. What it does have (prem/LE), is a really good shooting game, with some pretty cool lighting. So, if you want a good shooting game LZ is the way to go. I will take flow, over a stop and start game, just about any time.
I actually dig the art, fits the band perfectly. Their album art wasn’t exactly exciting and their videos of the band the same with exception of the celebration day concert video. Color palette reeks of vintage 1970’s, only thing missing is some smoke and stale beer aromas!
Quoted from WODKA:Never played it, but damn that repetetive Premium and LE translite/cabinet artwork is pure shite.
That is why this translite was made.

Pinstein is selling them. He is on ebay too.
Probably one of the best translite I’ve seen. Vibrant color and art matches perfectly with backlight on or off.
