Stern Rolling Stones. Yes, it's cheap and plasticy....but it's pretty much the same type of gameplay as Iron Man & Tron - fast, simple, fun. Mick on a stick is the butt of jokes, but a really nicely programmed moving target that randomizes the game greatly as the ball's always bouncing off the front and back. Music is fun and fits pinball action well.

Quoted from tslayer71:

Cool - thanks! If it ever came up locally I'd consider it. I love the Stones....

Differences between Stones Pro & LE:

-Chrome trim
-Mirrored backglass
-Shaker
-Silver outlines/highlights on playfield
-Extra buttons to control "U.K. Style" ball save posts.
-White ball for random 2x scoring
-Hidden magnets that make things wacky during Multiball (like Addams "The Power")
-Extra song not on Pro

Quoted from Psw757:

Magnets that come into play during two multiball modes get crazy ball action.

Oh yeah, forgot about that!

Quoted from Ive:

Yep - people got hung up on Mick on a Stick as if it was a bad thing , but as you say its a very well used moving target. His position changes according to different modes - once you get a handle on this it makes for very interesting play.

Mick is a great moving toy, far superior to Slimer on GB. Sure Slimer looks better, but hitting Slimer isn't that satisfying since he's so floppy, and his positioning is irrelevant to gameplay, making his side-to-side movement a total waste on the Prem/LE. Mick's positions actually matter and correspond to inserts.
