Quoted from Av8:

Pro is faster so its my personal pref. for game play. Premium is just gorgeous. Im selling one but cant decide.

Av8: Wow. Is the Pro's faster gameplay really THAT much better (to you) to justify even a 2nd thought of which one to keep? If it's an economic decision, I can understand that. But if $$$ isn't part of the equation, having played both, the slightly faster speed you get on the Pro from having standups vs drops doesn't come close to simply having the swinging bell, imho. Not to mention all the other stuff.

Quoted from DugFreez:

I wouldn't want the ball cross over from the left ramp to the right. It's a bit of an eye sore, it displaces the right lightning bolt and what is really so hard about hitting the right ramp to load the cannon?

+1. While it's not as big of an eye sore in person as it looked in the pics, it's still an aesthetic detriment. And gameplay-wise, also agree: there are times when I DON'T want to load the cannon. In competition there were even times when the player chose NOT to shoot at the targets on ball 3 when there was a point gap to overcome that was considerably larger than the cannon shot, and he was one shot away from qualifying another mb. Even better option would have been to not have the L ramp feed the cannon.

If the R ramp wasn't easily accessible from BOTH flippers, maybe I could understand the crossover path.

ACDC Prem/LE owners: Do the service menu adjustments provide an option to turn off the diverter from L ramp feeding to R ramp? If yes, then perhaps it's an easy mod to simply remove the metal diverter eye sore??
