Alright kids, now that the pics have been released, let's try and figure out what is missing from the pro vs. the LE. Aside from the armor, back glass and shaker let the game begin. I don't see a diverter ramp, so looks like that is out of the question. I also thought that all new machines would have LEDs, so that might explain the price increase. We know they will have a drop target exclusion, but will it be for the Tomb stone as well as the side targets? My guess is this pro conversion will be like X-Men and not have too much variation. If that's the case, I applaud Stern!

Everything made of metal

The pics have not been releases. What we have is a white wood and a ton of speculation.

Pro track list is entirely from St. Anger.

The pro will feature music performed by “Blackened” the Un-official Metallica cover band.

Kidding aside, here’s what I posted in the other thread yesterday

(1) Left side lane – has a rear standup target and a rollover switch half way up.
(2) FUEL Target bank (4 standup targets)
(3) Left orbit with spinner
(4) Left shot to cross toy with standup targets on each side of entrance. It also looks like the LE version may feature a row of 3 drop targets in front of a magnet.
(5) Left Ramp
(6) Center toy (electric chair – with standup target in the base of the chair). It looks like an additional magnet is positioned in front of the chair several inches down for the LE.
(7) Captive ball shoot. Looks like the LE will have a magnet/coil mech that grabs the ball and pulls it through the playfield (like TOTAN). Ball drops into a metal trough and feeds the right up-kicker. The hammer toy comes down over the ball, making it look like the ball is smashed through the playfield.
(8) Snake scoop – my guess is that the head goes up and down to grant or deny access.
(9) Right Ramp
(10) Right orbit with spinner
(11) Right scoop/up-kicker (has 2 LEDs over the entrance).

Also, I think the metal ramps will be standard.

Like x-men really it has a ton of extras, spinning disk, popup night crawlers, moving ramp, 3 color GI LEDs. Those are major moving parts. That can't be added aftermarket.

I kind of wonder if the guy in the electric chair will not nove on the pro, kind of like the bell on AC/DC. They might just use flashing lights on it or something. Maybe plastic ramps. I just feel like there will need to be some significant difference to justify the price difference. I personally wish they would go with the model of Pro and LE's, where the LE is mainly cosmetic differences instead of gameplay differences.
