Looks great imo and all models are nice looking. The premium art really fits the playfield and back panel the best. With some different t molding and brass armor the premium will look sick.

Quoted from frankmac:Still scratching my head as to how this happens.
It seems so simple...
Um yeah, he's on the side of the cabinet, bursting out of the name of the band.
I'm loving the Egyptian art of the premium. They are going to sell a ton. Swap that yellow t-molding for some gold (I already have some ready to go!) and it'll look fantastic!

Gonna need some gold legs too! Will look awesome.

The yellow over blue is what has me.
Quoted from dgoett:Way too much "Egypt". Only 1 of their 16 studio albums was based on Egypt. I think the backboard and middle of the playfield is almost too much.
Also - The Trooper - Maiden's most iconic Eddie, it's represented ANYWHERE on the premium.
And Metallica only had 1 album about puppets
Quoted from trilamb:Have there ever been three more different looking art packages? I feel like most others are slight variations. These look like 3 different tables! (but only one of them actually matches the playfield).
AC/DC - VERY different. More than this, even.

Prolly do mine in this finish, i did this for a customer and i got alot left
I really like the premium artwork. I think it goes best with the rest of the game. I don't like the color scheme of the LE. The pro looks good, but again, the premium seems to go with the rest of the game the best.
Can't decide.
Pro has the most authentic looking artwork. Less cartoony. Bit more badass.
But LE and Premium more colorful, more pop.
I'm glad I got in on the LE, but the Premium may be my favorite art package of the three. They're all pretty bad ass.

Make for a great version for people who don't give much of a crap about Iron Maiden. It's just sort of a "Curse of the Pharaoh" game.. Iron who?

I love Iron Maiden. Hard. Powerslave is my favorite album.
This is my ideal version.

Mercyful Fate retheme incoming.

Well sure. Iron Maiden fans are going to like all of them. I just mean for people who AREN'T fans of the band, the mostly egyptian game gives you kind of a secondary theme to latch on to. :shrug:

(raises hand) Me! You are describing *me*. Not a big fan, but after listening to the songs from the game a bunch, don't hate them either. And I *love* this art package, I think you hit the nail right on the head - it has something for the fans, and something for the non-fans alike.
SUPER excited about getting my Premium, that is for damned sure.
Quoted from kpg:This is the captive ball for the sarcophagus lock.
It registers sometimes, sometimes not. The design is pretty terrible, in my opinion. The plastic is super thin - doesn't feel like a commercial part at all.
It literally rocks back and forth in this plastic "cup" like plastic piece. Not sure who designed it but they should rethink this thing.
Have you seriously never looked at a pop bumper before? The plastic spoon has been in use for DECADES
I was half hoping to love the Premium, half hoping I wouldn't. Wouldn't because I don't really want to spend the money.
I dunno, kinda in between. The yellow t-molding is awful, switch it to black and it's much better, and that's easy, and the art looks good. Just something not entirely grabbing me, and I think it's the whole comic book over album cover vibe in general. Just the nature of the beast, so to speak.
I like it, Zombie Yeti did great work, just nitpicky back of my head not sure feeling about it.
I'm gonna wait until I can see it in person, feeling zero rush about anything.
Not the blue Power Slave look I was hoping for but Damn that looks great. With the exception of the yellow T-molding. Wish they would have used those WWELE gold on this one instead of the GOTG LE. Gotta go GOLD!!!
I found my armor color

Quoted from frankmac:Is this an angry bird Iron Maiden .
You might want to google 'horus'
But ironically, there is an angry birds cross-over set of characters in Legacy of the Beast game
Quoted from frankmac:Is this an angry bird Iron Maiden .
nah it's a main character from the comic book that Iron Maiden produced and are basing their entire current tour on right now.
Love the premium translite. The side art is much better then I expected.
Zombie Yeti is killing it. Oh and his interview on head 2 head podcast was fantastic, check it out. Very likeable character who loves pinball.
Up the Irons - best version of Iron Maiden pinball -> all three models are winners. Way to go Stern, you've created something for everybody.
Wow! Looks fantastic! I smell the #1 selling Stern of all time here. Congrats to all of you patient and not-so patient pinballers.
last artwork comments from me...
Pro= loved it from first sight . 5k with shaker is the best deal of all 3.
LE= Took me some time to start to like it.. Now I am used to it.
Premium= I was shocked to see it.. I was thinking blue. I do like the 3d style Eddie on the side. like all things it will grow on me..
looks like there is something for everyone.. Nice work ZY...
Boy, tough crowd...that's why it's called a Forum I guess. Personally I think the Premiuim is sweet. Have to admit as a Maiden fan I was hoping for more of the Powerslave look but we all have to remember the game is based more off the mobile game and comic. Keep the expectations realistic....we ARE getting an Iron Maiden pinball that we all agree is an awesome game- and have been desperately wanting for years. All models look great and hats off to Stern for the variety. Can't wait to get mine.
I had talked myself into springing for a Premium--but that is just too much of an Egyptian overload for me. The Trooper cab art gives it more of a balance. I'm happy that others really like it, but I think I'm going Pro...
Quoted from GorillaBiscuits:Here's black trim for you yellow haters out there. Definitely makes the artwork pop nicer.
Makes a world of difference.....for the better. The yellow was a fail. I'll be changing mine to black for certain.

Thumbs up!
Autch !!! That artwork could have been so much better , so glad I went for LE for extra bucks
Pro is better choice instead of Premium
Stern better hire more staff. This will sell A TON.
But I agree, black trim looks so much better than the yellow. Easy fix though.
Premium was worth the wait.
