Quoted from drsfmd:Every one of the Stern band-themed machines, with the slightly possible exception of Metallica.
You want a Taylor Swift pin 
? 
I think the Sterns band pins currently fall under the nostalgia category, not the too late category.
HOWEVER, I think Stern needs a Tom Petty pinball and... because of his very unfortunate death... if they don't have it soon then it will be too late.
Quoted from o-din:Nostalgia means longing for the past. Not dwelling in it.
I think building $6k - $10k monuments to something that happened 30-40 years ago when it could have been done at that time or any time since then, is more like way too late.
I'm going with "wistful affection for the past" as my nostalgia definition. Or, as an example, 50 year old with discretionary money will buy these band pins because it reminds them of great times from their youth --- nostalgia.
I agree with you in that, for someone who doesn't give a donkey about the band, these band pins are well past their prime.
