    Depends on the game and who ya ask

    For me it’s as follows

    IMDN … Prem
    TWD … Prem
    JP … Prem
    GZ … Prem
    ST … Pro
    Met … Pro
    AC / DC … Prem

    Quoted from yzfguy:

    I concur 100%. It's a proven fact that anyone who prefers the pro couldn't get a premium. I read it online!

    Well I disagree. I sold my MopLE to get a pro

    Couldn’t stand the hammer lock. I haven’t played one that works 100% if the game is set up fast like mine are

    I put lots of $$$$ in my pros anyway so they are not for everyone

    Quoted from Aurich:

    Which is why I was puzzled by people saying they don't like the extra mechanical interaction on Metallica. Anyways, not trying to beat the horse with you, if you don't like it you don't like it.
    Beyond the RGB arrows giving you good game feedback, beyond the cross being a satisfying multiball start, beyond the hammer being an awesome physical ball lock, I really like how the snake is a two way switch/scoop and you don't just go into its mouth every time. Shots that change are one of my favorite things in pinball.

    In situations like ST Aurich I had a vision of what I wanted it to look like. Gameplay was not that different but I wanted the color scheme I pick as the premium did not float my boat. Your art package was part of that

    PRO mods PREM mods
    4000 6500 Base pro I bought to average Premium price
    400. 400. ColorDmd
    175. 175 Klingon BOP mod
    25 25. Mezel explosion
    18 18 Mezel transporter
    18 18. Mezel Insignia transfuser
    200 200 Art package with translite
    18 18. Mezel spring cover
    65 65 Superbands w/colored flipper rubber
    100 100 Vengeance mod
    175 175 Stainless Speaker panel
    100 100 Shaker
    25 25 Hooked Visor
    200 25 Flashers and or Prem LEDS
    250. 250 Powdercoat to the color I want to match each art package
    50 50 Pinbits Pop and sling dress up kits
    300 0 Asteroids and ship plus shipping
    50 0 Warp ramp switch activated chaser lights
    250 70 Real work rails, metal apron and hardware, cliffys, mylar and misc
    25 25 Pincabs and mirror glazed balls
    125 125 Flipper fidelity
    ______________________________________________________________
    6526 8464. Add a few hundred more here or there for stuff I still wanna do .......
    Doing a Premium was waaaay more than I wanted to spend and have it look my way.

    Quoted from Aurich:

    I haven't made that in years (for reasons) and I still regularly get people asking me about it. I'm glad you like it!

    Love it brother !!!
