Quoted from colonel_caverne:That's amazing there is not an alternative Angus artwork on acdc, it is so ugly.
So i can make a first analysis:
X-Men: worth. All the more as the $ gap seems to be the weakest compared to other games. Playfield and software are différents
Acdc: not really worth. All the more as the mini playfield is quite useless. Drop target bank versus stand up target bank can't justify the price gap. Better light show as for all premium machines
Tron: not worth. The biggest price gap as there is no premium pin. The eli ramp mod can tied LE machine. Drop target bank, recognizer moving.
Metallica: not worth. Just hammer toy added.
Star Trek: not worth. Amazing light show However on premium/LE
Walking Dead: worth. Light show, lifting ramp, crossbow
Kiss: not worth
Avengers:hawkeye ramp, minor price gap with pro.
LOTR: not worth
What about Transformers, mustang, Avatar, Rolling Stones, wrestlemania?
Uh....there's way more than "just a hammer" on Metallica.

Acdc: not really worth. All the more as the mini playfield is quite useless. Drop target bank versus stand up target bank can't justify the price gap. Better light show as for all premium machines. but angus face is so ugly.
Tron: not worth. The biggest price gap as there is no premium pin. The eli ramp mod can tied LE machine. Drop target bank, recognizer moving and a MB added on the limited edition
Metallica: worth. hammer toy added, moving cross, disappearing ball lock into coffin, snake jaw
Star Trek: not worth. Amazing light show However on premium/LE
Walking Dead: worth. Light show, lifting ramp, crossbow
Kiss: not worth
Avengers:worth. hawk eye ramp and minor price gap with pro.
LOTR: not worth. esthetic improvements
Avatar: not worth. has a powerball starting 2x scoring
Rolling Stones: not worth. has a powerball starting 2x scoring
Elvis: not worth
What about Transformers, mustang, wrestlemania?
Star Trek Premium/LE also includes a kickback, webslinger, and crashing ship, in addition to the various light show improvements.
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Kirk is ALWAYS overselling this "crashing ship" (and every other underwhelming feature on this LE).
It shakes. Big deal.
Both versions shake, dippy.
Premium/LE has a more sophisticated mech which allows the ship to drop head first is a crashed mode when defeated. It stays this way during the Victory Laps mode, then regains upright position.
It's a neat effect, and I like it. Also, it is a mechanical, not cosmetic, difference between the Pro and Premium/LE models.
Care to whine about anything else?
Quoted from swampfire:Doesn't really matter, neither version of ST has Color DMD support.
Patience, my young Padawan.
