I rank them as:
#1 Overpriced

Some of them are obviously much better than others but the prices they want for them are all ridiculous IMO

I don’t typically go for add on toppers but I have to admit, the KISS one is pretty cool. I wish they would have done a matching translite that didn’t have the logo on it.

The Ghostbusters topper is the most epic.

I only like TWD, BM66 SLE, and GOT. Probably in that order.

I cannot believe anyone would consider the GB topper having any position on that list but the last position + a Twinkie.

It's so bad, IMHO.

GOT LE Is best

Batman and Robin is my favorite. It triggers something in my brain. Takes me straight back to my 8yr old self, sitting on the floor watching the show.

The Walking Dead - A tank full of heads anywhere else in the house would be super creepy but perfect as a pinball topper.

KISS - I am not a huge fan but it is so nostalgic I want to hang it on the wall behind the bar.

To each their own. As an Ecto-1 enthusiast, it's fantastic to see in action.

Definitely BM66 1st, but I’d put KISS 2nd and GOT 3rd.

Totally agree. There is so much more they could do (and have done) with the GB topper. Hopefully if there is a GB code update, it includes some topper integration. Wish they would have motorized the red airhorn to modulate 45 degrees to the left and right; would have been pretty cool.

This is the only topper I have on any of my 5 Stern pins. Stern Tops Tournament Kit. It cost a lot less than $400-$500 and I like it a lot.

The Beatles topper is the only one required IMO, as I like my pinball machines to be of similar height, and it adds additional beauty to an already attractive machine

I love the look. From an aesthetic perspective, the GB topper is pretty dead on. From a game play integrated perspective it leaves a lot to be desired unfortunately.
