Quoted from pduffy:Yes it will. Already asked and ordered
Would be nice if you could add it at the factory so it's installed when you get it.

What was the upcharge? Sounds cool
I know 5 Rush Superfans and they all ordered an LE.
I'm happy for those guys as they have all dreamed about a Rush pin for years !
Quoted from JMCFAN:What was the upcharge? Sounds cool
Didn't get official invoice yet but same as charge for Led Zep light upgrade on Stern site. I believe $475ish area.
Quoted from cdnpinbacon:Missing the point. Most people have no idea what an inukshuck represents. Not a hidden cap tip.
Missing the point. Rush fans know exactly what this is. 
I'm not a fan of Zeppelin or Rush from a music standpoint, but this pin appears to be leaps and bounds better than Zeppelin from a pinball players standpoint. Layout and artwork look pretty awesome!
Quoted from Av8:Looking for Rush LE. I'll pay 500usd finders fee. I'm a super fan.
Quoted from Black_Knight:It’s the test for echo album cover not some mysterious Canadian hat tip.
shows my knowledge of Rush lol... I also don't watch Hockey so maybe I should just keep out of these discussions haha
It's really sad that so many of the distribs and authorized Stern dealers are gauging folks right from the get go. I was able to find about a half dozen places that would sell me an LE, and 4 of them wanted over $13K for one. I told them no thanks and found one at MSRP...just call around guys! Good luck, this game looks awesome. Gameroon Goodies looks good considering you get free shipping
WOW. The greatest news ever today... THE PRO LOOKS PHENOMENOL! A few things.. the games appears to have been designed at the same time as GNR & LZ being the spinner, ball lock, charge, lighting, etc. There's a ball lock at the bottom of the playfield for the Premium/LE similar to COMA in GNR which I passed on with the CE in GNR and don't need, my GNR LE is fine without it. No need for the Time machine in the upper left, there's a lot of space there and I'm confident they'll be an awesome mod made for it! The expression lighting is left out on the Premium and can likely be added to it if preferred, however, I have it on my LZ LE so I'm WAY more interested in the code/call outs for this game with Geddy, Alex & Ed. What a great day for pinball & my wallet! In for a Pro, the first time since Tron & GB since not missing much at all!! There's my early review too.
Just made deposit the on LE at MSRP! Was in on this one no matter what being a Rush fan whose name is actually Tom Sawyer, but the layout looks great and it has a lot of features I love in a pin - 3rd flipper, physical ball lock, diverter ramp. Love captive ball shots too and while it doesn't have one the LE has the pop ups behind the drops to create a captive ball. And the fact it has Geddy and Alex doing voice work plus so many multiballs, couldn't pass up. Will be my first LE!
Beyond excited!

Touche' ...I guess Ohio will have a large order of games..can we break down the states for orders?
Buffalo please order as many as possible.

Pretty much the same take on it. Will go pro for this one, like the art better also.
Shout out to Ed Robertson from Ontario Canada Canada is proud of you too Ed and I miss your travel show!
Cheers!
Quoted from Anony:shows my knowledge of Rush lol... I also don't watch Hockey so maybe I should just keep out of these discussions haha
Well your age could account for not knowing rush trivia, but not sure how you escape Hockey in Ontario.
Hope you like the game and start listening!
Quoted from BackFlipper:Okay modders, who is going to make some clothes dryers and a vending machine for my game? Or some chicken rotisseries? Or this keyboard?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
YES!!
Definitely in for these toys. 
Quoted from V8haha:Anyone else being charged shipping now? I’ve never been charged shipping in the past. They jacked up Godzilla by 700 bucks and now charging shipping which I’m guessing is another $500 bucks. So rush will be $1200 more then mando?!? Jeez it’s getting hard to keep putting new games on location.
Yeah I’ve been charged $100 the last few times.

shipping is always there - its just a question of if you are paying for it line item or not
Quoted from kool1:Pretty much the same take on it. Will go pro for this one, like the art better also.
Absolutely! I LOVE the art too! The fun comic art totally matches the band's personality and it's realistic at the same time. LOVE the owl on the translite! Will look incredible in the game room.

Considering the percentage amount that shipping has gone up in the last year, you’re not getting hosed, the distro’s just aren’t eating the several hundred dollars out of their profit. Just cause it was “free” on previous pins, doesn’t mean it was “free”.
Has anyone seen a matrix which shows the features of Pro, Premium, LE? Having trouble gleaning this from the video, and I think someone mentioned that some LE features were shown in the Pro section of the video.
Thanks!
Quoted from Jediturtle:I do know Tom Graf. And I am 100% sure that you are correct. In fact I haven't heard from him since the reveal, so I fear his head may have actually exploded...
Hahahaha! Very happy for Tom and all the other Rush fans out there. Great to see so much involvement from the band and adding Ed Robertson to the design process is a genius move. Passion breeds excellence, and Stern will reap the benefits.

It doesn't have the matrix but there is a feature video for both the Pro and the Premium/LE on Stern's site...

Hopefully they have some canned speech from Neil as well. I believe he wrote a lot of Rush's lyrics.
I’m torn between Pro and Pre mainly due to art and the one item that’s jumping out at me as a game play advantage for the PRE is the VUK to the third ramp vs the dead end target.
Anyone else feeling this way?
Anybody else wondering if they went half-assed on the premium art to push people into thinking of getting an LE since they were making 1000 of them?
If that's the case, that move was likely only necessary in Australia. 
Quoted from Dexter:How come no one is discussing the LE backglass and two naked dudes?
This is why I ordered the premium. I could’ve lived with one naked dude…not two.
Quoted from Psw757:Anyone else feeling this way?
Yup. Art is subjective, but the VUK and extra ramp seem like the only meaningful gameplay difference. Pro looks really solid.
Quoted from Gorgar123:Yup. Art is subjective, but the VUK and extra ramp seem like the only meaningful gameplay difference. Pro looks really solid.
I love the physical ball lock and the capture ball behind the drops. That said, I've never gone Premium or LE before so with this theme it was a no brainer. But I agree the Pro looks like a really great machine.
Quoted from La4s:Have they announced who is the lead programmer?
Tim Sexton I believe. He was on LZ as well.
Quoted from Gorgar123:Yup. Art is subjective, but the VUK and extra ramp seem like the only meaningful gameplay difference. Pro looks really solid.
Depends on what happens when time machine is hit while ramp is down and difference ball lock/captive ball behind drops makes instead of stand up target.
Quoted from Gryszzz:It all began here
This is my anthem!!!!
