Stern, 2022Quoted from gandamack:When will be the Rush pin be rated on the top 100? This being such a niche pin, how do you think that will affect it's value over time? Personally, I think this particular pin (if it is a fun pin to play, unlike Zep) will be the next Gamestop stock.
Stop all this kind of value pumping speculation crap please.
Pinside top 100 is just a localized game to some people. It’s meaningless.
Quoted from cscmtp:I get your stance, I do, because I always say the best Rush is Fly By Night to Moving Pictures, and I do see a drop after that album, but Signals and Power Windows is still great stuff. But yeah, you can't top perfection from 74-80
Agreed.ls and Moving I like Power Windows and every album prior. With Signals and Moving pictures being some of their best work with every song being awesome quinesential Rush.
Quoted from Calgedy:Hold Your Fire is my least favorite RUSH album, Show of HANDS DOWN............although the recording of Subdivisions on that live album is wicked. Low End coming out of the beginning music verse.
Quoted from AUKraut:What are y'all hearing on delivery dates of the 1st run Pros and then LEs??
I'm hearing mid to late February for my LE here in the Northeast.

Respectfully disagree. The top 100 is no different than Becketts ratings for baseball cards.

I can only assume you've never played a Zeppelin premium/LE, otherwise this is the dumbest statement I've seen here in a while.

If it’s sold 1000 LEs and has big demand for the other models already, how is it “niche”? Pinball is niche.
Quoted from tripp:One Mod I would gladly pay for is something that covers the QR code reader on the apron of the LE.
A decal with a chain and another gear maybe?

That’s just part of Sterns now. I’m just glad they’re working the artwork around it.

So much better than how they botched GZ apron

Maybe some sort of decal in the white area to blend it in?

Yeah it pretty bad. I need to print a card to put below the IC reader. Wish they supplied an alternative with it to put in.

That wizardmod place has magnetic aprons that are pretty nice. They just snap over the top of the existing apron, covering the QR code.
I think they're in Europe, so shipping probably takes a week or two, but one possible solution. They have pretty much all the recent pins, but no Rush yet. Probably after release.

What am I missing? Looks fine.
C7C1CA67-315B-4F6C-95E3-E2E99FFE7EF0 (resized).jpegQuoted from jimwe5t:Great job Rush team! This one is special and proves how lacking GNR really is and how it shoots like a lame slow moving dog in comparison to Rush. Finally Rush has upped the ante for music pinball and has shown the world what a real pinball game looks like, with superior integration of the band. Not just a concert in a box, but a real shooters delight with mechs and interesting objectives, without being just MB after MB.
After playing mechless GNR twice the wow factor is gone and then it becomes just plain annoying to have all those lights constantly flashing in your face. RUSH on the other hand, has done the lighting so well, as to add to the game ambiance, but not take away from actually playing pinball. IMO, Rush is now the music standard reference pin, along with IMDN. Borg’s passion for this theme shines through.
LMAO. GNR is unique and nothing shoots like it. Rush is like several Borg layouts. I love them all, but come on man...
Love how you can hear the drum sound pop effects, rapid fire , as Neil played. Great implementation, thx Neil McRae for putting this up on utube.
Quoted from gandamack:Hayfarmer thx for post. Did you pick this up outta Spokane or via Nitro in BC?
Next level, hillsboro. Simply the best place! 
For those noobs to pinball or modern Stern games they ship with the music to low in the mix in my opinion . The game sounds and call outs are louder . You can adjust it so the music is equal or what ever you want. I believe it is referred to as attenuation in the game menu . It will also be odd as you turn it down in numbers to make it louder. There is also an eq that lot of folks don't know about.
Quoted from gandamack:Respectfully disagree. The top 100 is no different than Becketts ratings for baseball cards
A small group of people can pump a game to the top in days… which is why nearly every new game gets to the top 5 as all the honeymooners wet themselves over their latest buy.
It’s meaningless. Just look at some of the actual reviews…. Garbage.
Never goto the listing to make a buying decision
The Rush pin looks cool, but i doubt its a top 10 pin even with the rating pumps from fanboys. Every pin gets that especially during the honeymoon. Probably #1 for Rush fans, but after the dust clears, it will settle probably top 25 at best. Im excited fir Rush fans. Probably a fun shoot, but don't see anything earth shattering.

Agree with this. Attenuation means to reduce or weaken so you either reduce or increase the reduction. Its kinda confusing.

Meh its all subjective. Some of my favorite pins are at the bottom or below the top 100.
Quoted from insight75:Meh its all subjective. Some of my favorite pins are at the bottom or below the top 100.
I totally agree.. no real value to the ratings system.. but I do like good reviews when they are made. Some are right on..
Quoted from dozer1:There is 968 pinsiders logged in. 7091 guests. That's a lot of guests. Suppose the Rush fan base looking into pinball?
Yeah, just saw the 7000 guests, could it be a glitch ?
I really like the angle Neil McRae used on his stream, would to see an hour of Rush, with commentary, streamed this way. It really showed how many times the ramp goes up and down , ball reaction in the pops, etc.

Doesn't matter. It looks to be a good game and that's what I wanted to see, I didn't expect less from John + gang.
Rush theme will make it #1 for many buyers.

The pro one doesn’t look good unfortunately. LE looks great on Godzilla
Quoted from TeaHaus:and Rush fans have thought this forever.........here's Alex doing his acceptance
This should be a midnight madness frenzy multiball mode
After watching the Neil McRae video, I noticed there was no high pitched beeping upon the scoop ejects. Maybe I missed it it being mentioned in an earlier post, but i'm guessing the sound effect can be toggled off?
Quoted from Quicksilver1:After watching the Neil McRae video, I noticed there was no high pitched beeping upon the scoop ejects. Maybe I missed it it in an earlier post, but i'm guessing the sound effect can be toggled off?
I noticed the same thing. Also I’m loving the drums/Pop Bumpers.

I noticed that too. I also did not hear any sound effects when the spinner was hit. Maybe an older code than what was streamed?
Quoted from Hayfarmer:Next level, hillsboro. Simply the best place!
Jordan had it that quick?
Game looks good from the angle on these new videos, I like the Starman in the middle of the slings and even without the expression lighting, the colors seem to reflect nicely off the sides.

It's surprising that manufacturers haven't taken the lead in opening posts. A well planned and informative presentation in the open may benefit, not only our guests, but pinball in general. Rumor has it, that Stern is planning their own forum.
Quoted from Bundy:Anyone else noticed there are several callouts re-used from MET?
For instance: “You can have it back”, “I will give you a chance to redeem yourself.”
Avatar as well.

Heard a few others in the Deadflip stream also.
I guess Borg really liked them.
AFAIK funhouse was the first use of “You can have it back”. Nobody does it better than Rudy.
Quoted from Vespula:That video may have been a different pin / different code? No expression lighting.
The Dead Flip stream showed a Premium with the lighting upgraded. Only the LEs come with Expression Lighting standard for RUSH.
Quoted from Cobray:LMAO. GNR is unique and nothing shoots like it. Rush is like several Borg layouts. I love them all, but come on man...
There are a lot of pins that shoot crappy like GNR

That might not be a good idea. I think there is a reason why they don’t have the area around the reader filled in with designs and darker colors. The white allows the reader to see the QR code when the phone covers it up. Even though you would think a smartphone gives off enough light, the white box may be a design choice to allow it work better as almost like a reflective surface to read phones easier. This is pure speculation, but maybe there is a reason for this to be like this on all Insider kits.
Quoted from Billygrippo:Jordan had it that quick?
The video posted is a pre-production demo machine. Sounds like the first Pro models will ship out some time in February.

Those are Borg staples. Pretty sure they’re in Iron Man, too. Anyone with a Kiss or Aero care to chime in?
