Got to play AS at PAPA a few times and absolutely loved it. Toybox feature and large color display are winners. I love the "dude looks like a lady" individual dancing animations as well. Good fun.

Just ordered my AS Pro today from awesome distributor Cointaker just 80 miles from me, and it will be delivered on Sunday. Really looking forward to it, after playing the game (an LE) at PAPA and reading this thread. And the manual says that the Pro weighs just 210 pounds--finally a machine that weighs less than I do!

Still have $200 in my AS budget, so I'm looking for suggestions for or against mods and protectors. Any input welcome.

Thanks. I'm considering the Laseriffic topper--I've been very happy with Joe's toppers before--but that would eat up my whole budget. Appreciate the reply.

Thanks. It's been calling me ever since I played it. The color LCD and Jacky-in-the-box are mesmerizing.

Thanks. Can someone tell me what the "remote operation" reference means in relation to the topper? Does the topper come on every time the game boots or does it have to be started separately?

Cool. Thanks!

LOL--thanks!

Great suggestions and detail--thanks. I didn't know about the air ball protector.

Now appearing in my living room. Thanks to Cointaker for a great price and to Cointaker's Derrick and Erica for free delivery and setup. My wife and I have been rockin' this game all day. We absolutely love it.

Thanks. The first time I looked at it online I thought it was too "cartoonish." Then once I played it, heard it, and saw that toybox work I was hooked. An exciting, amusing, campy pin.

Enjoy. I've had the Pro for a month now and it has not disappointed. Awesome game in every way.

Added the Stern topper to my AS Pro and I was not disappointed. Excellent quality, fully encased, and nicely integrated with gameplay. Cointaker--who I also bought the machine from--sold it to me for $375, which included shipping, Awesome and well worth it.
