The Led Zeppelin pinball machines will be available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition (LE) models.
Formed in London in 1968, Led Zeppelin consisted of vocalist Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page, bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones, and drummer John Bonham. Together they became one of the best-selling bands with estimated record sales of 300 million units worldwide. In 1995 Led Zeppelin was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for their innovative and influential impact on the entire music industry.
In this high energy rock and roll pinball concert experience, pinball and music are fused together. Players are transported back to Led Zeppelin’s early days and tour the world from 1968-1980. As if players were members of the band playing its music, their play updates game features at the start of each verse and chorus of ten iconic Led Zeppelin songs:
• Good Times Bad Times
• Whole Lotta Love
• The Song Remains the Same
• Rock and Roll
• Trampled Under Foot
• Ramble On
• Kashmir
• Immigrant Song

Quoted from swinks:...
For the games below I am struggling to find official press release articles that show the MSRP - so any help would be much appreciated as on Stern's page shows the re-run press release price and Pinball Database lacks some MSRP.
.October / 2003 / The Lord of the Rings / Pro / $
...
The HUO LoTR I picked up came with an original receipt that says $3,900. I suspect that's probably the MSRP: date is the same month it was released.

CHICAGO, IL – May 11, 2021 –Stern Pinball, Inc., announces a new line of pinball machines inspired by the Emmy award-winning Star Wars™ series, The Mandalorian, streaming only on Disney+. These new pinball machines are available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition (LE) models now.
The story of The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Galactic Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. The series follows the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy, far from the authority of the New Republic.
In this action-packed pinball quest, players are transported to a galaxy far, far away as they play as the Mandalorian, teaming up with key allies and protecting Grogu, while battling dangerous enemies and forces across their journey.
“Star Wars is timeless and our players have enjoyed every pinball machine reimagined by the iconic space saga,” said Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc. “Stern’s new pinball machine, inspired by The Mandalorian, continues that tradition with an engaging and exciting story for an entirely new generation of fans around the world. Collaborating with Lucasfilm, we have brought all of the suspense, excitement, and action from the Star Wars galaxy into a one-of-a-kind pinball adventure perfect for any location or home gameroom.”
Prepare for battle on the gravity-changing, rotating Encounter upper mini playfield available on the Premium and Limited Edition models. This innovative, motorized rotating playfield is packed with six stand-up targets, lights, and two full-size flippers for high intensity pinball action.
Watch out for ambushes! Like the Mandalorian seen in the series, players can be ambushed by enemy forces. A dynamic inner loop shot activates an up/down horseshoe scoop ramp for fast, repeatable precision shooting, creating tense experiences on the Premium and Limited Edition models.
Players can navigate their way to multiball mayhem by hitting a unique hanging uplift target attached to a custom molded Razor Crest ship. Success in hitting the target qualifies a center ramp shot on the Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition models.
Features of The Mandalorian¬-inspired pinball machines include a large custom sculpture of Grogu, authentic video and audio from seasons one and two, and exclusive custom speech performed by actor Carl Weathers (Greef Karga). The game includes the iconic title theme song by Ludwig Göransson and stunning hand-drawn artwork by Randy Martinez, one of today’s most popular comic artists.
Only 750 limited-edition machines will be available. The limited edition version includes an exclusive full color mirrored backglass inspired by Beskar armor, iconic custom cabinet artwork, custom high gloss powder-coated pinball armor, a custom designer autographed bottom arch, exclusive inside art blades, upgraded audio system, anti-reflection pinball playfield glass, shaker motor, a sequentially numbered plaque, and Certifcate of Authenticity.

CHICAGO, IL – September 14, 2021 – Stern Pinball, Inc. and Toho International, Inc., the subsidiary of the Japanese entertainment studio Toho Co., Ltd, announce a new line of pinball machines based on the iconic Toho film franchise featuring the King of the Monsters, Godzilla! The Godzilla pinball machines are available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition (LE) models.
Godzilla is the longest running film franchise created by Toho, with thirty-two films produced since 1954. The popularity of the films have made Godzilla one of the most recognizable symbols in pop culture worldwide. In addition to numerous accolades and cinematic awards for film, music, and special effects, the Godzilla film series and licensed characters have generated over $1 billion in merchandise sales around the world.
In this monster-packed pinball adventure, players become Godzilla! The evil aliens, the Xiliens, use mind control rays to take control of the monsters King Ghidorah, Gigan, Megalon, Ebirah, and Titanosaurus. The Xiliens are demanding all of Earth’s resources. Godzilla and its allies, Mothra, Rodan, and Anguirus, battle the Xilien invasion with the goal of conquering Mechagodzilla to become King of the Monsters!
Chaos and destruction ensue on the playfield with Godzilla multiball, started by shooting one of the various shots in and through the centrally located skyscraper. In the Premium and LE models, a motor actuates the skyscraper, diverting balls through each of its five stories as it collapses, ultimately locking three balls on its roof. The Premium/LE playfield also features a collapsing bridge ramp. This animated breakaway ramp is guarded by a custom molded Godzilla and can divert pinballs back to the flipper or directly onto the playfield during Bridge Attack multiball.
On the Premium and LE models, Mechagodzilla features a motorized three-bank target set which rotates to reveal a spinner and jump ramp. Players will engage the Kaiju in battle by launching pinballs with the jump ramp and bashing the magnetic ball catch on its chest to start Mechagodzilla multiball.
All models of Godzilla pinball machines feature an innovative “Magna Grab” magnetic newton ball, capable of catching pinballs from five different shot paths, including off the plunge. This device can also divert pinballs to set up shots from the upper left flipper. The game also includes the iconic title song “Godzilla” by Blue Oyster Cult, stunning hand-drawn artwork by Zombie Yeti, intricate wireform ramps, three spinning targets (Heat Ray, Mechagodzilla, and Monster Rampage), three flippers, three “powerline” themed stand-up targets and a UFO pop pumper. The game highlights video and audio from ten* Toho Showa Era Godzilla films to create a one-of-a-kind immersive Godzilla pinball experience.
Godzilla pinball machines also debut Stern’s Insider Connected system, which includes a QR code reader on the bottom arch that enables players to interact with the game and this new network in a variety of ways. Stern Insider Connected provides new entertainment and player engagement features and an operator focused tool set to drive location play and remotely manage every aspect of the machines. Insider Connected goes live with the launch of Godzilla, with the full scope of features scheduled for roll out over the next year.
Only 1,000 LE machines will be available. The LE version includes an exclusive full color mirrored backglass inspired by Mechagodzilla, iconic custom cabinet artwork, custom high gloss metallic silver powder-coated pinball armor, a custom designer autographed bottom arch, exclusive inside art blades, upgraded audio system, anti-reflection pinball playfield glass, shaker motor, a sequentially numbered plaque, and a Certificate of Authenticity.
“Partnering with Toho, we have brought the Godzilla universe to pinball” said Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc. “Insider Connected enables players, owners, and operators to interact with their machines like never before.”

Founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford, Aston Martin is acknowledged as an iconic global brand synonymous with style, luxury, performance, and exclusivity.

2020 saw Lawrence Stroll become the company’s Executive Chairman, alongside significant new investment, a move that led to Aston Martin’s return to the pinnacle of motorsport with the Aston Martin Cognizant Formula One™ Team and commenced new era for the iconic British marque.

Well Aus Prices have come through - while a $100 increase from Stern has turned into a $800 increase down under for the Pro compared to a Godzilla Pro - had scratcher and while a dream theme looking well beyond my reach and a long wait....
Exchange rate today 23-9-22 is 1 USD = 1.51 AUD
Just heard from AMD - Pro's for Aus are not being produced until April 2023 and won't arrive here until around June 2023 - what is going on Stern
Quoted from swinks:Just heard from AMD - Pro's for Aus are not being produced until April 2023 and won't arrive here until around June 2023 - what is going on Stern
That is such a long wait and a huge price increase for all of us down under. No more sterns for me anytime soon.
Quoted from Micky:That is such a long wait and a huge price increase for all of us down under. No more sterns for me anytime soon.
I hear you, been with just one game for a while and was ready but the stars are not aligning - tempting to just get into making homebrews -have been procrastinating for ages and make a Spectre
Quoted from swinks:here is the data on % increase for the last year
[quoted image]
I actually laughed when I saw this price increase. Bond is $2500 (US) more than Godzilla was? May as well put it to 14,999 at that point.
And I'm totally good with Stern making sure they get every dime the flipper would have. I just find it hilarious that 13k is the price now.
Somewhere, there is a line for me.
It’s not a number, per se. Rather it’s a number in proportion to other numbers in my life. The 2023 increases are close to stopping, if not substantially slowing my game acquisition for a while.
I understand inflation etc. I’m not mad at anyone. I just look at the games and say, “How much is this bit of happiness in my life worth?” Probably not $10K is the answer for me.
I’m not interested in paying outright for any game at the Bond prices, but okay trading my current games for those for a while.
Fortunately, I enjoy the hobby in many ways besides NIB games.
I’ll be curious to see how long I stand on my little soap box.

sad thing is stern will be adjusting the price to the rest of their game range at the 1st of Jan 2023...

nice work, James Bond definitely jumps up and you have to wonder if a combination of license fees and then Stern just keep up so why not price higher.
It's so disingenuous of Stern....
Stern: "Listen up Pinheads, This Bond is an expensive license..... we have to charge more for it".....
Pinheads: "Ok, that makes sense. The game looks packed too. Nice BOM"
[Stern runs to the back and proceeds to mark up every game by the same amount]
Pinheads: "What a min!!!.... we didn't agree to everything being the price of a Bond"
Stern: "Suckers.... You WILL buy whatever we want to sell, and at whatever price we want to sell it. THAT is our relationship"
Stern: "It isn't about what's good for you, it's about what's good for me"
Does anyone know if the current Godzilla Premiums shipping are now the same price as a 007 premium (9699) or the $8800 (or so) they were earlier in the year. I had an order in and now I'm being told it's another $800.

yes apparently all games being built and sold from the 1st of 2023 will be Bond pricing..
Quoted from jake35:13k for a new stern LE. Ridiculous.
$20k in Aus though probably gone up now as our dollar is getting worse...
I was curious if there were still LE's left in Aussie as typically they are sold day one here, they are still available so might be the first game at new pricing that has people slowing down their spending in Australia.
The prices were listed for the Pro and Premium but now looks like they are changing as well as now TBA (as of 9th Nov) the dollar is worsening here so guess the prices are going up again.
Exchange rate today 9-11-22 is 1 USD = 1.54 AUD
Quoted from swinks:I thought it would be good to capture the first press release MSRP prices so we have a record to look back on and compare prices of Stern Games over the years.

"The Pin" = Home Pin / smaller head / smaller screen - some believed to have thinner MDF playfields (not plywood), both slings operating off one coil etc
Pro = Entry Level / Operators game
Premium = Collectors Level / with LE game play features and different art features than the pro
LE = Limited Edition / full game features and art features
VE = Vault Edition / priced at a Premium price point.
SE = Signature Edition similar to a LE but more of a cash grab feature
for people in Aus I somewhat maintain a similar list here as well but also capture AMD's prices at the time of a release as well as the dollar value as that affects the value of the game to us.
these are all msrp prices too, very seldom did anybody sell at msrp just a short 4- 5 yrs ago. Usually well under it. i bought ac/dc vault at $6800 where this price shows $7699, so even $900 cheaper than listed
Quoted from ccbiggsoo7:....very seldom did anybody sell at msrp just a short 4- 5 yrs ago...
God no.

these are aussie prices and pretty much fixed unless you are a good customer that gets lots of games - would get a slightly better deal
but yes the front page as detailed is all MSRP as it is a consistant, you guys in the US have so many dealers so better pricing to be had. Here in Aus we have one importer and then 2-3 on sellers with the same pricing as the importer / seller - very controlled down under.
While Bond release price was the new price across the board - AMD have increased it again compared to 3 months ago listed prices with the exchange rate today being 27-12-22 is 1 USD = 1.49 AUD. So the dollar has dropped since 3 months but prices gone up another $500AUD
3 months ago

Only Stern Distributor in Australia released the price of the Bond 60th Anniversary game at $31500 AUD
So given today's exchange rate is approx $1 USD to $1.45 AUD
$20000 USD x 1.45 = $29000 AUD and bumped up a little to cover freight, GST and profit.
