It's right there in the screencap above, just no glider. At least as far as I can see.
These are all stills from a promo video and not really doing the colors any favors. Guess the cat's out of the bag now, but people should wait for the official shots to really judge it I think.

I posted a second before all the photos dropped...this thing looks bad a** and I want it now.

I mean yeah.... looking pretty good so far! Don't care about the theme, yet it is equally not turning me off. I'm pretty excited here. Let's see this code and watch someone flip this bad boy!
I give approximately zero fucks about the spinning pizza magnet, but the rest looks neat as hell.
Mono targets on both side stand-up banks. Dammit, that is lame. Of all the places to save a few bucks and switches...
Looks to me like that is not a diverter on the Pro. The habitrails and what looks like maybe a clear junction platform are different/missing.
I'm wondering the ball lock or release in the Turtle van is missing on the Pro too. Here's hoping the disk spins and isn't static on the Pro - betting it is static like X-men...

Yeah, but they pull it off for FUEL on met. Let's just wait and see.
Quoted from PinB:Looks like the Action Button on the lockdown bar will control the diverter.

I mean, shadow did it perfectly. If you have time, this may be not bad!
Loving the art so big step there as Stern could have done Nick everything and I would have been out.,
That diverted on the Prem is HUGE - not really a fan of that. Seems to cover a lot up top. Has me really thinking about pro vs Prem on this. I wonder if the diverter is on the pro at all.
What about the rumored krang toy on the Prem LE? Anyone spot that?
Looks like a fun table with lots of cool bits, another winner, DAMN pinball is in such a golden age right now
Quoted from Capn12:One thing I wish would go away...that stupid 'action' button on Stern lockdown bars. And yes, I see that it has a purpose on TMNT, but still...hate it.
Dude, love it on hobbit, pirates, TWD, and Batman 66. It can be used to great effect.

Wow NOT a fan of the front of that. The turtles look so dumb and goofy. Exactly what I was hoping they wouldn’t do.
Back glass looks great though. That front would bother me too much. Well I never think the LEs are worth it but I was hoping the art would sway me. Looks like pro or Prem for me.

Yikes. I'd say my favorite art is pro and then premium. This color scheme isn't doing it for me.
Quoted from delt31:Wow NOT a fan of the front of that. The turtles look so dumb and goofy. Exactly what I was hoping they wouldn’t do.
Agreed, and thats a bummer because it looks like the rest of the artwork on the LE is killer.
Quoted from Doctor6:Dude, love it on hobbit, pirates, TWD, and Batman 66. It can be used to great effect.
I guess my main problem is...Stern just used it on every game after the first that actually used it...because it was cheaper to just use what they had I guess.
Quoted from JRay23:Agreed, and thats a bummer because it looks like the rest of the artwork on the LE is killer.
Who would OK that and say yeah - great addition to a pretty good package by putting in this dumb goofy pic of the turtles. Doesn’t match the intensity of the rest of it.
I’m also not a fan of the color scheme on it (that green and hot orange) - /doesn’t look good BUT I do like that back glass. Pass on the LE
Quoted from yancy:Playfield shots look washed out, like a photo of a monitor (understandable considering the circumstances). I bet the art is waaay more vivid/saturated in person, if I know Zombie Yeti.
The leak shots do look desaturated
Quoted from yancy:Ugh, mono targets. Those areas of the playfield are basically dead/wasted. No need to aim for a target bank that completes itself. Requisite double inlane. JB needs a new bag of tricks.
The area behind the left 3rd flipper is a passage like beatles that either drops the balls through like Spiderman's right one or stages them.
Definitely don’t like the front of the LE. All the translites look really good to me. Can’t wait to see it in action but I’m probably leaning towards the premium but need to definitely see more. Looks pretty cool JB!!
First thing I thought of after seeing the pro art was the old school Nintendo game by Ultra? Let me see if it’s a good comparison
So color scheme is maybe what's making me think of it

Quoted from DS_Nadine:What happened to their eyes?
They look as if they're about to cry. Srsly, what's with their facial expressions?!
I get they go for a child friendly look, but way "cuter" then even the classic cartoon. :-/
Craftsmenship ist top notch of course but I'd prefer them 20% cooler.

Shredder looks cool tough.
Looking forward seeing the bottom half.
Ok, now with more pictures: The rest looks completely great to me! 
Quoted from sunnRAT:Not only that, but no two machines play the same! Can you imagine playing against strangers and their machine is set up entirely different than yours? Pitch, settings, outlane posts, fresh rubbers/old rubbers, etc.
With the way people in this hobby get super competitive, I have no doubt it will cross over into the online world and people will look for any kind of unfair advantage they can give their machine. People will might as well take the glass off and troll-play on other players.
Video games work well with online capabilities because they are basically programs, so everyone is on the same level. The most it could benefit in pinball is maybe updating code or features.
If I want to play pinball against friends, I wanna do so on the same machine, with neutral settings, drinking the same beer and having a conversation. I want to play pinball on my pinball machine, not watch TV with a fucking conference call. There are plenty of other things that allow you to do that.

Konami Track and Field with pencils, too.
Playfield and Translites look great, but not a huge fan of the cabinet art, especially the LE which was what I was most interested in.
