Obviously Foo LE will have expression built in.
But for Rush, I’ve heard that the accessories are coming soon. Like all of them, including expression.

Quoted from LegoYoda:Well, I got a pro because it's the only one in budget.... But, also... I've never played a game with an upper playfield I've LIKED (it's just a me thing). so, if you strip that out it's £3k for a vibrating toy, a van and the deadpost.... I don't see the value for me there. No doubt those that DO like upper playfields though will be Prem all the way! I was saving for a GZ Prem (because that feels worth it) but this just spoke to me...
And the CHANCE at expression lighting. Pro has no chance of ever installing them. Prem at least has the cutouts for them if Stern ever gets their accessory act together.
Quoted from kermit24:Say what you will about the pro vs premium, but the "pros has better flow" argument isn't really valid. If you shoot the right ramp and don't use the upper flipper, the ball flows exactly the same.
but then you dont make progress to the area 51 multiball
Quoted from LegoYoda:Slightly shocked Expression lights havent got a 3rd party option yet. After all, they are just aRGB strips (nicely inset to the cab). Would ahve thought a PinStadium type kit could do almost the same thing...
They're not "just" RGB strips. They're RGB strips connected to mini-node boards. THAT'S the hurdle. The electronics that drive them are specific to Stern. Also, once you have them, you can get expression-lit speaker light lits and under cab, too. Opens up a lot of possibilities for immersive lighting on a music pin.

What comes first: available expression kits for FF or people getting their PF LEs? Least exciting race in history...
I tend to hold on to pins for a long time and if this plays as well as it seems, it'll likely be here for years, so I guess I'll get there (expression lights) at some point...

Quoted from boommerknight:Who has already rendered pictures of what color they are going to powder coat their premium? I’m debating between blue, purple or green.
It will be my first time getting powered coating but I have a feeling this machine will stay!
Also going to be upgrading the speakers and changing the t molding to match
Orange or Purple here, I have games that have red and green so thought I’d go with something different here.
Quoted from 1963BSARGS:anyone hear any updates on le production?
JD had a deadline to have all of this cards autographed by the end of next week, if that helps any.
Quoted from GranpaDave:Solid thinking. Have expression lights and these speaker lights on LZ and Rush premium (LZ kit surprisingly looks awesome). Already ordered Ninjacamp speaker lights for FFLE. Will get Rush expression lights next year (?).
I saw in some of their videos it looks like they have another set of lights behind the cabinet - do you have a setup like that or just strips on the bottom?
Quoted from 5DLounge:The rumor is the Foo Fighter's have a secret album dropping this month.
Don't tell anyone I told you.
Taylor Hawkins, the drummer for Foo Fighters passed away one year ago Saturday.
I feel a secret album dropping before 4/1.
Played a pro today at a showroom. Pretty smooth shooter. Shots felt unique and unlike any recent pins. Has a bit of an Elwin feel to it. Felt like a combo of AIQ and Godzilla. Music flows really well with the animations and what's going on within the screen. Code feels solid despite being new. Callouts are fun, especially if you're an Adult Swim fan. Alien sounds like Zorak from Space Ghost and the Brak show. Lots of Easter eggs and teasers for stuff to be added later. The opto spinner spins forever and feels awesome to hit it. This is already a deeper/better game than Bond.
Only negatives would be the plastic image of the space ship and the plastic image of the van on the left wireform feel super out of place just being a flat plastic image rather than something 3D. The van especially is real "meh" because you see if from a side angle.
This game is a really nice bang for the buck. Ready for mine to arrive.

I mean, it is a Pro. The mod community will be all over this.
Great feedback on the rest! This one post alone actually raised my expectation of the game itself.

Everything about this sounds good. Definitely the most excited about this game of all the recent reveals.
Like what I am seeing as far as how van modes are treated in the new update.

-When you make the first shot in a city, 6 units of progress are awarded instead of 1.

Hoping that makes completing modes a little easier earlier on. Definitely a solid change, as well as giving the option between Austin and DC. Very cool.
Quoted from PinRat:I saw in some of their videos it looks like they have another set of lights behind the cabinet - do you have a setup like that or just strips on the bottom?
My son set up his own RGB light strips on the cabinet (back box and under cabinet) on my GNR and his as well. Definitely a cool thing and there is at least one mod person who sells these. Most excellent for those watching someone else play. We also have the concert pin stadium addition for our Guns N’ Roses tables. These are great.
Expression lights vs. hot rails – they are different and both have advantages. I like them both. We also have the concert pin stadium addition for our Guns N’ Roses tables. These are great. Comparing expression lights to hot rails – they are different and both have advantages. I like them both. Not necessary to have Pin Stadium’s with expression lights for me however.
Will the LEs be shown on the line for factory Friday? Here's to hope. Oh yes, I want to see that sexy beautiful green...let's go!

That is insane!
All the pins being released from different manufacturers, with so many choices
Really helped me appreciate Stern all the more.
Thank you Stern.

I am new to expressiion lighting, can you point me in the right direction for speaker lights that would tie in? that sounds awesome.
Expression lighting may be too much for me. Have you all played a Rush with it? It is kind of distracting blinking and being very bright. Perhaps you get used to it. I was literally picking songs that I didn't think would blink as much.

I can't imagine rush without, and I'm buying the whole kit for FF. But I get that some won't like it.

Have a Led Zeppelin and Rush both with expression lights. Would not want these games without them. Come on down to Dayton and you can see for yourself.

Come on over, I'll show you. 
Can't wait for them to come out.

Wow they're working hard on this

I don't have any personal experience with them, but try the NinjaCamp expression light add-ons.
Quoted from barakandl:Expression lighting may be too much for me. Have you all played a Rush with it? It is kind of distracting blinking and being very bright. Perhaps you get used to it. I was literally picking songs that I didn't think would blink as much.
Turn the LED brightness down and it's fine. It's the first thing I do when I unbox. The max LED brightness has to be bad for eyes. I usually set it to about 70% in the menus and it's fine.
Also, given how hard the expression light kits are to get for Prems, it's one of the few add-ons that will increase the resale value of the machine for the forseeable future.

I hope they don't bail on making that upper playfield super cool like it deserves. As i've said before, Stern have a history of under-utilising the PreLE only features in an effort to keep all the tiers more or less equal gameplay and code wise. Please DeadFlip lets have something special happen up there worthy of the effort you put into making it.
-Every van mode now can get one shot awarded from the upper playfield inner loop and upper playfield outer loop.
-NY Van Mode now lights the upper spinner to always build value.
Also, rule sheet posted!

Really happy about this change. I have a pro on order and was starting to worry mode completions would be too hard. Back to just being excited for it to arrive now!

Really nice. Where did you get the prints?
Quoted from HB_GAMER:Really nice. Where did you get the prints?
From all over during the years. I'm a massive FF fan, so the theme was a no brainer for me. The Taylor print I got at the show in LA. And the others I've got through poster dealers, directly from the artists and eBay.

Those are sweet. Which shows have you been to?
Curious
Anyone know if FF production will be in new factory or
Is Stern still producing at their old location ?
Quoted from JustEverett:Factory Friday shows Foos on the line, just pros no LEs.
Was hoping to see some LEs, but those pros are looking so good. What was that random Star Wars doing in there? haha.
Quoted from SDVmnt:Where do you find the Factory Friday pics??
It gets posted on Sterns Facebook page.
Quoted from BoilerUp:It gets posted on Sterns Facebook page.
Should have known! Thanks!
Now get those filthy Pro's out of the way!
