This pin is not for me, but the art package is tremendous. Just classic retro, awesomely-busy-in-the best-way-possible hand drawn pinball art.
Im seriously stunned and surprised by this. The art, translite, old style pop bumper caps, playfield art just look incredible.

Quoted from Jakenjoi:
Wow, I HATE Kiss, but I LOVE the look of this machine.
Well done Stern!
Same here. I want to go in debt to buy this.
Quoted from Snailman:
Not a fan of KISS, but love the hand-drawn art! And the homage to the original KISS pin. Bravo
Agreed. Pin looks pretty bad ass too.
Do we know who designed this one? I'm guessing Borg since it uses the "Pat Bottom" and his designs seem to take a lot of influence from Lawlor.
I like that the pops will actually affect gameplay. A nice change from having them just for the sake of having them.
I really didn't care for this theme and all the speculation that it would be KISS kinda bummed me out but Damn this looks nice! Hopefully the code and gameplay can live up to the art!
So how many of you guys that swore off pre-ordering will be... pre-ordering?
Don't be shy, raise your hand.
SEND MONEY NOW!

I actually prefer the black trim/cabinet art of the Pro/Premium.
May need to rethink my buying strategy...

.
For sure.
So is Gene's tongue a ramp or not? It doesn't look like it from the pics. So the head is just a static toy?
When did the band members become professional wrestlers? Some wishful thinking there on how they are drawn on the playfield.
So does KISS own the copyright on the art from the old Bally pin? I could see them leaving it up the owner to replace the bumper caps, but they're also using the spinner AND the same images on the inserts behind the spinner.
Kiss definitely isn't a game for me, but this does look AWESOME!!!!

Quoted from vid1900:
I think you shoot under his head, then it lowers and he vomits the balls.
That would be a bummer. I'm really hoping you can hit balls into his mouth.
Pro is missing alot of the features which I figured but its missing most of the cool things . Ill stick with my met pro as its probably the best pro
Quoted from bigd1979:
Pro is missing alot of the features
Floating ball & moving head seem to be the biggest. Action figures missing don;t bother me much.
The cabinet looks insane...but I'm not sure insane in a good way?
The playfield however, wow. Even if you're not a fan of KISS, it's hard not to say that it looks incredible. Looks like a fun shooting game, nice and straight forward. I say this title sells very well.
It's just a shame they botched TWD, but even with great code that game plays ''off'' with its randomness. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out, especially with the code. Will it get the Metallica treatment? Time will tell.
Thumbs up for Stern on this one, looks great!
