TWD has a LOT of toys (especially the LE)! More than most of the top recent Sterns. I just don't get your comparisons, as there are more game play toys on TWD LE by my count than almost any recent Stern. Please note I am ONLY counting toys that are a part of game play, and not counting others (like the Fish Tank), also not counting stand-ups, but I am counting drop target banks...
TWD LE - count: 12
- Prison (optical bash) with opening doors and Zombie bash - count as 1, but could be 2
- Well Walker bash
- 2 magnets - counts separately from bash toys (I did the same for other games)
- 2 spinners
- controllable "block" drop
- Convertible / Lift ramp + bash toy - count as 1, but could count as 2
- Crossbow / cannon
- Fire Button on lockdown bar (note - could be used for more than just the cannon)
- Star Rollovers - integrated as a toy for special skill shots
- Drop Target bank - in a difficult spot (hard to hit bottom drop), and important in game play rules
Monster Bash (which I love) - count: 5
- Frankenstein Bash / Ramp Reveal - count as 2
- Dracula
- spinner
- phantom flip - not sure if this should count, since it's usually turned off
- uh oh -> that's it
Metallica LE - count: 8
- Sparky Bash
- Snake Bash
- 2 magnets
- 2 spinners
- In Lane Drop bank
- Newton ball with Hammer
Tron LE - count: 4
- up/down bank
- spinning disc
- drop target bank
- spinner
IM - count: 7
- 3 spinners
- 2 magnets
- kicker
- Monger up/down bash
STLE - count: 7
- Vengeance bash w/magnet, kicker and drop - count as 3 toys
- spinner
- fire button on lockdown
- warp ramp - since STLE is so low on game play toys, we'll count it
- outlane kickback - we'll even count this
AC/DC LE / Premium - count: 8
- Lower playfield - BIG TOY
- 2 drop down banks
- spinner
- Cannon
- Swinging Bell
- Fire button on lockdown bar
- Ramp diverter - we'll count it
- --- really - that's it - the other stuff is not part of game play
