Isn't it more like $1000 more than the pro?

I think the Prem is way cooler. I love the walker bombs and the lifting ramp.

Quoted from jar155:

I like everything better on the premium except for the lift ramp. I have bash toy fatigue as it is, so I don't think this game really needs a 3rd bash. Being able to disable the ramp is a bonus, but it's still not as smooth or reliable as a ramp on the pro. The other extras are pretty dang cool though.

How is that a bash?

Lift ramps are cool. I love being able to volley backhand that shot when the ramp is up, like double or nothing on Jackbot. It adds a cool shot option that isn't there on the pro - making it an actual function and improvement on the game unlike most Prem/LE window dressing.

Quoted from jar155:

Because it's just a dead end target to smack into. Granted it's only there momentarily, but it's another hit with a hard stop on it. Lift ramps are fine in most games that use them, I just don't like the one on TWD because it makes the actual ramp shot goofy. You basically have to mod it or you get rejections from clean shots quite often.

If you install the protector shield shouldn't be an issue. What is an issue is the fact that these shipped originally with no dampening grommets and the shield cracks and breaks away in short order. If you install with rubber grommets they last much longer and keep shots from rejecting.
