Quoted from vikingerik:

I would figure Lawlor always wanted both lanes separately, the manual plunger skill shot (with the ball disappearing with that "bloop" sound effect, to rematerialize in the twilight zone) and the ability to autoplunge for multiballs.

Williams and DE had several bitter lawsuits over various issues, I dont see William's giving them a dime so they could have used Checkpoints auto plunge setup.

Quoted from truemagoo102:

They have different mechs for auto-plunge, correct? If I remember correctly JP doesn't use a kickback coil like the others. Also I take back my initial brainfart on B/W auto plunges, a TON of games had them prior to TZ. (HS2, BSD, DM?)

Checkpoint and Batman has what looks like a slingshot kicker head that the manual plunger strikes the backside of.

Jurassic Park, LAH and LW3 have no manual plunger so just a coil and return spring plunger setup like a VUK.

Stern Star Trek has a combo of the two- The manual plunger actually goes through the auto portion.
