    Funny with our differences in opinions. Some of peoples favorite machine toys are the exact reason why I chose not to buy the Premium/LE and go Pro. I can't stand coffin lock-clunky and kills flow(plus do not care for huge view obstructing hammer). Moving T-Rex-meh just a supped up DE version to me and more of a interruption/flow killer.

    For me it would be the Star Wars Hyperloop followed closely by BDK & BM66 Crane Toy.

    Another notable mention is Stern NBA saucer to basket shot with the pinball flying across the playfield. Guest always say "WOW" that's cool when they see it for first time.

    I have seen it hundreds of times so the "WOW" factor has dissipated a little for me. Still a cool toy and I am easily entertained.

    I already get my fill of stop and go flow killing when I play Lawlor games. I prefer speed and flow-big Ritchie fan here. One of the worst offenders recently is Elwin's Jurassic Park pop up stop in flipper lane. Worst flow killer offender. Just in the last week I have watched two different newbie guest play it and when the pop up stalls ball for animation video people look up-get distracted and then watch their ball drain because they did not know what was happening. After the first half a dozen times of disrupting ball flow-it gets old quick. No need to kill flow in pinball, if I want a break I will take it in-between turns or balls played.

    I forgot about Big Lebowski bowling lane toy. Cool toy but a bit of a novelty and the fun factor wears off quickly. While the JJP POTC ship is cool, not sure I consider it a toy- but more of a main feature. It is a mini playfield that rocks back and forth, and does have great detail.

    Sparky does take the cake for a center bash toy, followed closely by Monger and Black Knight

    I ended up changing my vote after some thought

    The Star Wars Hyperloop is an engineering marvel but is it a toy or more of a visual feature? The pleasure is hitting the fork ramp to initiate the Hyperloop usually during a hurry-up. While it is a satisfying shot and feature, I still think I find more enjoyment hitting the BDK Crane with a shaker motor added. Cradling the ball and trying to hit at the right moment with a good amount of risk vs reward. Changing my vote to BDK Crane #1 Toy(Need to add-BM66/BDK to vote category)
