Lord of the Rings with Pinsound
Indiana Jones Pinball Adventure with Pinsound
Gun and Roses LE
Metallica either version will do
Fish Tales - two crossover ramps, jackpot requires 2 shots
Cyclone - sentimental favorite
Whitewater - advancing the rafts is so simple, but fun. Insanity falls ramp, one of the best ramps ever.
TAF - love how the magnets mess with your game play, but it is too expensive to own now
STTNG - great flow
1. world cup '94, set to a one ball game with the striker extra ball and extra ball round, makes it a challenge to complete. but it's such a good game for pinball newbies. also, it was my first pin and can never leave.
2. spiderman vault. the call outs are cheesy, but the art and dots are better than the original, it's cool to shoot and not so easy to beat.
(2.5) startrek premium, a deeper and better looking spiderman, bar the translight.
3. Indiana Jones, it's like 40yrs since the movie "raiders of the lost ark" first came out.
4. The walking dead pro, if it had dirty donnie art, Metallica wouldn't get a look in, but it doesn't and it only takes #4 from Metallica pro by an onion skin margin.
5. AIQ, it would be this or Jurassic park, but i hate dinosaurs and AIQ is an entire package that is going to take a long time to tire of.
honourable mentions, theatre of magic, still the most beautiful machine ever made. tales of the Arabian nights, second most beautiful machine ever made and data east TMNT, cause it's way more fun than that stinker from stern
Re-Refreshed list
1. Iron Maiden Le
2. Kiss Le
3. Led Zeppelin Le
4. The Mandalorian
5. Open to suggestions

What i would pick:
- TWD Pro --> Still here and will never leave. Fast, Brutal, Bloodpumping... awesome code.
- GOTG Pro --> Metallica with a more familiar Theme and less woodchopping. A highlight with upgrade Sounds/Music.
- Houdini --> Maybe not 10 game but the code and the atmosphere of this pin is awesome. It's a good shooter and rewards accurate shots with a good feeling.
- GNR LE --> The light show is second to none. The game is other then normal and has a nice and deep code.
- MB or BM66 or TMNT pro --> all are fun and love the themes but still hard to deside which is on the keeper list.
Oddball list but pins I chose for different reasons and have them currently
Led Zeppelin
Cactus Canyon
Flintstones
Granada (EM)
Creature from Black Lagoon.....if I had room for a fifth pinball

Flintstones? Wondering why?
Choosing 5 pins to capture your attention and reflect your pinball tastes is tuff. Paying $61k for them is a big commitment too.
AFMLE - best Bally/Williams was made even better by CGC. Strobe multiball, mothership video mode, 5-shot combo insert (encouraging combos since 1995), solid dialog and humor, scoring in XX billion point range - $9k.
JJPOTCLE - best adventure game ever - infinite combinations. Eric Menier design rarely found on location - $25k
JJPGNRLE - best pin ever made. Eric Menier design. - $11k
MET prem - best Stern dmd. Great toys - Sparky bash toy, moving hammer, newton ball coffin lock, ball swallowing snake lock and white cross rising from the grave. Dirty Donnie art. Lots of cool game mods available - $8k
JP2 - Keith Elwin design and my fave mega-theme. Community ROM with “real” movie assets create new level of integration - $8k
Two game types I see lacking from my selections are a fast / brutal game and a quirky game that somehow feels different. Adding them to round out the package would increase costs to $73k.
IM - Iron Man is fast and unforgiving - $6k
DP pro - I love the zigzag ramp, snikt multiplier target, Zombie Yeti art. New display graphics were created. Humor. - $6k
Lord of the Rings(got mine last month!)
The Hobbit
Total Nuclear Annihilation(hopefully soon)
Led Zeppelin
Medieval Madness
Quoted from Gorgar666:Monster Bash, Jurassic Park, Iron Maiden, The Shadow, Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
Maiden - the overall GOAT
Zeppelin - most fun and re-playable GOAT
Cheetah - fastest widebody GOAT
Dialed In - most loaded GOAT that doesn't suck
Star Gazer - prettiest 3X spinner ripping GOAT
Comet ('85 Williams)
Cyclone ('86 Williams)
Monday Night Football ('89 DE)
Star Wars ('92 DE)
Star Trek ('79 Bally)
Currently own the Cyclone, looking for the others.
As of right now mine would be:
The Beatles
Total Nuclear Annihilation
Jurassic Park Premium
The Simpsons Pinball Party
Star Wars Premium
1. Simpsons pinball party - best theme integration ever
2. Medieval Madness - This one started the hobby for me
3. Indana Jones Pinball Adventure - My first ever real pinball machine
4. Game of Thrones - Great game, great theme
5. A really good virtual pin so I can have them all
Quoted from Kkoss24:I need a spooky and eventually my kid wants to sell FG for a BW era pin .The 3 amigos are staying .
[quoted image]
If you’re gonna get a Spooky you should make it ACNC. Great game and it goes well with Maiden and GNR.
Depends on budget.
My "top 5/won't leave" is:
Lord of the Rings
Indiana Jones the Pinball Adventure (#TheGoodOne)
Indianapolis 500
Roadshow
Star Trek the Next Generation
Bonus: Strikes n Spares, but it'll be on location. Love the game, just no room at home.
My refreshed list from current lineup in no particular order:
Game of Thrones LE
Spanish Eyes
Teacher's Pet
Led Zeppelin LE
TX Sector
