You two have the best chemistry in pinball commentary. Always great to see content from you guys! Please keep this ball rolling.
Means a lot Frank!!! Thank you! I guess were lucky that it just comes natural
I’m ecstatic to have another SDTM episode. You guys are still the absolute best pinball content online in any form. I’d love to see you back to weekly episodes and completely revisit old Top 10 topics with all the machines since those earlier episodes. Best of the Best is SDTM with Zach & Greg.
That’s a great idea Blake. Thanks for coming back to hang out with us…and the fly.
@@SDTM Heck yeah! Glad to have y'all back. Been mining the old eps for content. Hopefully now that things are ramping up again we'll see some more eps. See ya at Pinball expo in october?
This is the most valuable video you two have made. I come back to it time and time again! Thanks!
AIQ is a MUST !!! INCREDIBLE Pinball Machine!!! Just seeing it everyday makes me smile!!!
True, watching gameplay of avengers infinity and Jurassic park premium makes me excited to own one day.
Nice one guys just starting to get in pinball and looking at different machines
This episode goes down as one of the best. Beaten only by the monster bash and Elvira 3 reviews.
Thank you.
TMNT inbound August delivery!!!! YES, STERN is killing it and my wallet!!!
Holy crap what surprise on a Saturday morning, missed you guys!
Thanks buddy! We missed you too :)
Great video, great work. love to see a follow up video with games as of end of 2022
More SDTM videos please. Greg and Zach- the best duo on RUclips
Toppers and Speaker light kits are living LIFE !!! Oh and shooter rods/shaker motors/HD Glass
I’ve been waiting for a new video. Good to see y’all !!!
Love the moving/shaking demigorgan on STH Premium! Really makes that shot fun and something you don't notice till it's gone
Great video, this might be my favorite one you bro’s have posted. Keep doing what your doing
Missed you guys, what a great episode 😊👍🏼
Great episode, guys. Thanks for sticking your necks out on BKSOR Pro, but you are also absolutely right. It is faster and more focused on progressing through the modes. Just wish I could find a topper for mine!
That thumbnail is cursed 😂
Great vid fellas!
Nice watch.. Always love watching your videos.
Thank you sir!
ST Pro? I disagree. Must buy Prem or LE. Thanks for the surprise show guys!
Man that LE is so pretty!!!! It’s a special pin fircsure
I have a Metallica pro with the total light show and love it. And Greg, the install isnt all that bad. It's not EASY, but it is worth it.
Loved this video! Keep killin' it 🤘🔥🔥🔥🤘
I feel justified, we all agree I picked the right versions of all my games you covered
Finally! I’ve been eagerly awaiting a triumphant return of the dynamic duo. Not that watching Zach and his hot wife and offspring unboxing some Jurassic Arcade game isn’t scintillating, but the Greg & Zach dynamic are second to none. Welcome back boys. Love ya!
🤣😂🤣😂 thank you
How are you not sponsored by Stern? Your content is great and could help drive interest in the younger customer market (like myself thanks for the AIQ shooter rod)
can't unsee that. thanks guys
Excellent Video!!! Nice Work
TK. Ball lock and the entire game is PHENOMENAL. Stranger Things is EXCELLENT!!! Topper is sick nasty!!! Pin Stadium UV Kit is living life!!!
Really fun version of This Or That?! lists--thanks for sharing this one with us. Star Trek (Pro) is my pin, so 100% agree. I'll add, Pro is enough especially if you put a little extra into an LED ColorDMD for it--I'd rather have that over the laser lightshow or the VUK--wireform return. I do wish the physical left outlane kickback came on the Pro...
I want Avengers premium and Jurassic park premium. Marvel ramp probably coolest ramp in pinball and Dr strange portal is satisfying to drop ball into but nothing is more satisfying than shooting ball into t-rex mouth and trapping ball in raptor cage. Pro version is great but premium is incredible.
Agree! That trex shot is amazing!!!!!
Also, Mandalorian--I've been able to play both the Pro and LE... the mirrored backglass on the LE is beautiful, as is the cabinet art, but so is the art on the Pro. The Prem/LE upper playfield is really fun (no sneak it in the backside skillshot tho'.) The Pro is still so much fun, and I'm really torn. Haven't played a Premium, but this Stern is enjoyable across the trim levels.
Was offered $20k for my Ghostbusters Premium with Stern Topper/Walking Stay Puft, Turned the offer down, game is absolutely a HOOT to play!! Never leaving the collection, pulls me back to the first time I saw the movie with my best friend in the theater, remember leaving the movie theater with the most incredible feeling from having such a fun time!!!
Never get rid of it, especially with the topper. GB turned into one of the best modern Sterns’ with that excellent code update a few years ago. It’s almost a perfect game on every level.
One day it will leave you, lol 🥴
@@King_Henry Mr. 20k, I presume 😉
@@mrfuriouser no, 😆 i mean one day eventually everything will leave Us. So keep it until then!
@KING HENRY You are absolutely 💯 correct- unless he's buried in it! What?!?
GB L.E. is where it’s at. It’s just the best. I’m lucky to be able to play one close to where I live all the time.
It’s damn pretty for sure
Awesome show! Thank you! Finally, someone agrees with me that GOT Premium is the better version. Just swap those red inlane plastics for blue and you're all set.
Hell Yes!
A new one of these would be great!
“…Good game.”
“…Almost unplayable game.”
(surprised Greg then tries to recover)
😂
I say if you can swing it financially, go with the Deadpool Prem. The disco loops, disco ball, and drop targets really add to the game IMO. I could take or leave the molded figures. Also, love the Megalodon cabinet art. Have one preordered with Zach, can’t wait to get it!
Appreciate ya buddy and yeah that left or it feels much much better when it goes to the flipper and not get stuck in the pops
Well this show just cost me $120 because I bought the whitewater banner and it will cost me $230 more because I will be buying the White water back glass . These are amazing. Would be great if there was a SDTM discount code?
Look at all those toppers!
Starts at 14:14
I would consider Spiderman Black the first Stern limited edition. It was released in 2007 (versus Avatar LE in 2010). It had a black suited Spider-man on the cabinet, chrome trim, and a real backglass and was limited to 500 units. It set the standard for their edition sizes for limited edition games
100% on Aerosmith- a Pro is Perfection!!!
Do you guys have a podcast? If not, have you considered making one? I mean these videos work pretty well with audio only but a dedicated podcast would be really welcome!
Zach does a podcast on The Pinball Network called The Pinball Show
How’s the Newest 2018 Guardians of the Galaxy update ? I saw your review for the .80. Thinking this one or the Jurassic Park to compliment my Bride of Pinbot .
Hate to be one of “those guys” but you forgot about Mustang. With that I feel like the Pro is alright but hate it’s missing music the two LE’s had.
I’m also weird where I would mix and match cabs and playfields. I would love a “Road Case” Metallica Premium but I want a Monster Translite. Same with Iron Maiden. Would rather have a pro playfield but in the awesome Egyptian themed premium cab.
Yeah we did. But not much time one that title unfortunately
@@SDTM Not missing much on it. Just thought it was weird they gated the licensed music on the Pro.
You’re welcome good fellas
I know you're guys are hardcore pinball. But any plans on reviewing a vpinball and compare it to the real tables?
:) very possible…
Fun video!
How I play pinball..keep the ball from going through. I really wish I could figure out how to get more fro the games.
Fellas I gotta know what you think of Halloween?
Does the Jurassic Park 30th Anniversary LE have anything different to the regular LE?
Hi, can you tell me the name of the led lights you have on the speakers of the Stranger things behind you? thanks
Speakerlightkits.com
@@SDTM thank you soo much! am going to spend some coins! :D
you are my favourite flipper channel, always with amazing content, like this video. ! :)
There's a Walking dead fish tank topper for sale on Pinside right now.... for 2500 dollars :D
What about the #1 game GODZILLA, Pro or premium?
I have to disagree on the AIQ. The start of gem quests feeding the bottom right flipper compared to the top left flipper on pro is an absolute game changer. The way a well shot captain marvel ramp safely feeds the right flipper also adds a ton to the combos you can pull off consistently. Prem or above is really the way to go on that in my opinion.
What is that intro song?
So can we talk about that thumbnail? Actually no.....let's just forget it ever happened.
Transformers pro is so different to LE, much more flow
nothing about Spooky's Halloween?
That’s coming soon
what speaker light kits are you using?
Speakerlightkits.com
If you could choose any modern (2017>) stern pro, but it had to be a pro, what would you choose?
Deadpool
As long as you buy a sam system, you win (repair guys holla)
Skip to 14:05 the the actual start of the video
Do a Ghostbusters translight
Greg do even play pinball? Ogre’s on Medieval Madness and a bear on White Water , common now 😂
Ha ha I mean trolls! And I was really talking about a bear attacking the campers on WW
@@SDTM I never noticed the bear on WW until you said something, pretty bad considering I own one haha…..keep up the great work guys👍🏼
Daft "Funk" multiball? Lol
Whaaazaaaaahhh?!?!
I have to disagree with you guys on the GNR SE. I added the RGB lights by Mezel Mods and with the playfield issues that plague the LE and CE models PLUS the game being faster the SE with RGB mod is a no brainer. Not to mention JJP made less SE’s than LE’s because of cost efficiency
You BOTH need a good shave, make you look younger!
My god. That thumbnails..
So wrong on so many levels.
I don't like avengers infinity quest it's boring & ugly as heck of art! It doesn't even look like good superhero - comic book drawings imo! looks like some over proudced AI art 😂 plus the music is annoying and generic,
Rankings and this or that videos are lowest common denominator content. Thanks for wasting YT server space on this.
Thanks
