Metallica pro or premium?
- Thread starter Andy Hancock
- Start date
I have seen that and it looks great. It is the one thing that is a big plus for me on the Premium and LE.
LE FTW! 
Hi All,
Bringing up an old debate here.
I am after a Metálica in Spain and have only played the Limited Edition one at Pinball Republic.
Here is what I have found: pro's go for €7,5k and premiums €12,5k (roadcase).
This thread started 5-6 years ago when the difference was £2K.
What are your thoughts now with this updated price?
Thanks

It's only worth buying the non-pro. You won't ever get one. The End.
Yep. It's possible to get someone to part with one but you're talking the cost of a decent secondhand sportscar.
Bloody love Met Prem, it’s just such a well rounded game. Pro was great too, so good I sold it to buy a Premium!
Yep you’ve got a point there! It’ll be the last to leave my collection,
I love the band and the pin even more

Was just reading this and hadn't remembered I'd started this thread way back when ! I got a prem in the end and I know it doesn't help all us prem owners saying we'll never sell but , well, I can't see me selling it ever 
When I fire up Metallica , 85% vol , drinking Peroni and get into those MBs …. cross rising, In Justice for All ramps getting combo’d - Crank it up ……
Only pin that gives me shivers down my spine.
It’s a work of art.
Lucky to have my one since NIB - totally pampered too.
“Metal up your Ar5e!”

Sounds like negotiating terms. But honestly I'd just buy it, fix it and thank my lucky stars.
Yup. Take a ball out and place it in the shooter lane. Whack it about a bit and check other things work.
Guess it’s a bit late now though.

Probably just a dirty opto (assuming it uses optos in the ball trough).

common issue on SAM stern games. As above just stick a ball on the game.

If you have ready reseated the Opto connectors and pushed back in have same issue? Vibrations play havoc on those solder joints… could reflow header pins but cheap enough to replace.
Think this may be worth a go:

Got our MET Roadcase today. Looks great! Love the looks.
Works perfect except for the ball when I plunge sometimes hits the side under the ramp and doesn't get to the top, so no chance of skillshot. When the pin does it in ballsave works OK...but it's not the strength.

make sure the playfield is in the right locked down position and is centered.

If you rotate the plunger does it stay straight?
