The Limited Edition of Stern’s Aerosmith is the top-tier expression of John Borg’s 2017 tribute to Boston’s legendary rockers — the same deep design as the Premium, dressed in exclusive LE trim and finishes for collectors who want the definitive version. It carries the full feature set: a vertical up-kicker to an elevated mini-playfield, dual scoops, an expanded standup array, a thrust magnet, and the signature upper-playfield “Toy Box” that unleashes a multiball of three to six balls.
The gameplay is Borg at his most rewarding. Short-plunging the “Toys” lock shot banks extra balls in the Toy Box, and the masterstroke is to abort multiball after locking three, keep locking, and detonate a full six-ball multiball after the sixth lock for towering jackpots. “Love in an Elevator” multiball is lit via both orbits, and song modes — Sweet Emotion among the most lucrative — build toward Crank It Up, the climactic song showdown that doubles your coins and inflates shot values.
Underneath it all runs the coin economy: mode performance and combos earn coins, and the more you accumulate, the more valuable the Super Modes become. Spelling AEROSMITH lights a shot multiplier, the upper targets light 2X scoring, and the VIP Pass offers a crucial outlane ball save. Loud, lavish, and bottomless, the Aerosmith LE is the showpiece way to own one of Borg’s most exuberant music pins — a machine that plays every bit as big as the band’s stadium spectacle.
