I'm trying to figure out what Stern will have as the main play field toy on the Tron pin so I figured I'd ask people that have seen the new movie what is a prominent figure in the movie? The drawing I saw of the PF only had a circle with the word "TOY" on it. Any ideas?

For example:
POTC - the ship is the main toy
TAF - thing
Funhouse - Rudys head
 
So is it official, that the next pin from Stren is Tron? If so where did you hear this? Also any idea what they will be going for?

After Rolling Stones is Tron. Expect it to be about $4k-ish...and a few more bucks for the optional shaker motor.

Do you think they will come out with an LE version? I'd hate to get screwed over the way the early Avatar buyers did.

No idea - but I hope Stern is smart enough to announce the tiers of Tron from the get-go. They created a situation w/ Avatar LE where people WILL wait on Tron if they're not sure, and it could cost some sales. They should be upfront about it.
 
Hmmmmm. So now I'm pondering the ship (looks like giant staple I guess?) or the disc.
If it's the disc then I'd assume it'd play a functional role much like the magnet in LOTR. Hell why not use something from one of their all time greats right?
Maybe it could be the staple looking ship with a magnet underneath it? I dunno just throwing some guesses out there. I do see a few recycled items such as targets on the left side 4 of them I'd guess will be used to spell TRON. The inserts up the middle of the playfield like they did on BDK and Avatar, Ironman (insert game name here) ;)
Thanks everyone for chiming in.
 
I will actually be buying a new TRON pin. This will be my 2nd pin but my first modern DMD pin. Cannot wait to see how it's gonna look. I would think the recognizer and light cycle would be pretty good choices for toys. Will the MCP cone make it in? Hope they mix elements from both the first and second movies equally. Any idea on release date? The gate keeper from the original TRON would also be a sweet addition.
