I'm surprised to see the Data East Star Wars table left off of so many lists.  This is one of my all-time favorite tables, and the theme is put to such great use.  The shot to blow up the Death Star in multiball is an amazing pinball moment - it's fun every time.  And although the ramp is such a prominent part of the table it's put to great use with the fact that they keep count of the number of ramps you make and give out rewards at various increments.  I love tables that do this (like how RBION keeps track of idol hits and penguin loops).  Plus the ramp sound effect is great!  Besides all that, it's a HUGE nostalgia table for me as they had one in the movie theater that I worked at growing up and I would sink tons of quarters in it when I got off from work.  We always had just one table which would get rotated out for a different one from time to time.  If I remember correctly the order was Pin-bot, Cyclone, Terminator 2, Star Wars and then Indy.  The thought that there is a possibility that all of them might make it into TPA some day makes me giddy.

So if you're looking for a machine to fill out your top 10, please consider Star Wars!
