Over on the VE one guy said this ...
The most ugly and ridicolous version of the 1200 is the 1210m5g...those ultra bright blue leds,the +-20% pitch control (!?!),the 0-7g antiskating control and the anti-skip device on the tonearm for the scratch dj...not to mention the cheesy finish.It really seems a toy for kids and puts a shadow on the real sl1200 wich is a great piece of engineering wich has a great and classic look.
