Press Release
Stern Pinball,
Inc. is releasing its newest pinball machine, SPIDER-MAN™
May 10, 2007 - Stern Pinball, Inc. is releasing
its newest pinball machine, SPIDER-MAN™. Designed by Steve Ritchie, Lyman
Sheats, and the engineering staff at Stern Pinball, the pinball machine
takes Spider-Man™, Spider-Man™ 2, Spider-Man™ 3 and puts them all into
one fast-paced pinball machine that will excite both operators and homeowners.
In the SPIDER-MAN™ pinball machine, you are Spider-Man. Your goal is to
defeat the villains from all three movies: Green Goblin from Spider-Man™,
Doc Ock from Spider-Man™ 2, and Sandman and Venom from Spider-Man™ 3.
There are detailed, vibrant toys of each of the four villains on the playfield
with an associated shot. Defeat all four villains and experience Battle
Royale!
The pinball machine offers incredible features, including: Doc Ock's magnet
that simulates a "Fusion Malfunction" by holding the ball; Green Goblin
hovering on his glider above Pumpkin Bomb targets; Venom's ramp that quickly
feeds the ball back to the left flipper; Sandman's whirlwind of targets
and a motor 3-bank at the center of the playfield; and a whole lot of
amazing Multiball action.
Steve Ritchie says, "Many hours have gone into the making of SPIDER-MAN™
pinball machine. Lyman Sheats has created a set of elegant yet simple
rules that anyone can learn in a few plays. SPIDER-MAN™ pinball is a game
of speed, flow and constant action and excitement. Lyman and I have wanted
to make a Spier-Man pinball since forever, and it contains the best work
and ideas of many people who work at Stern Pinball. We are extremely pleased
with the results, and we think you will be, too!"
Kevin O'Connor created the backglass and playfield art, while Marc Schoenberg
and Mark Galvez produced the cabinet art. The pinball machine has a phenomenal
music and a sound package composed and adapted by David Thiel. The dot
matrix animations created by Mark Galvez are stunning and feature scenes
from Spider-Man™, Spider-Man™ 2, and Spider-Man™ 3 movies. Earning very
well and eminently collectable, SPIDER-MAN™ pinball from Stern
is a solid and entertaining package that will rock the pinball universe.
The SPIDER-MAN™ pinball machine will begin shipping in May 2007.
