Stern 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 Royal!

       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 multi-ball 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 Spider-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 back glass 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, along with over 800 speech calls. 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.
