Rock on: Stern, Foo Fighters unveil rock and roll pinball machines

KUALA LUMPUR, March 1 (Bernama) -- Stern Pinball Inc has unleashed a new line of pinball machines celebrating and created in cooperation with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame class of 2021 inductees Foo Fighters.

According to Stern in a statement, the Foo Fighters pinball machines are available in Pro, Premium and Limited Edition (LE) models.

Stern’s Foo Fighters machines bring the Foo Fighters concert experience home as players are immersed in an epic pinball adventure featuring 15 iconic songs spanning the band’s expansive catalogue, including All My Life, Best of You, Breakout, Everlong, Holding Poison, I’ll Stick Around and Learn to Fly.

“Partnering with Foo Fighters, we created an entirely new pinball universe under the backdrop of incredible music.

“The energy from this unique, fast and flowing game design, choreographed with spectacular light shows and stunning hand-drawn artwork has created the ultimate gaming experience,” said its President & Chief Executive Officer, Seth Davis.

More than two years in the making and with creative input from the band’s own Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee and the late, great Taylor Hawkins, Stern’s Foo Fighters is a top-shelf pinball machine.

An entire new universe has been developed with jaw-dropping hand-drawn artwork and custom animations including “Foo Fighters Saturday Morning Action Time!”, a fictional television series chronicling the band’s quest to save rock and roll… AND THE WORLD!

In addition, Foo Fighters pinball machines include Stern’s award-winning Insider Connected system, enabling players to interact with the game and a global network of players in a variety of ways.

Limited to 1,000 machines globally, the highly collectible LE includes the Expression Lighting System equipped with 96 intelligent RGB LEDs that enables full colour spectrum control.

The LE version also includes an exclusive Rock-Battle inspired full-colour mirrored backglass, exclusive full colour high definition reflective foil decal cabinet artwork, custom high gloss Overlord green powder-coated pinball armour, a custom designer-autographed bottom arch, and a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Stern Chairman, Gary Stern and Davis.
