I know what you’re thinking, “What in Westeros will hold me over until Season 6 of Game of Thrones is released?” and do I have the answer for you. A Game of Thrones Pinball machine is the perfect solution to any dreary winter’s day coming in not one, not two, but three models! Those models would include the Game of Thrones Pro, Game of Thrones Premium, and Game of Thrones Limited Edition.
The Pro model of the board boasts toys and graphics that provide an irresistible challenge to play against Knights, Knaves, Kings, and Dragons alike. Each player on the board gets to choose what house they wish to knight for (Stark, Lannister, Greyjoy, Baratheon, Martell, or Tyrell) and get to choose which house to battle against. Rory McCann (The Hound) from the Game of Thrones series guides players through the epic quest to rule the seven kingdoms of Westeros. This board includes the new Reel PopsTM mechanism that works by getting the player to play the Pop Bumpers and spin 3 virtual reels on the display, then, when three identical symbols line up the player is awarded the prize shown on the wheels! You can also earn gold, and spend it on much needed features in the game. The Machine also includes an Action Button to allow for the largest amount of interactive features ever seen on a pinball machine. The Game of Thrones Pro model also includes 7 multicolour shield inserts to represent the great Houses of Westeros and special shots on the field. Lightning Fast ramps and Orbits are also included to send the ball on various unique courses throughout play. Right now the Pro model retails for a MSRP of $5,995 US and is available from any Stern Pinball retailer.
Next up is the Premium model, very different from the Pro by having a massive and challenging Castle upper playing field with an entire second set of flippers, shots, and an animated dragon! There’s also an Elevator serving two “floors” to bring the player up to the Castle for battle! The second Elevator floor delivers the ball to the Iron Throne where all victories can be celebrated. The limited edition includes all of the features of the premium, as well as a Certificate of Authenticity, a numbered plaque, a designer-autographed play field, and a beautifully hand drawn Cabinet and Back Glass done by Bob Stevlik. Exclusive side armour features Dragon elements of the Targaryen Sigil alongside an inscription of the house motto, “Fire & Blood” highlighted in a stunning red, mirrored backing. This model of the Game of Thrones Machine retails for a MSRP of $7,595 US and is available from any Stern Pinball retailer.
Finally, the Limited Edition model mirrors all of the features of the Premium, except now sporting beautiful reds and dragons along its sides and special Limited Edition Back Glass Artwork. This model of the machine retails for a MSRP of $8,797 US and is available from any Stern Pinball retailer.
All in all, each model of the Game of Thrones pinball machine is a phenomenal work of art, combing classic pinball elements and new pinball ideas to form the ultimate Game of Thrones experience.
