Stern Pinball, Inc. and Toho International, Inc., the subsidiary of the Japanese entertainment studio Toho Co., Ltd, announce a new line of pinball machines based on the iconic Toho film franchise featuring the King of the Monsters, Godzilla! The Godzilla pinball machines are available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition (LE) models.
Godzilla is the longest running film franchise created by Toho, with thirty-two films produced since 1954. The popularity of the films have made Godzilla one of the most recognizable symbols in pop culture worldwide. In addition to numerous accolades and cinematic awards for film, music, and special effects, the Godzilla film series and licensed characters have generated over $1 billion in merchandise sales around the world.
In this monster-packed pinball adventure, players become Godzilla! The evil aliens, the Xiliens, use mind control rays to take control of the monsters King Ghidorah, Gigan, Megalon, Ebirah, and Titanosaurus. The Xiliens are demanding all of Earth’s resources. Godzilla and its allies, Mothra, Rodan, and Anguirus, battle the Xilien invasion with the goal of conquering Mechagodzilla to become King of the Monsters!
Chaos and destruction ensue on the playfield with Godzilla multiball, started by shooting one of the various shots in and through the centrally located skyscraper. In the Premium and LE models, a motor actuates the skyscraper, diverting balls through each of its five stories as it collapses, ultimately locking three balls on its roof. The Premium/LE playfield also features a collapsing bridge ramp. This animated breakaway ramp is guarded by a custom molded Godzilla and can divert pinballs back to the flipper or directly onto the playfield during Bridge Attack multiball.
On the Premium and LE models, Mechagodzilla features a motorized three-bank target set which rotates to reveal a spinner and jump ramp. Players will engage the Kaiju in battle by launching pinballs with the jump ramp and bashing the magnetic ball catch on its chest to start Mechagodzilla multiball.
All models of Godzilla pinball machines feature an innovative “Magna Grab” magnetic newton ball, capable of catching pinballs from five different shot paths, including off the plunge. This device can also divert pinballs to set up shots from the upper left flipper. The game also includes the iconic title song “Godzilla” by Blue Oyster Cult, stunning hand-drawn artwork by Zombie Yeti, intricate wireform ramps, three spinning targets (Heat Ray, Mechagodzilla, and Monster Rampage), three flippers, three “powerline” themed stand-up targets and a UFO pop pumper. The game highlights video and audio from ten* Toho Showa Era Godzilla films to create a one-of-a-kind immersive Godzilla pinball experience.
Godzilla pinball machines also debut Stern’s Insider Connected system, which includes a QR code reader on the bottom arch that enables players to interact with the game and this new network in a variety of ways. Stern Insider Connected provides new entertainment and player engagement features and an operator focused tool set to drive location play and remotely manage every aspect of the machines. Insider Connected goes live with the launch of Godzilla, with the full scope of features scheduled for roll out over the next year.
Only 1,000 LE machines will be available. The LE version includes an exclusive full color mirrored backglass inspired by Mechagodzilla, iconic custom cabinet artwork, custom high gloss metallic silver powder-coated pinball armor, a custom designer autographed bottom arch, exclusive inside art blades, upgraded audio system, anti-reflection pinball playfield glass, shaker motor, a sequentially numbered plaque, and a Certificate of Authenticity.
Can't wait to play it. Thanks for the review! Looks like it might be one of the best games to come out in the last 10 years or so.
Absolutely it’s an amazing pin, best Elwin design
I just can’t justify paying near $9k for the premium, and the pro is so stripped down. The pro artwork is really good. Thanks for doing the video.
most welcome buddy, hmmmm just tellin ya, its a great pin for 9k comparred to many other used sterns for the same price
You're looking at around $13500 for us Canadians. Totally crazy
Just found a pro out in the wild. You should definitely play the pro. I thought the pro did nothing for me in pics. I have to say Elwins layout is gold here. It’s a quasi fan layout but feels like nothing else I’ve played. Enough to where you forget there are no mechs and it flows for days. Your mileage may vary but I can see being content with a pro if price is an issue. Sure you want the bells and whistles but the pro was really fun and made a great first impression.
@@alancarpenter287 Absolutely agrywith you, pro gives you amazing gameplay.
Wow! Thanks for the unboxing and review. Great to see Godzilla up close and personal, Retrocengo style.
Most welcome brother, thanks for watching :-)
Hope you enjoyd it Retrocengo style
Well you are officially the first unboxing of Godzilla that I've seen!
Thanks for watching buddy :-)
Awesome gameroom Genco. Just awesome!
Thanks for watching brother
Thanks again for a nice review. I am new to this hobby having played only one game for the last 8 years (Playboy 2004) 🤣 - but will receive Iron Maiden Premium next month - Godzilla LE before Xmas - then Guns & Roses LE early next year hopefully 😀 Its hard to wait - in the meantime l love watching your channel 👊 I have a lot to learn. Hilsen fra Norge 💫
What’s up Norge 🇳🇴 how are you neighbor? Thanks for your kind words about my UA-cam channel, I really appreciate it😊🙏🏼
Okey I have all those pins reviewed on my channel, and I’m telling ya, you are gonna have a blast with that pin collection, great taste, all great pins
Funny review, you sound like Arnold, I'll be back.
Thank you for your kindness 🙏🏼😊
Its crazy many pinball machines you got :P nice video!! =P
Thanks brother, nice to see you also watch pinball videos😊🙏🏼
@@RETROCENGO of course I love pinball to arcade halls are forbidden in Sweden so it was in 90s I played pinball machines ;)
@ what, but why are they forbidden?
Arcade machines are so epic🤩
@@RETROCENGO politics they said that all criminals are in arcade halls so they make a law to forbid the arcade halls in Sweden even if the are no illegal activities there
@ That’s SO lame!! And sad for 🇸🇪 Sweden.
When you visit Denmark, make sure it’s a Thursday, and visit retroarkaden 😊😊 you will have a blast, filled with people that loves retro machines friendly happy people 😊
Maybe if I’m there. We can drink 🍻 beers and play pinball together 😊👍🏼
Great review. I like ur honesty and enthusiasm. I ordered Godzilla premium a few weeks ago and who knows when I will get it, maybe 2023. Btw, do u have any JJP pinballs? If so, what do u think about JJP.
Thanks buddy.
I have videos of all jjp pins. Just search retrocengo and the pinballs title 😊
Retrocengo Pirates CE
You have done a great job with your games room. Great art and stuff, not full of crap.
Looks awesome man! Hopefully I can get to play one sometime. Love the enthusiasm of your videos. Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
Whats up Dave, are you enjoing your new Spiderman? Sell one of your pins and get a Godzilla, you will love it :-)
Yeah dude, I’m really enjoying Spider-Man. I’ve just sold Diner and bought Indy500 too so have two ‘new’ games to play for now 🤣
I don’t know if I could sell a couple of my BW games to get one new Stern….at least not at the moment anyway. If they make a Gremlins pinball (which I’ve got a head full of ideas / playfield features for) then I would probably sell any game to get one of those!
@@caprilaser3 Congratulations dude, that’s a nice upgrade. Also fishtailed to stern Spider-Man is a super upgrade 🤩🤩
Gizmooooo
Wow your collection is awesome. Glad to hear you like Godzilla. Have my LE coming in November hopefully. Can't wait.
If the pro is this good, the LE must be amazing. Congratulations with your new pin
Not to take away from any of it, but a fun fact about the Godzilla Pro is that it is the most expensive Pro to date and also has the least mechs of the modern Stern era with only 7! Again, not taking anything away from it, its awesome! Love the passion in the video!
Thanks brother, yeaaa Prem/Le is the way to go on this title, but pro still has some awesome shots, then again we love toys and mechs in pinball
I just helped a buddy of mine unbox his. It's nice, but all I was thinking is about when I am gonna get my premium. This pro lacks of so many mechs.
Congratulations to you both, yea premium LE is the way to go on this one 😊
@@RETROCENGO totally agree, I couldn't get the LE unfortunately so like GaldinoPhotography I'll be getting a Prem in a few weeks. Cant wait! Cool video!
@@shanesrandompinballunivers6180 And its all fine with the Premium, trust me. Thnaks for your kindness :-)
Can you review Sopranos pinball please
Sorry I don’t know that pinball 🤗
Get to the chappa!
Yeaaaa, I’ll be back
Where did you find that awesome/huge Whitewater poster?
That's the Brian Allen "remake". Check out Flyland Designs.
You said on the video to protect the playfield. For a newbie, can you go into details on what is needed and what to do?
Thanks
I ment installing a playfieldprotector :-)
@@RETROCENGO Thanks. Which one do you recommend for the new sterns?
@@09Tedesco most welcome, Godzilla, Deadpool and Iron Maiden all 3 amazing pins.
I getting my Premium Q1 2022 (second run) and I can't wait! Absolute home run by Keith Elwin and Stern. Great to hear that Stern putting mylar down in high traffic areas... I wonder if they replaced their terrible coil stops?
Congrats with your NIB pin :-) allways fun to unbox, yeaa love that they are putting mylar on traficcal weak/wear areas, thumbs up to Stern
Thank you so much! And indeed love youre enthousiasm. Is the lightshow as good as Avengers? 👍👍👍
You are most welcome brother, thanks for watching, all i can tell ya is: The lightshow is amazing, colourfull, i really like it
