STERN PINBALL's METALLICA Game Success Leads To Second Premium Edition

April 18, 2013

Stern Pinball, Inc., the world's leading maker of real pinball games and the AAMA 2012 Manufacturer Of The Year, has announced the availability of a second Premium model METALLICA pinball machine. The initial release of METALLICA pinball captured the attention of gamers and fans alike. Stern sold out of both the U.S. and international allocations of its 500 Limited Edition ("LE") games within an hour of each respective customer announcement.

The second Premium edition machine features the vibrant artwork of Dirty Donny Gillies and complement's Stern's METALLICA LE, "Road Case" Premium and Pro models.

The new Premium edition METALLICA game boasts the same action-packed features as the Road Case Premium model and highlights the addition of Dirty Donny's radical pop art creations. Dirty Donny is considered one of the most influential artists in the pop culture scenes of underground rock, punk and heavy metal. He is widely known for his creative work on concert posters, album covers and vinyl toys.

"Stern Pinball has pulled out all the stops for the METALLICA machines," said Dirty Donny. "Creating artwork for this special release game has been awesome. I can't wait to see people's reactions when they take a first look at it and get to play the game."

For a glimpse of the game in action, Stern Pinball will be showcasing the METALLICA pinball machine at Comic-Con International in San Diego this year with Nuclear Blast Records.

The METALLICA game continues both the Stern Pinball and the Stern family tradition of producing quality pinball machines for young and old. The company traces its lineage to Philadelphia in the 1930s when Sam Stern entered the business of operating pinball games. Sam Stern subsequently became part owner and president of Williams Manufacturing, a pioneer in the pinball industry. Sam passed his lifelong enthusiasm for the game and the business of pinball to his son Gary Stern who founded Stern Pinball. Today pinball remains one of America's favorite pastimes.
