Toro

Toro, produced by Rally Play Company of Nice, France in 1963, is a two-player electro-mechanical pinball machine built around a bullfighting theme. It's a distinctive entry in the European pinball scene of the era, featuring four flippers and three pop bumpers, giving players more ways to control the ball's path across the playfield than a standard two-flipper layout.

The cabinet is finished in formica and aluminum, giving Toro a sleek, modern look for a French-made machine of the early 1960s. Specific details about the designer are not available, but the game's construction and multi-flipper layout suggest a manufacturer keen to differentiate its games from mainstream American imports.

As a bullfighting-themed pinball machine from a relatively short-lived French manufacturer, Toro offers an interesting counterpoint to the American pinball machines that dominated the era, and its four-flipper layout makes it a notable design within Rally's catalog.
