Alaska
About This Machine
The Interflip S.A.'s 1978 solid-state electronic pinball machine, Alaska, is a rare and intriguing addition to any collection. As one of the few Spanish-made machines from this era, it holds a special place in pinball history. The fact that it was manufactured by Interflip S.A., a lesser-known company at the time, only adds to its mystique.
Gameplay on the Alaska is marked by its unique features, including three or five ball play and a 5-bank drop target system. Players must navigate the challenges of pop bumpers, kick-out holes, and flippers to achieve high scores. The machine's Plexiglas playfield provides an excellent viewing experience, allowing players to fully immerse themselves in the game.
The Alaska's design and theme are rooted in American Places, a common trope among 1970s pinball machines. However, its rounded backglass display featuring a "clock" that lights up with a two-digit number at the end of each game adds an interesting touch. Unfortunately, there is no additional information available on this machine, but its scarcity and distinct features make it a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts looking to expand their knowledge of pinball's international history.
