Metal Man

Metal Man is a rare and intriguing pinball machine from Industria (Electromecánica) de Recreativos S.A., a lesser-known Spanish manufacturer that produced games under the INDER trade name. Released in 1992, Metal Man represents one of the few examples of a Solid State Electronic pinball machine from this era. As such, it is a significant addition to any collection or museum dedicated to the preservation of pinball history.

In terms of gameplay, Metal Man boasts an impressive array of features, including four flippers, a single pop bumper, and a slingshot that can propel the ball into multiple directions. The machine also features five stand-up targets, a 3-bank drop target, and a star rollover mechanism. Additionally, players can navigate through a left-outlane kickback, left dual inlanes, and a right crossover return lane. A unique elevated circular mini-playfield drop-down cabinet adds an extra layer of challenge and excitement to the game.

The Fantasy theme is visually striking, with vibrant colors and intricate artwork adorning the playfield. Unfortunately, very little information is available about the machine's design or artistic inspiration, leaving enthusiasts to appreciate its aesthetic appeal on a purely intuitive level. As one of the few INDER-produced pinball machines to surface in recent years, Metal Man offers a fascinating glimpse into the lesser-known world of Spanish pinball manufacturing during the 1990s. Its presence is sure to captivate collectors and historians alike with its distinctive gameplay features and mysterious design.
