About This Machine

Martian Queen is a two-player solid-state electronic pinball machine manufactured by LTD do Brasil Diversões Eletrônicas Ltda of Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, between 1977 and 1984. Its theme leans into an outer-space, Martian-invasion fantasy, consistent with the alien and sci-fi themes LTD do Brasil favored across several of its releases from this period.

Gameplay is built around three flippers, three pop bumpers, two slingshots, six star rollovers, a 5-bank drop target, and a separate 4-bank drop target — a dense combination of scoring elements that would have made for a fast, target-heavy playfield. No specific ruleset details have been documented.

Its exact release year, designer, and specific artwork remain unrecorded, and like several other LTD do Brasil titles of the era, Martian Queen is a fairly obscure machine even among collectors focused on South American pinball manufacturing. What is clear is that it represents part of a broader wave of Brazilian-made SS pinballs built around outer-space and fantasy themes in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
