About This Machine

Trick Shooter is a four-player, Western-themed solid-state electronic pinball machine manufactured by LTD do Brasil Diversões Eletrônicas Ltda of Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, between 1977 and 1984. Its backglass and playfield closely resemble Game Plan's 1983 machine "Sharp Shooter II," suggesting it was built as a Brazilian adaptation of that design.

Gameplay features include two flippers, four pop bumpers, a kick-out hole, and a 7-bank of drop targets, with the Western theme reflected in its cowboy-and-frontier artwork and layout.

Details about its exact production year, original distribution, and designer are undocumented. Like other LTD do Brasil releases from this period, Trick Shooter appears to be a Brazilian-market adaptation of an existing American pinball design rather than a wholly original creation, making it a useful data point for tracking how U.S. playfield designs circulated internationally in the early 1980s.
