King Kong
About This Machine
King Kong is a rare and intriguing addition to the solid state electronic (SS) era of pinball machines. Produced by LTD do Brasil Diversões Eletrônicas Ltda between 1977 and 1984 in Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, this machine represents one of the lesser-known titles from a manufacturer that primarily focused on producing games for the Brazilian market.
The gameplay features two flippers, three pop bumpers, and two slingshots, providing players with a range of options to navigate the playfield. The presence of a 7-bank drop target and six stand-up targets adds variety to the game's objectives and challenges. The machine's theme centers on the King Kong character, with backglass artwork depicting the gorilla and a jet plane reminiscent of the 1976 King Kong movie poster.
Little is known about the designer behind King Kong, but its blend of solid state electronic gameplay and colorful art make it an attractive target for collectors and enthusiasts. While information on this machine is scarce, its rarity and distinctive features set it apart from other pinball machines of the era, making it a fascinating addition to any collection.
