About This Machine

The Star Trek (Enterprise Limited Edition) pinball machine, designed by Steve Ritchie and manufactured by Stern Pinball in 2013, is a highly sought-after addition to any serious collector's cabinet. As part of the popular Star Trek franchise, this pinball machine offers an immersive experience that brings the iconic USS Enterprise to life. Its significance in pinball history lies in its place as one of the many licensed theme machines Stern has produced, showcasing their ability to captivate players with beloved franchises.

Gameplay on the Star Trek (Enterprise Limited Edition) is engaging and challenging, thanks to a variety of features that set it apart from other pinball machines. The game includes three flippers, three pop bumpers, two slingshots, 14 standup targets, and a comprehensive ramp system, including the impressive "Warp" ramp with sequenced chase lights. Players can also enjoy multiball action, a spinning target, and a shaker motor that adds an extra level of challenge and excitement to gameplay.

The machine's design and art are particularly noteworthy, featuring a mirrored backglass with a unique Star Trek theme, along with blue-colored side rails, lockdown bar, and legs. The attention to detail in the artwork is consistent with Stern Pinball's high standards for theme accuracy and visual appeal. One interesting aspect of this machine is its use of wireform habitats on the flipper return lanes, adding a touch of futuristic aesthetic to an already visually striking design.
