The Rush Premium Pinball Machine by STERN Pinball comes with free delivery, 2-year warranty and we have the lowest price for the Official UK version.
One of music's most legendary forces in progressive metal debuts in pinball in Stern Pinball's release of Rush.
A premier name in the musical world, there's not much the all-star force of Rush hasn't been able to accomplish. In their star-studded 40 year career, Rush has played to sold-out stadiums, gotten their own Walk Of Fame star in Hollywood and sold a staggering 40 million records.
Rush is the latest design conceived by industry veteran John Borg (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, KISS), who brings the band's music to life on a pinball playfield for music and pinball fans alike to enjoy. The game features a total of 16 of the band's most iconic pices, including Tom Sawyer, Working Man and Far Cry. The whole game has been given a distinct steampunk feel thanks to the various playfield details and features, including a magnetic Time Machine that can capture shots, sending them either out the back or the front, back towards the player. The game also comes equipped with STERN Pinball's Insider Connected technology, allowing you to link to your STERN Insider account (charged separately) to access all manner of additional features and play opportunities.
The Premium version of Rush includes a whole host of additional features and embellishments to make it one of the greatest pinball machines of all time. An additional motorised mechanical clock has been added to the playfield above the bumpers to time the length of modes. In addition to this, the playfield has received a number of other upgrades, including an additional habitrail ramp fed by an up-kicker, a motorised elevating ramp for the time machine and even a modification to the game's subway, allowing balls to be fired out of either scoop.

About STERN Pinball:
STERN Pinball, Inc. (“SPI”) designs and manufactures arcade-quality pinball games. It is the only maker of arcade-quality pinball games in the world and is located just outside Chicago, Illinois.
The company traces its lineage to Philadelphia in the 1930’s when Sam Stern got into the business of operating pinball games. These new games were all the rage in bars and restaurants, and game operators were making a very good living. Sam became so successful as an operator that he soon became a game distributor as well.
In 1947, Sam visited Williams Manufacturing Company in Chicago where, according to pinball industry folklore, he brazenly put his feet up on Harry Williams’ desk and asked, “Why don’t you sell me your company?” Because of Sam’s success as an operator and distributor, it took Harry only three hours to decide to sell half of the company to Sam.
Sam moved to Chicago and became President of Williams. Through the ‘50’s and ‘60’s, he and Harry worked tirelessly to build Williams into one of the leaders in the burgeoning pinball industry.
Sam passed his passion for pinball on to his son, Gary, who as a child played in empty game boxes on the factory floor at Williams. Gary was only 16 years old in the 1960’s when he started working for his father in the stock room at Williams.
The late ‘70’s and early ‘80s saw the emergence of coin-operated video games. As the coin-op market evolved, other companies acquired many of the existing pinball companies. In 1986, after the death of his father, Gary founded Data East Pinball, which was purchased by Sega in 1994 and became Sega Pinball. In 1999, Gary bought the business back from Sega and renamed it STERN Pinball, Inc. Less than a month later, Williams announced plans to cease pinball production in order to focus on the slot machine business.
Through the first decade of the new millennium, SPI struggled through the decline of Pinball and the decline of arcades to keep pinball alive thoughout the world by continuing to release games consistently covering some of the time's most iconic licenses. The company released many popular games during this time, including Pirates of the Caribbean, Indiana Jones, Shrek, Batman, Spiderman, the Simpsons Pinball Party and many more.
In more recent times, STERN Pinball has become a powerhouse in the pinball world as the most prolific manufacturer of them all, and continuing to push the envelope of what's possible in pinball today with a huge host of technological enhancements, including streamlined electronics, high definition displays for showing scores, highly adaptable LED lighting systems, internet connectivity and most importantly, access to some of the world's top-name game designers, including pinball champion Keith Elwin and long-term industry legends Brian Eddy, John Borg and George Gomez.
Even today, STERN Pinball continues to release multiple games a year revolving around some of the world's biggest and most historic brands, including The Mandalorian, Stranger Things, Iron Maiden, Jurassic Park, Aerosmith, The Beatles and many more. STERN Pinball's games continue to be enjoyed by both pinball enthusiasts and casual players around the world.
Warranty:
Home Use:
This pinball machine comes with a 2 year parts warranty. All parts that are faulty will be replaced. Furthermore, the first 30 days after delivery will be covered by a full on-site service where if any issues arise, we will either visit on-site or return it to our workshop to remedy.
For the remainder of the 2 years, we can often solve any problems over the phone and supply any necessary components for the customer to fit. If necessary our specialist repairer can visit your home to inspect and repair your machine on-site, but this would be chargeable. Please call us for a call-out quotation. If parts are required which are not carried at the time these will need to be ordered for you, and will sometimes need to be imported from the States - therefore, there can be a wait for the part to arrive.
After our 2 year warranty has expired we will continue to offer you complete support for any problems you have, either over the phone or by email, and can provide a chargeable engineer call out should it be required. Whatever happens, we will be able to look after you and your pinball machine.
Pinball machines are complicated items, which don't like being moved about, nor do they like the cold or humidity. Therefore, if you chose to move the pinball machine from where we originally installed it, or it is stored in a cold or damp location, our warranty will become null and void. We won't be able to supply any parts for your machine free of charge if it has been accidentally damaged or you have tampered with it in any way.
Commercial Use
Where a new pinball machine is not being used in a home, but is instead being placed in a commercial location such as a bar, pub, cafe, restaurant, bowling alley, trampoline park, youth club, office, factory, or similar, we will offer a 30 day on-site service warranty should any problems occur which are not a result of any misuse or malicious damage. This warranty will cover parts and labour.
