Star Trek LE pinball "Unboxing" (Stern Pinball, overview of limited collector's edition!)

www.buccisarcade.com
Here is a 10-minute "unboxing" and overview of a brand new pinball machine from Stern Pinball, Inc. It is the limited-collector's-edition STAR TREK. There were only 799 built and delivered late 2013.
Thanks to Bruce Nightingale and the gang for having me over to experience this. It was a blast. Enjoy and thanks everyone watching!

A Chris Bucci produced pinball video with Gizmonic doing the commentary. Does life get better than this??? Great job guys!

[@MrNiceHk]

This is the Pinball Table I will try and build, this is it ... wow, how beautiful

[@jdrukman]

Slick editing, Chris. What a great job. A drool worthy table for sure.

[@spida1a]

Thanks my friend. I appreciate that. Have a great one!

[@tetrisdave]

What a great looking table. I really like the starfield projector.

[@dadofducks]

Chris Bucci is the Steven Spielberg of Pinball making videos.

[@spida1a]

Ha ha. Well, thanks man. That's an honor. :) Thanks for watching.

[@phoenixlich]

absolutely bad arse! love star trek (new and old) and if i was a collector this would be a must buy for me! thanks a whole lot for sharing this with us!

[@Riz2336]

Even for not really being a Star Trek fan at all I think this table looks great.

[@JunsLord]

It's so nice to see the entire family enjoying the machine :) Awesome dude!

[@spida1a]

It was a lot of fun. Lots of great people. Thanks for watching.

[@caspice]

When I was about 13 year old, I made a pinball machine in Wood. Did not Work at all. But was still fun trying to make.

[@lvpepe38]

Looks like a lot of fun. I would love to try it.

[@spida1a]

Thanks for watching!!!

[@spazzman90]

Man, 2 years since a new pinball video from you. And so much has happened in the pinball world since then. Would love to hear your take on some of the new titles. Wizard of Oz, Hobbit, America's most Haunted or any of the new Stern's since then. Take care.

[@jboypacman]

Beautiful machine Chris i want to play this one now.

[@spida1a]

It's pretty fun. Thanks for watching!!

[@Rosscotas]

Limited edition is worth the money for sure, good clip cheers

[@mattmanning4934]

Great job as usual, thanks for the vid!

[@spida1a]

Thanks my friend. I appreciate you watching.

[@Regejr512]

Awesome machine. Thanks for the review.

[@spida1a]

Thanks for watching. :)

[@uzi1951]

Nicest looking machine ever!

[@marcyv76]

Great editing

[@afterglow-podcast]

Thanks for the vid. I love the Trek TNG game on pinball arcades app, wish I could afford the new machine.

[@spida1a]

Thank you my friend!

[@benyetter8103]

Its ROPPTASTIC!

[@GameplayandTalk]

Great video, Chris! I've had the opportunity to play this game quite a bit, it's a lot of fun. Not too difficult to learn at all really, but it's got such a great flow. Got to love how you can double the value of just about any shot by linking it in a combo! On a side note, I have to say, Stern really needs to step up their quality control! It's a shame the plunger was busted right out of the box. One would expect better for a $7,000+ purchase, right? I've got a friend that has picked up multiple NIB Stern machines in the last year and a half or so, and they have all had issues, some being kind of major (like his Star Trek LE not taking the code updates; had to replace one of the boards completely, heh).

[@spida1a]

I will never buy a NIB game again myself personally. Part quality control, part "way too expensive." None of these games are worth what the market charges for them today (IMHO). But, I'm glad I have friends who still pick them up. : Thanks for watching!!

[@GameplayandTalk]

Yeah, I've yet to buy a NIB machine myself. I think I'll be sticking with used ones that have already been put through some real tests, ha!

[@darkinertia2]

very interesting! damn i love your pinball videos so much! since your done with your collection videos, would you ever consider doing a basics of certain tables? CGRpinball does some really top tier ones, but id like to see a basic rundown, i cant really play pin in person too often but i play a lot of the pinball arcade on my vita/ps3/pc and it scratches that itch for me but theres just some tables that i get so confused on what to do like creature from the black lagoon or the star trek TNG, the instructions in game and ones online still dont help me because theyre just text...ive learned a lot from your collection vids since you have a lot of tables from TPA

[@RichformO4]

Really like the light show!

[@spida1a]

It is perty! :) Thanks for watching.

[@RichformO4]

spida1a Sure thing ^^

[@VinnieBlackLodge]

my 2 year plan to start a pinball room is underway ! with almost finishing the NES collection i have decided to move to statues to basically get into a high range of buying and selling on ebay. statues are the only step between me and pinball machines now ! ill be looking for advice in the coming months or year on what a good cab to buy would be and new or used.

[@spida1a]

Ah, we have a real problem don't we? ;) Best of luck. and Thanks for watching.

[@Tanerion]

Pretty flashy table. Kinda wish this was old Trek though with an audio clip of William Shatner telling you to "activate nerd mode" 8D Btw I received my TurboViews 3 DVD a few days ago in good condition so thanks for that :)

[@spida1a]

Good to hear! Thanks as always!

[@puretoronto]

Nobody reads the instructions on how to unpack. At least you pushed them out of the way when u grabbed the plunger handle to lift and pull the machine out of the box. Then scratched your head as to why it was broken lol

[@MrDrunkReviews]

No TG16 but a darn amazing video of a beautiful pin! Great video man, thanks for making it!

[@asherthehypebeast9820]

That thing with the plunger happend on spider man 2

[@alejandroalartiz]

Hey dude, your friend Bruce Nightingale, has a KZbin channel? 'Cause he got an amazing game room.

[@AlexPerrine]

1:47 the price is right

[@KGA7771]

say i got a question, when owning just one pinball machine dos would it raise the electric bill sky high or what, just wandering.

[@spida1a]

No, not really. If it's a modern game from the solid state era, the electronics regulate things pretty well. You probably won't notice much of anything with just one game. :) Thanks for watching.

[@KGA7771]

yw and thanks for telling me about it.

[@DijaVlogsGames]

Did you guys spend the first 30 minutes sniffing the machine? I do that with video games, but I'm not really into Pinball collecting. What do they smell like when you take them out of the box? Rereading this comment makes me realize how weird it sounds.

[@spida1a]

Ha ha. Nothing like "New Pinball Smell" my friend. ;)

[@joelpettit25]

I was so first that I could only get the audio!

[@spida1a]

Ha! Now that's a feat! Thanks for watching. :)

[@Progearspec]

Damn it jim !! I'm a doctor not a pinhead !!

[@spida1a]

Lol!

[@avisonlane2040]

nice looking table, shame they say "where noone has gone before" instead of "no man".

[@SurviventheOnslaught]

in another 20 years it will be where no woman has gone b4
