Predator Pinball Machine by Pinball Brothers

Enter the jungle and become part of the hunt with the Predator Pinball Machine

The Predator Pinball Machine by Pinball Brothers takes the atmosphere, action and tension of the original 1987 film and builds it into a physical pinball experience you can come back to night after night.

Original movie scenes, familiar quotes and Alan Silvestri's score set the scene, but this isn't a machine that relies on its licence alone. You're shooting ramps, taking on missions, locking balls in the choppa and minigun, and facing an interactive Predator as you work your way deeper into the jungle.

For a games room, cinema room or home bar, it's the sort of machine people recognise before you've even explained what they're looking at. Then you hit Start, and the hunt begins.

Let the experts help you find your perfect Predator Pinball Machine

A premium pinball machine has to do more than look good in photographs. It needs to suit the person playing it, the room it's going into and the type of experience you actually want.

The Predator is particularly interesting if you want a film-themed machine with plenty happening physically on the playfield. Its wide-body format accommodates ramps, ball locks, magnets, drop targets, spinners and several interactive mechanisms.

The Predator Pinball Machine in a nutshell

1. Face an interactive Predator – The game's central enemy isn't confined to artwork or a screen; Pinball Brothers has incorporated an interactive, attacking Predator into the physical experience.

2. Escape in the choppa – An interactive choppa incorporates a physical ball lock, bringing one of the film's most recognisable elements directly onto the playfield.

3. Fire up Ol' Painless – The minigun spins, shoots and produces muzzle flashes, turning another familiar piece of Predator weaponry into an active part of the machine.

4. Play inside the world of the original film – Original movie scenes, clips, quotes, call-outs and Alan Silvestri's score help tie the physical pinball action back to Predator rather than simply using the film as cabinet decoration.

The Owner's Insights on the Predator Pinball Machine

For me, the interesting thing about the Predator is just how much physical stuff Pinball Brothers has put onto the playfield. You've got the choppa, minigun, Predator, ramps, magnets and drop targets, so when you're standing at the machine it looks busy and mechanical rather than screen-led.

I can see this working particularly well in a cinema room or games room where the owner already has an attachment to the original film. Put a few friends around it and Predator gives everyone an instantly recognisable theme while the gameplay provides the competition.

It's also a wide-body machine, which is worth considering when planning your room.

I'd recommend it most strongly to somebody who genuinely likes Predator and wants an involved physical pinball experience. If the film means nothing to you, I'd compare it against other themes before making your decision.

Why you'll love the Predator Pinball Machine

It feels like Predator rather than merely looking like Predator. Original film scenes, movie quotes and call-outs are combined with Alan Silvestri's score, helping connect what's happening on the playfield with the atmosphere of the 1987 film.

There's plenty happening underneath the glass. Three flippers, two magnets, three spinners, multiple ramps, drop-target banks, ball locks and interactive toys mean you've got physical shots and mechanisms to learn as you become more familiar with the game.

Some of the film's most recognisable elements become part of the gameplay. The choppa isn't simply a model sitting on the playfield – it contains a physical ball lock. Ol' Painless spins and shoots with muzzle flashes, while the Predator itself is interactive and attacks.

It's built to keep the theme going across the whole machine. From the Yautja apron display and Predator drop targets to the Wristblade Gauntlet and Camp Attack ramps, the theme carries through into the shots and mechanisms you're actually interacting with.

Your life with the Predator Pinball Machine

It's Saturday evening and you've got a few friends over.

Someone recognises Predator across the room and walks straight over. A game starts, the soundtrack kicks in and within a few minutes you're trying to lock another ball while somebody behind you is telling you which shot you've just missed.

Next game, they're playing. Then somebody wants the high score.

That's the appeal of putting the right pinball machine in a home entertainment room. It gives everyone something to gather around and actually do together.

When you're on your own, you've still got missions, shots and mechanisms to learn. When people come over, you already have the makings of a competition.

And because Predator is such a distinctive theme, the machine still has something to say about the room even when nobody's playing it.
