Looks good to be fair,
Looks... ok? The double scoop is kinda cool, the time machine magnet isn't anything particularly exciting. Looks like it could have some good flow though.

lost a rail for the pro.
Very very early 1st impression - looks pretty good. The Metallica ramp (with the illuminated cut out), Star Trek side ramp, LOTR ring shot.
Good to hear it includes concert footage too, a step up from the Aerosmith animations.

And the mechanical ramp for the time machine... anything else?

CHICAGO, IL and LAS VEGAS, NV – January 4, 2022
Over 40 million records sold. More than 40 years of unparalleled creativity. Countless sold-out tours. An impassioned global fan base. A star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Inductions into the Canadian and U.S. Rock and Roll Halls of Fame. Officers of the Order of Canada. Countless other awards and recognitions.
That’s all very nice.
For the three band members, however, it was never about the accolades. It was always about their music, their friendships, their band, their fans, and now:
PINBALL!!!
Stern Pinball, Inc. proudly announces a new line of pinball machines celebrating the iconic Canadian progressive rock band, Rush. Rush pinball machines are available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition (LE) models.
Rush first burst onto the scene when its song, Working Man, crossed the pirate radio airwaves from Toronto, Canada to Cleveland, Ohio and then onto the rest of North America and the world. Their magnum opus, 2112, represents one of progressive rock’s greatest works. Rush’s music remains in constant rotation to this day. Absolutely uncompromising in every conceivable way, the band featured bassist, keyboardist, and lead vocalist Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson, and the late drummer, percussionist, and lyricist Neil Peart.
Stern’s Rush pinball machines, reflect the energy, excitement, and experience of a live Rush concert. In this epic music pinball adventure, players will travel with Rush through time. Immersed in exclusive Rush concert footage and guided by custom speech from Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee, and fellow Canadian Rock Hall of Famer, Ed Robertson of the Barenaked Ladies, players will experience Rush and their iconic music as never before. This Rush pinball concert under glass features sixteen iconic songs, accentuated by sound and lighting effects. Songs include Headlong Fight, Far Cry, One Little Victory, Working Man, 2112, Tom Sawyer, The Spirit of Radio, Freewill, Cygnus X-1 (Book One: The Voyage and Book Two: Hemispheres), The Big Money, Subdivisions, Limelight, Fly By Night, La Villa Strangiato, Bastille Day, and Red Barchetta.
Rush pinball machines include Stern’s new Insider Connected™ system, which enables players to interact with the game and a global network of players in a variety of ways. Stern Insider Connected provides dynamic entertainment and player engagement features. Insider Connected also provides an operator focused toolset to drive location play and remotely manage every aspect of the machines. Registration for Insider Connected is available at insider.sternpinball.com/.
Travel back in time with Rush by shooting pinballs through a custom sculpted, electromagnetic Time Machine. Players will explore Red Barchetta, Subdivisions, and Fly By Night Multiball action. The Rush Premium and LE model pinball experience includes a motorized ramp with custom lighting effects and a custom sculpted Clockwork Angels Clock, inspired from Neil Peart’s bass drum from their Time Machine Tour. This motorized clock illuminates, and when it strikes midnight players will be transported to a Headlong Fight Multiball frenzy.
Additional features on the Premium and LE models include a custom subway system, locking pinballs to unleash a high energy Far Cry Multiball. The ‘Dead End’ vertical upkicker propels pinballs up an additional wireform ramp return for non-stop pinball action. As an encore, a three-bank of musical drop targets guard a secret ball lock for players to discover an adrenalized Freewill Multiball to continue their musical pinball journey.
Limited to 1,000 LE machines globally, the highly collectible LE version includes the Expression Lighting System™. With 96 intelligent RGB LEDs, the Expression Lighting System enables full color spectrum control. Positioned in pockets cut into the cabinet sides to provide color themed full playfield illumination, this integrated playfield lighting system is synchronized to custom light shows specifically designed for every song and dynamically responsive to game events. The LE version also includes an exclusive full color mirrored backglass inspired by Clockwork Angels, iconic custom cabinet artwork, custom high gloss and powder-coated guitar-shaped pinball armor, a custom designer-autographed bottom arch, exclusive inside art blades, upgraded audio system, anti-reflection pinball playfield glass, shaker motor, a sequentially numbered plaque, and a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Stern Chairman and CEO Gary Stern.
“Partnering with Rush, we created a musical pinball experience that every fan will want to explore. Incredible music, memorable toys, unique mechanical pinball action, and custom speech will make players feel like they are on tour with the band,” said Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO. “In memory of Neil Peart, we have also decided to support the Neil Peart Research Award sponsored by the Glioblastoma Foundation as it researches cures for this deadly brain cancer.”
Rush pinball machines will be showcased virtually to the press and public for the first time at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas from January 5th – 8th.

under flipper shot like Star Trek and it has the usual BORGED me over three lane annoyance. I so wish he'd stop doing that.
Looks like it could be good fun, some really nice shots and flow. Never heard of the band before the game, but if it's fun, it's fun!
The double scoop is interesting. Imagine if that was a super heavily routed game like some of the Gottlieb's back in the day. All of a sudden those 2 scoops become one mega scoop

Yeah I like it. X-Men has a great flowing layout and this definitely reminds me of X-Men. Rules are key, as always
Prefer the art on the pro. The music is better than I thought. Expected more from the centre toy Time machine. Not sure why you would buy one unless you are a fan of the band, nothing on the pin that makes it a must buy in my view.
Nah.
Looks more fun than Zep, mind.
Layout looks alright. Seems like a single megaplastic for the ramps - luckily looks like it won't be too much pain to take out for maintenance.
The ball captivator behind the drops looks pretty cool actually - I always like having more than a rubber behind drop targets.
Same artist as LZ I'm guessing? Playfield style looks similar.

Not seen any Ripley's that had mullered scoops, so the 2 scoops should be fine

I’d never heard of rush til a month or so ago, so I’ve no interest in the theme whatsoever !
But first impressions of layout, and watching the short promo vid, got to say it looks more appealing to me than Godzilla did at the reveal
