Thanks to RetroGames for pointing to a new review of the Terminator 3 pinball machine from sole remaining pinball manufacturer Stern, which features "a Rocket Propelled Grenade launcher in the backglass" as its chief gimmick. Unfortunately, there's no actual high explosives, as "..this interactive mechanism fires balls into targets for high score and progressive game play", but the official product page does point out that this machine was "..designed by Steve Ritchie, formerly of Williams.. [and creator of] Black Knight, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Firepower, and High Speed." The UK Pinball News site has a review of the pintable with plenty more pictures, but concludes that, though fun, Stern's previous release, The Simpsons Pinball Party was probably more enjoyable.
