This survived an (mass) AfD 10 years ago as 'no consensus' and hasn't improved since, but we are now much stricter in our guidelines on what is notable. My BEFORE failed to find any significant coverage of this toy, and WP:NOTACATALOGUE of pinball machines... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:27, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - The closest I found to coverage in reliable sources is a short description in this book on the history of pinball. But, the coverage in that book is very brief, and is not enough to pass the WP:GNG on its own. Aside from that, I am just finding database entries or "For Sale" pages. It also seems that there was another, unrelated pinball machine themed after the movies that came out in 2018 by a different company, but that machine also does not appear to pass the WP:GNG. Ordinarily I would be fine with this just being Redirected to Stern (game company), but the fact that there are two completely different pinball machines from two different companies with the exact same name means that this wouldn't be an ideal solution.
