Notes:

Features the cast of the theatrical Star Wars movies known as Episodes IV, V, and VI. The Pro translite features all the major characters from these movies. The cabinet decals are exclusive to this Pro model.

The manufacturer advertised in their Game Features Matrix that an "Escape Feature on the right drain lane saves a draining ball when lit" but our picture of this area of the playfield does not show a gate or other obvious indication of how a draining ball is saved.

Steve Ritchie told us, "There were 23 different art panels to do across all three models, including 3 individual plastics sets, 12 cabinet side & back box art. Lucasfllm requested that each panel be unique."

The full model number as shown on the cabinet sticker is PINBALL I-00J5 * STRWR PRO.
