I think the ludicrous prices of the current KISS pinball machine show that people will lap up another KISS pinball machine. KISS fans will buy anything KISS related and the pinball machine would be the holy grail of their collection. As for the make-up, you wouldn't see the members on any product without make-up these days? They haven't gone sans make-up since around 1995?
I bought AC/DC for the uniqueness of a pinball machine with twelve full music tracks from a band that I wasn't originally a huge fan of, but knew and liked all the songs. Being a great game was a bonus. I think the same would be for KISS. I'd buy it regardless of who the band members were under the make-up as long as it had all the songs and the imagery that comes with the band.
Going by Pinside though, the strong rumour for the next music themed pinball machine is Metallica. I was a big fan back in high school, but will wait to see what the machine is like if it gets released.
Back to Avengers, I check every morning to see if any photos are available yet. The count down is on to December 1?
