Can't Remember if I posted this or just sent it to my Email list.. But here it is incase I didnt.

So as many of you know I spent Wednesday Visiting Stern to See Avengers and Avengers LE. I spent well over an hour talking To Mr. Gomez about his game, and had the pleasure of him giving me a walk through of the game. I also spent about an hour playing the pro version of the game, let me talk about some of the high lights. First let's start with the Hulk Character, he is perfectly sized for his placement and isn't blocking the view of anything. This Character interacts with the player both in movement of its self and the Ball. Furthermore the Hulk talks to the player and the game in the different call outs. This game features Pinball themed Call outs done by voice actors custom for Stern. These are not simply just rips from the movie, its pinball based call-outs in Avengers voices!!! I will get your two such call outs, First is by Ironman "Jarvis divert all available power to the flippers" the second is The Hulk "When Hulk Get Points?" These are just a couple that I remember off the top of my head, there were many more that I don't remember the exact phrase including one by hulk asking what happened to the metal ball?.

Back Glasses on the LE's look great, the Avengers LE (blue trim's) back glass was one of the greatest back glasses that I have EVER seen in my time in this business. The Trim work on both is powder coated Blue for Avengers LE, and Green for Hulk LE. Both have a Sparkly Candy Finish to them that looks GREAT!
The hulk machine really screams Hulk, and Features a Green DMD!

In the LE the Hulk picks up and Throws over his head one of the areas of the ramp making a super cool effect. Hulk Smash!!!   Hulks 6 ball multi ball in the LE is sure to be a pleaser. The pro gets a 4 ball multi ball.

there is a great picture of the lovely Scarlett Johansson in the play-field in her tight body suit looking quick good, that kinda reminded me of the good old days of pinball if you know what I mean.

Over all the software felt very nice while playing the pro, flipper power, coil power and such all felt very dialed in. LE's are equipped with a shaker motor which I'm told is awesome with the Hulk interaction but we were unable to try a machine equipped with a shaker.

This sums up my general thoughts and review of the new Avengers pinball!
