I joined the club last week! I've been wanting to try an Avatar in my collection for a long time and it's hard to believe I finally have one. Over the years I've had a few get away from me, always for one reason or another... some were priced way over market, some I didn't see until it was too late, some were when I didn't have room, or I passed on a few Avatars because they were heavily routed. Seemed like I'd never get one.

So this beauty came along, 960 original HUO plays on it and still with original code. Couldn't pull the trigger fast enough but I had to pay a little more than I though I ever would for a Pro. I figured another super low plays one like this was improbable.

First thing I did was update code (it was running 1.06), shop the machine, and add LED's. It looks and plays like new now.

The only issue I have is when I launch the ball, the ball deflects off the gate in the upper left on top of the lanes and the ball goes airborne... has anyone else had this issue and if so, how do I fix it? I've never had this happen before and the gate just appears to be another normal gate (no idea why this one is launching the ball in the air).

I also want to add a mylar to the magnet, is the standard magnet mylar from pinball life acceptable or what did you guys use?

Also planning on adding the banshee toy and a figure to the Amp suit if I can find the right ones on ebay.
