not bad for movie comic....but for that kind of money...and to be honest,,anything with a magnet gives me shivers.....its hard to shake off that feeling after xmen

I will be putting my money down on the Avengers for sure if after of course to see how everyone who purchases the machine likes it first. It is a lot of money and the same would go for predator, WOZ, etc. I would like to play it first. You don't buy a car without a test drive? Heck these machines cost as much!

In terms of the quality control from Stern, I can say this much.

We all know about the board issues with X-Men. I myself was one of those people who complained. BUT I will be buying Avengers (if I like how it plays) because it was Stern who did something that shocked the heck out of me. After two board issues, instead of going on this again, they replaced the ENTIRE machine. Now instead of owning a #178 wolverine, I will be owning #60 wolverine. They tested the code and replaced the board to ensure it works and it will be arriving on Monday. Now THAT is customer service!

EDIT: To keep with the topic...I love the layout...would of loved a LED screen better, but HULK version is awesome!!

They did say they need to look at my old machine as a diagnostic for people who are having the AUX board issue multiple times. It sounded like they needed an "in house" example so that they can better assist people. I am not sure where they got the #60 machine from. Now I wish I asked!

Edit: I hear that the Avengers pin will not have AUX board. Maybe that there is a plus??

so what is considered premium vs. LE? Your too good to be cheap and own a pro? but you aint rich enough to be limited edition? LOL. This premium reminds me of saying I have a "poor man's Cadillac? What is the difference?
