Quoted from Uncanny:Stern Avengers. As successful as the "Marvel Studios" Avengers movies have been, this is one disappointing pinball machine. Black Widow vs Hawkeye as a mode? Really? With Avengers 2 and Infinity + Endgame movies i really think Stern can make a wayyyyyy better pinball machine if they try again. A better Avengers pinball machine would definitely make some money on location and for home buyers.
Ironman release in 2008
Hulk in 2008
Iron man 2 in 2010
Thor in 2011
Captain america 2011
the avengers in 2012 alongside the pin
Avengers was popular then, but you can't look back on the pin now based on what was going on then and say it should have been better. There was literally only one Avengers movie.
That is also the time when pinball was just starting to pick back up. JJP was making announcements but Avengers and WOZ were release within months of each other. Things still hadn't "taken off" at that point. Stern just figuring out they could gouge people on different trim options.
All that aside, the LE is more fun
