8 - Stern kit: extra plastic ring under Black Widow ramp to reduce Hulk saucer drop-outs, Loki lock functional sticker (didn't work, made another mod), replaced green plastic behind Hulk which had been broken at the thin point around the middle (replacement also broke later), plastic ceiling above Black Widow ramp to keep ball from flying off (made further tweaks to ceilings to tune better).
9 - Tuned ramp entries, Black Widow ramp, Black Widow spinner, hulk bridge. All work beautifully & reject few shots.
10 - Replaced random GI's random RGB X-Mas lights pattern with color-matching tasteful frosted LEDs.
11 - Replaced all flashers with color-matching LEDs.
12 - Added rubber foot bumpers inside sling coils to soften blow--solved problem of sling airballs.
13 - Added rubber foot bumper inside Hulk to raise his arms slightly to reduce the number of balls trapped at his elbows/forearms. Green-markered visible (barely) hardware holding Hulk together, so no shiny metal parts showing.

14 - Added 2nd post near right outlane to block off a short dead-end path where the ball would occasionally venture & meander.
15 - Newest code update, V1.7, 2016/01/16.
16 - Simple blue painter's tape on backbox fluorescent light to lessen glare of backglass that obscures Hulk area.
17 - Thorough journey through the self-tests to confirm that all switches, lamps, flashers, coils, & mechanisms work.
Teeny weeny issues:
18 - Green plastic behind Hulk cracked--doesn't show, stays put.
19 - Tiny chip on cabinet right side art by Black Widow's shoe--colored yellow to blend relatively well--looks as if she's kicking up dirt--pretty subtle.
20 - Hulk has some scuffed knuckles from too much Hulk Smash!
According to illustrious Pinsider Troz, who held on to the machine for about 7 months when I was moving, "Your Avengers by the way is so nicely dialed. I've never played one where the Black Widow ramp works nearly every time!" High praise indeed. Sure, he demolished all my high scores, but it beat putting the game in storage! :]
Thanks,
