I played the Hulk LE at a local Pinsider's house a couple weeks ago and loved it. Then played a pro at the local arcade down the street and thought to myself, "I have to get one of these". So, after owning a ton of pins I finally called my local distributor and got a NIB Avengers Pro. Woo hoo! Pretty excited about it, should be fun to unbox and enjoy the heck out of it. Plus, the wife loooves transformers and loved this even more so there is a +1! I just loved the art, lighting, call outs. Game seems pretty deep trying to get all the characters activated and a cool concept with tough shots.

Anyone else get their Avengers pro recently and love it? Anything to look out for?

I like this game too, but haven't played a pro yet, only the Hulk LE. So, after playing both, what made you decide on the Pro vs. the LE?

Congratulations. The Hulk package looks awesome.

A great way to start your NIB collection.

Congratulations! I have never bought NIB. I was tempted by Avengers as I love all the Marvel movies, but upon hearing Star Trek rumors, I am waiting for it as I am bit of an admitted Trekkie. The only thing that beats out super heroes for me is science fiction. Plus, I love Steve Ritchie games. Can't wait to play Avenger's though.

Haven't played LE, but pro is awesome. Got mine last week. I had a broken wire on mine as wires were sitting on ball eject coil, but fixed it and it's fine. Plunger is an issue and I already had one bulb go in a week. Other than that, really fun and challenging game!

I went with pro over LE due to price. In my mind, was hard to justify an extra $2500 basically for a ramp and LEDs. Hulk bridge on LE I imagine slows the game down.

Just the price point. I can't necessarily afford the LE and wanting to keep more cash on hand for a current project I am doing.

What was the plunger issue? I know the shooter lane being a flimsy plastic design bounces the ball around and slows it down a ton, but I hear of a metal one being made so I'll be getting that for sure. It'll help for a smoother release of the ball down the lane

Congratulations on getting a brand new pin.

I would go with a pro also on avengers as I would rather have the pro and a another 2K game.
That 2K game would add a lot more play value then what the LE does over the pro.

Enjoy, Enjoy, Enjoy

Congratulations from a LE Blue owner! That Pro is going to be just as sweet!
