Avatar = a bunch of initial hype for a less than stellar game, and a lot of people lost money before they were able to see through the smoke and mirrors.
My Price Check response is, buy something else, as Avatar is a stinker that you will lose money on in the future. Avatar is destined to become JASF (Just Another Stern Failure) like Striker Extreme, WPT, Monopoly and others that sell for $2,000 today.
While Stern has made some good games (like SM, FG, TSPP, RBION and BDK), Avatar is not one of them.
