Quoted from MikeS:

I think Avatar's rules are pretty comparable to both IM and Tron but the game as a whole is not as good as either of those. the rules aren't all that deep but challenging and geared towards shorter games. I'm not a big fan of the theme but the layout has some nice tight shots and I like how the captive ball is integrated into the rules. The playfield does feel a bit barren only having a single ramp though. It's a decent game but between that and GOT Pro I'd definitely opt for GOT especially since they are priced fairly similar.

Good rundown of Avatar. It's definitely from the IM/Tron era of simple rules with some stacking nuance. The captive ball is awesome, and destroying the AMP suit with the narrow target shot is very satisfying. Like IM it has an excellent cinematic sound package. It gets a slightly lower score from IM and Tron due to it's one way orbit and single ramp....but I found it very fun and satisfying to play while I had it.

Quoted from gearheaddropping:

I also own KISS LE. The metallic art is pretty sweet, but I don't think its worth the money.
I honestly think KISS has the best artwork of any of the modern Stern machines. GB is pretty nice as well.

It's OK...there's some bad forced perspective that makes the characters look like they have stubby arms. Overall it's pretty flat. I think it gets the "great art" pass due to it being hand drawn and not Photoshopped....but at the end of the day, it's pretty mediocre hand drawn art. Dirty Donny & Zombie Yeti are bringing a real energy and fun to hand drawn pinball art that's leagues beyond Kiss. Metallica, Ghostbusters, and Aerosmith are far superior art packages, IMO.

Quoted from Tempest:

The price difference is only $300 between the two. I don't know, I a bit torn. The good news is I AM getting one of the two!!!

Yeah for $300 just go LE. $300 is worth it for the powdercoat, mirrored backglass and metallic decals.
