or almost 50 years The Avengers have delighted fans through comic books, television series and movies. Stern is thrilled to bring the franchise to pinball and provide fans with a new medium through which to enjoy The Avengers. The machine features a dynamic setting that incorporates six iconic Avenger heroes: Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Black Widow and Hawkeye. Players help The Avengers assemble to defeat the notorious villain Loki. The Avengers pinball features an animated twisting and pounding custom molded HULK, drop targets and a spinning cube bonus, in addition to plenty of multiball action.

“Throughout the years The Avengers have cultivated a loyal and energetic fan base,” said Gary Stern, founder, CEO and Chairman of Stern Pinball. “Stern is pleased to have the opportunity to give these fans an Avengers pinball game to enjoy for years to come.”

Avengers is a beautiful game, in all variations. There is plenty to shoot for. All versions have a great custom molded, twisting, interactive Hulk character that players actually hit with the ball, after the player knocks down the drop targets guarding Hulk. Hulk is even more interactive on the LE/Premium, crashing apart one of the ramps. Yes all versions have drop targets – one 4 bank on the Pro and two 4 banks on the LE/Premium. All Avengers versions have a really cool spinning cube target. All versions have some build up rules truly understandable by the casual player, plus rules for the great player. The LE/Premium have some added mechanical components – more computer controlled gates and the like – which allow more varied and complex rules for the great player’s enjoyment.
