Stern Pinball Announces New Avengers: Infinity Quest Pinball Machines
CHICAGO, IL – September 2, 2020 – Stern Pinball, Inc., a global lifestyle brand based on the iconic and outrageously fun modern American game of pinball, announced today the availability of a new line of pinball machines based on the Super Heroes and Super Villains featured in Marvel Comics’ hit comic book series Avengers. The Avengers: Infinity Quest pinball machines will be available in Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition (LE) models.
For over 50 years the Avengers have delighted fans through comic books, television series and movies. In this pinball adventure, players will transform into their favorite Super Heroes as they battle Thanos and his minions across the cosmos. On his unrelenting quest for intergalactic omnipotent power, it’s a race to hunt down and recover the six Infinity Gems before Thanos gets his hands on them. It’s up to the player to stop Thanos and the Black Order from succeeding in this action-packed pinball experience.
“Like the Avengers, our team of designers, programmers, artists, and engineers have assembled to bring this universe to life in pinball form through incredible artwork, design, visuals, and sounds. This comic book universe has remained a staple in pop culture since first appearing in 1963. Through Avengers: Infinity Quest pinball machines, that tradition will carry on for current and future generations of fans,” said Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc.
The Pro, Premium, and Limited Edition models all feature an interactive Dr. Strange spinning kinetic sling ring disc with dual direction velocity detection, aiding players on their journey to opening portals and starting Infinity Gem quests. All models feature a gravity defying Avengers Tower magnetic lock ramp with gravitational vari-target and magnet hold, capturing pinballs in midair as players unlock Iron Man Multiball. In addition to distinct hand-drawn artwork, all models feature an Avengers Computer Bingo grid 3-target drop bank, a Thor captive ball, Hulk spinning target, custom intricate wireform ramps, and 3 full size flippers.
The Premium and Limited Edition models feature an interactive Dr. Strange motorized pop-up disc scoop, transporting pinballs into an underground Portal, a visible subway capable of holding and staging up to 3 balls through custom playfield windows accentuated with dynamic RGB lighting effects. These models also include a custom sculpted Thanos Infinity Gauntlet integrated with atmospheric light-up gems, a Captain Marvel inverse gravity custom wireform ramp, and a Pym Laboratories vertical up-kicker.
The LE model is limited to 500 units globally. This limited version includes additional unique features such as an exclusive mirrored backglass, exclusive custom themed cabinet artwork, a custom autographed bottom arch, exclusive custom art blades, upgraded audio system, anti-reflection pinball glass, a shaker motor, and a sequentially numbered plaque.
Pricing and Availability:
Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price:
MSRP for sales to USA end-users, before any VAT, GST, Sales Tax, Duties, or other taxes.
Pro Model: $US 6,199
Premium Model: $US 7,799
Limited Edition Model: $US 9,199

Re: Stern New Avengers: Infinity Quest Pinball Machines
Gorgeous and Beautiful pinball.
But it seems to me that there is not a lots of shots. lots of ramps and 3 drop target.
Am i Wrong ?

Re: Stern New Avengers: Infinity Quest Pinball Machines
The negative: For whatever reason, art wise for me the playfield looks too busy. Love the comic art but I'm a huge fan of the last two avengers movie so yeah would have loved the movie tie in but the $$$ involved for licensing would have been impossible to manage to an affordable level
The positive: Keith Elwin. This video of the pin really shows just how fast the shots can loop/flow directly back to a flipper. That's going to be insanely fun. Also thank god they didn't get the movie license, would have been a photoshop nightmare lol

Re: Stern New Avengers: Infinity Quest Pinball Machines
Oh god the world DID NOT NEED ANOTHER MARVEL PIN!!!
That said, holy crap does the Premium look amazing. So much design innovation packed into one package.
I hope this is another hit.
The vertical magnet lock is on Pro too, but that awesome Captain Marvel ramp on the premium/LE rules.
This thing is giving Baywatch a run for its money on the wireform front.

Re: Stern New Avengers: Infinity Quest Pinball Machines
I think this is the first time I am really disappointed that they took something out of the pro.
That right ramp makes the game for me and it was completely removed from the pro. I usually have pro .oney and now would need to upgrade to a premium in order to get the ramp. Don't care about a lifting spinning disc.
Can't justify the extra money when the only thing I want is that extra ramp.
This game would look super sweet beside a Deadpool and Star Wars Comic edition.
