The Avengers (Premium)
About This Machine
The Avengers (Premium) pinball machine, released by Stern Pinball in 2013, followed the original Avengers (Pro) model from the previous year, expanding Stern's Marvel Comics-licensed lineup tied to the blockbuster Avengers film. This solid-state electronic game, designed by George Gomez, brings iconic superheroes Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and others to life on the playfield, with a translite prominently featuring Iron Man.
Gameplay-wise, The Avengers Premium boasts a dynamic experience with its dual flippers, three pop bumpers, two slingshots, and 4-bank drop targets (doubled compared to the Pro edition). A spinning target and spinning posts add an extra layer of challenge, and players can trigger multiball as they guide the heroes through various challenges. The game's upper bridge is a distinguishing feature that raises and lowers to enhance gameplay and create additional obstacles.
The Avengers Premium's design and theme are built around Marvel's iconic superheroes, with the cabinet's side rails, lockdown bar, backbox hinge, and legs finished in black. As part of Stern's broader Marvel Comics catalog, the game reflects the company's continued push into licensed pinball themes during this era.
