How much do pros for this go for at the moment please?
Just want to make sure my valuations are about right
 
I always thought it was called Avengers Infinity Quest because of the infinite number of combos you can get... Because of the endless flow

But for me Captain America (1) to Marvel (2) to Black Widow (3) to Thanos (4) to Upper Orbit (5) to Tower (6) is one of the sweet combo sets in pinball you hit that your feeling good about yourself

But you could continue... I think my record is like a 18-20 combo on it

It’s just a piece you add to the wireform that stops the ball falling out the side basically.

Captain Marvel ramp fix

Does your Captain Marvel ramp leave you frustrated because of all the rejects? If so it's not your fault! The design of the ramp is flawed causing tons of rejects. This simple fix clears up all those issues. *Please allow 10-14 days for completion. More info can be found here...

Ah OK, thanks, looks like something Col could knock up. EDIT: I thought it was the clear plastic rather than what it actually is.

I do like a physical ball lock, I'll be back at LeVel in Preston in a week or two so will play the Pro some more.

The premium that was up recently got reduced to 7.5k so 6k for a pro seems about right?

It's hard to gauge prices, whilst Russ had to drop to £7.5 to sell his, it doesn't necessarily mean all Premiums are now £7.5. It all depends on availability, desperation, timing etc.

£6k sounds too cheap for a Pro. I should keep schtum if I'm thinking of getting one 😙.

Let me know your thoughts, having never played a pro, the flow looks pretty much the same my gut would agree that the ball lock thing actually interrupts the game, but one man's pinball pleasure is anothers pain.

Pricing at the moment really tough, I personally was thinking £6.5k is about right for a nice one. I would put almost all premiums at around £8k in this age bracket. Dec and Jan are always terrible times to sell, you have Christmas costs in Dec and tax man, I've spent too much at Christmas, payday really long costs in jan

Bond and Avengers were the highlights of my visit to LeVel, 2 Pins I'd dismissed until I actually played them. Foo Fighters on the other hand...💩.

Haven't played foo fighters yet a friend has a premium. Yeh it's funny that, you can play a game everyone loves but you don't. For me it's Elvira house of horrors, hate it. Godzilla I didn't like at first, just because I absolutely hate the theme Godzilla the movies and TV I personally think are 💩, so took me ages to get passed that, however having put the hours in, it is very good, helps if you change the music in the settings to 1950s fits the game better. Elvira the more I play it the more I hate it 🤷‍♂️.never played bond, bond is a dream theme for me but pictures haven't got me excited, that one I should try and play, but I don't know of any on northern Ireland.
 
I had AIQ pro for a while, best shooting game ever!! It's just a pleasure to zone out and nail combos. The rules are fine and not that deep in fact. The game is let down by the audio & video package being super bland. If considering the premium you have to ask yourself how much is ONE ramp worth?! Ok it's a sweet ramp but still... 🤔

Good to know thanks 👍
 
Any one know what the "action button champ score is?
How do you get it ?
 
To my knowledge you first have to get the mind gem and place it on the shot of your choice, once done you'll get the ability to hit the action button to spot the shot you've placed it on during a mode or multiball (I'm not sure if there's any limitations to what you can collect aside from soul gem final shot?) So if you place it on black panther for example and have a combo jackpot lit you can use it to collect that.

However it also changes based of the status of the avenger on that shot. You get one use at first and another when you collect the avenger but they can only be used on that shot only. A level 1 avenger adds another usage and lets you spot the most valuable shot running at the time. Level 2 lets you spot every shot one time and then resets your usages down to zero. It has different rules if on the drop targets or captain marvel too but I don't know how exactly they work.

So for the action button champ, just have the highest value collected when you use the button. Any level 2 usage during mode + multiball should work wonders, especially during something like reality gem with a nice multiplier. Alternatively a hard mode soul gem usage towards the end of the mode will also be a good candiate.

I'm sure someone can correct me if I've gotten that wrong!!

Thanks so much for that detailed explanation.

I will give it a try, trying to erase scores from the doors Mrs doors.

Have to say what a great shooting game
