It's bonkers how quickly this information spreads, you know? It went from it's posted to now it's everywhere. Hobbyman. My dude. Thank you for the thousand biddies. Love you, bud. Good to see you. Poland, how are you? Master, hello. Loser Kid, thanks for the 26. I'm here, Dad. What's up, Z-Dubs? I'm here, Dad. So ready to flip this Elwin title? Yeah. Really? Just? You think so? Morning, Dad? Yeah. Yo, Mr. Books. What's up, buddy? Bonus. yeah we're just gonna take some time this morning to chat about all the information that's being thrown out there right now about the avengers infinity quest it's gonna be lit i'm so excited for this it's better than i thought hell yeah let me make this font smaller because i have to can't read set font size we'll go 18 and then i'll have to use my adult eyeballs to try to read oh we ho a jack was found in the wild what's up everybody already ordered nelly that's what i like to hear is this keish yep Keith Elwin designed this bad boy uh for sure a huge difference between the premium and pro so this may be the first uh elwyn game where you're seeing you look rested I feel great. I actually slept really well last night, even though I stayed up until 1.30 in the morning. This may be the first drastic change in a pro versus premium LE out of Keith. But still, this dude knows how to pack a playfield. Holy moly. Let's go to this here. so as you've all seen the title is the avengers infinity quest this is the second avengers title coming out of stern pinball um the first one was gosh when did that game come out dmd era i'm not even sure um this is the third pinball machine from welcome aboard rookie what's up mar dude I don't even... Oh, it came out in 2012, 2013? Okay. Lit. 2012, 2013. Sounds good to me. Audio preferences. Just make sure this is pumping through the headphones. All right, we're good. I must have... Nothing open. We're good. All right. Some crazy wireframes up there. Yes, that's what I want to get to. The original Avengers was a Sam game. You haven't seen the trailer yet? Well, we're going to watch it here together. uh it's actually keith playing it so you know it's good to go now this game um because of covid i didn't get to see this game come together like i have previous titles so listen i'm as excited as you are to see this finished product okay um we'll watch the trailer first and then we'll we'll dig through some photos and uh it's gonna be it's gonna be sick but yeah when i saw keith putting this together he was still screwing things into wood to see how things would look but that ramp that crazy freaking ramp it was there already and like that was one of three things that was on the play field and i'm like this game though holy moly uh chris thank you so much for the 10 months all right let's get let's get into this let's see if you can hear it They already show the topper too? Oh, this is the game accessories trailer. Wait a second. Did you get a redemption or not? Okay, this is the wrong trailer, but I'm not angry at it. Oh, these are blades. zombie yeti on our there's a nice little hand stop to uh our boy black panther laser engraved all right so let's find the proper trailer because that obviously was not the correct one zombie yeti can do all the pinballs i can't come yes please all right we'll look at the le first we'll look at the le yo toyota boy thank you for the biddies we'll look at the le and then we'll hop over to the premium are you ready let's do it gotta get back to work all right so this is the premium le model and this is the back so look at that wire form it's a short little ramp that shoot straight up, and it's supposed to emulate how Captain Marvel flies through space. Okay? How he just, like, jumps up and around and zips all over the place. Uh, this thing's wire-formed. It's gripping. Crossed with a... ...clean line of... ...okay. Hold spinning target. Sounds up. Let me know if this is too loud. Okay, the interactive doctor's tree spinning thing. This is pretty cool because with enough spins, it freaking comes up, bro. And not only does it come up, but it creates a subway that you can see through the playfield like you're traveling through portals. And then another wire portal kicker. Oh, gosh. Jack, lower the trailer. There we go. Gravity ramp. So check that out. That's actually a magnet at the top of that that grabs it and simulates the balls being locked. Oh, man. That shot right there is going to be too heckin' fast. Now, that ramp right there, the gauntlet ramp, see how you can hit it from all three flippers? Look how fat it is. They plumped it out on both sides so that you can easily hit it from any flipper that is on the game. a post above that to stage the upper flipper gives you an easier way to shoot from that. Let's look at the camera there a little bit. Oh my gosh. Yeah, you can see, look at the thickness of that ring. You see that? Look how big it is. It's bowed out so that it offers a nice way for the ball from the upper flipper and from both lower flippers. Yes, I can drop down the trailer music a little bit. There we go. Don't look so very need to take a geek shop to get Warhammer kids to paint that bad boy. That tower shot. So when I first saw this, the tower shot and that ramp right there, the Captain Marvel ramp. Oh my God, look at that. Those were the two things that were on the game. And, oh, there's a scoop there too. Let's go. Thor Captain Ball. Yeah, this... This is what I like to see. I want all... Wait, was that a... Hold on. Hold on. Are there magnets under the playfield? Did that ball just fly or what? Okay. Love a good Captain Ball? Hell yeah. Oh, so he went with the Iron Maiden style inserts there for the characters that you're collecting. So you got Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow, Thor, and Black Panther. So I'm assuming they're all going to have their own modes. Iron Man multiball. Nice little throwback to an earlier Stern game. Oh, it spells iron on the end. Oh, nice. yeah table extra juicy so look at that circus voltaire action but it's a a spinner instead of a pop-up oh my gosh printing money this is my favorite when they start showing that the balls are like zipping around each other like this there's a shot where it goes up the captain marvel right oh they didn't show it there's a shot where it goes up the captain marvel ramp Oh, that was Captain Marvel, not Black Widow. My apologies. You're right, you're right, you're right, you're right. Thick ramp. Yeah, Captain Marvel. So what's cool is you can shoot this big ramp, and when it comes around and you also shoot the Captain Marvel ramp, it just looks like they're flying around each other. It's bananas. Keith is the new king of playfields. That man doesn't even know the term fan layout. this may be his most fan in quotation marks layout uh but it ain't that you know i'm saying it's that's not what this is all right let's take a look at the pro so the pro differences um where are we at here here we go i turned everything down by the way so hopefully it's not so loud i'm also gonna take it take a seat thank you what's a fan exactly all right this is the pro model so the pro isn't nerfed that so what's interesting is and let's get a quick look at this here um what are we missing so there's an immediate uh you're missing wire forms okay we still have the up post we still have the spinning disc now if i'm not mistaken that there it is so we don't have this doesn't come up anymore on the pro i'm almost certain we'll look at the the feature list in a second so this will still spin but you don't put balls inside of it and uh the captain marvel shot instead of going up instead of going up and over it is like a little horseshoe so it's got a spinner in it so hell yeah but you shoot inside of here and it just comes back around and rolls down onto the flicker there. Love the ball tracking. No Subway, no Captain Marvel. Yeah, that's what I'm seeing. But that, I think that's it. Like, you still get that dope magnetic Avengers power lock. You just don't get the under the playfield action. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love, I love those things, dude. with dual direction velocity detection. Sorry. Oh, it knows which way it's spinning. Keith Elwin is the designer on this. All right, it knows the direction it's going. Okay, let's scope this here. We're also missing the gauntlet back here, the physical gauntlet. We have a captive ball here. Yeah, still have drops on a pro. Yeah, none of the geometry changed. you just lose this ramp here that turns into a horseshoe, and then you don't get the subway. Again, yeah, see, it still had that lock. Man, I don't know what Keith's magic is, but... You don't, he doesn't... I don't know how he doesn't... I don't even know what I'm trying to say. Like, his pros and his premiums are as packed as each other. You get what I'm saying? Also no fuck, yeah. Yeah, that lock shot's pretty sick. The Avenger's Tower. So you shoot through the flipper here, up, and it hits this magnet that grabs it. It's still like... This is still a lot of wire form. Even for a pro. How does he squeeze all that in with a pro budget? Okay, that's what I'm trying to say. Thank you for helping me phrase that correctly. Like, this game right here is packed, right? And this is his pro. I guess is what I'm trying to say. Yeah, there's drops on the pro. There are freaking drops on the pro. A captive ball on the pro. Yeah seeing it just all that sick too That something that goes really unnoticed i feel uh with a lot of pinball stuff is look at the animations on pop or uh spinners go to a pinball machine that you have access to hit a spinner and pay attention to what it does because they've been animated forever it's just no one pays attention to that stuff Yo, D-Booty. What's up, Mardu? 20 Netflix, what's up? Okay, and they got rid of the scoop here. So this is just a target now. This was one of the first. Ooh, it's an Ant-Man target. Hey, buddy. Thor Captain Ball. Shoot Thor Captain Ball to begin Thor Multiball. Excellent. So this thing's got a few multiballs in it as well. I'm glad that they put that spinning thing on there. What's really cool is they put Doctor Strange's magic circle magic... Wow, Jack, way to know your stuff. ...around the flipper button, so to emulate your creating that magic. Listen, I get it. Okay? Calm down. Calm down. Pim Lab is a... Oh, okay. So wait, so what is this? Hold on. What is this right here? Yeah, it drops on a pro. Come on. What is that thing that is right behind the spinner? This thing. So the Sanctum is a target, and then there's a giant... A giant... For all intents and purposes, just a tower? Okay. I see what they did here. so this is just to show you what you're going to get out of it and then they put a cool dome light above it all right you see that right there that's the sanctum that is rad avengers tower magnetic box look at it would you look at it though where does he get all these wonderful toys I want to look at the oh nice the Hulk spinner has is there a way to look at these fatter oh man so what do you think about a new Avengers like the first Avengers is good right the color on this thing is screaming open image in a new tab true I'm just trying to like shuffle through them oh wait hold on the Marvel site has them all listed right here you can go through them like this are Ellie's already sold out? I don't know but look at this thing holy crap it looks fun that's all that matters holy F that's pretty cool control scroll there you go earth's mightiest internet wait a second scarlet witch vision do you see this right here where my mouse is that's adam warlock i wonder so this is telling the end game story or no the infinity gem story from the comic books which adam warlock plays a yo this i wonder i wonder how intense this gets look at this oh my god yellow is wild it's yeah it's holy man all right who do we got here yep we got the whole squad that is pretty freaking rad soul gems black order nice they made soul gem its own big important thing comic story arc for sure yeah huge warlock wizard mode for sure oh baby look dude good job zombie yeti there's something to be said about you know go look at a pinball machine without the art on it and no matter how busy the game looks like geometry wise it still looks heckin empty like it is missing a lot and art brings things oh man ladies and gentlemen welcome to the inner the enlightenment age of pinball hell yeah that thor font does something to me oh oh zombie yeti's incredible yeah look at that Keith Elwin signature everyone take a screenshot and sign your own checks. Drunk, thank you for the six months. Love you. Molded plastics. Molded plastics for what? Let's look at the pro. Let's get a look at you. The buildings. Oh, instead of the way they piece it together, like the four pieces. Designer of the year three years in a row. That's what I'm saying. Jay Pavlok, thank you for the five gifties, my dude. That's very kind of you, friend. Thank you so much. Black Panther. So I wonder... Welcome aboard, Tex. I wonder... Okay, there's a good shot of the tower. Top down of the tower. Honestly, I love that this ramp works. This thing is just so wild looking. But they bowed it out here so that the upper flipper could hit it, and then they left it normal over here so that you could hit from all flippers. What a cool time for a pinball. I love seeing all the new games coming out. Yeah. September is going to be pretty, pretty cool. Alright, so that's the Sanctum. It's up there. That ramp is thick. It looks like a boat. I do like you got an up post here to help stage that upper flipper so that you can actually make a shot from it without. Because shooting up there and it rushing back down, the timing would be hard. Zero, that's awesome. Congratulations. All right, let's look at the. Now, there is no the feature matrix and stuff. For over 50 years, the Avengers have delighted fans through comic books, television series, and movies. This pinball adventure, players will transform into their favorite superheroes 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 it's a spare it's a spare it's thick ramps um let's see what do we get what do we got uh the pro premium and le models all feature an interactive doctor strange spinning kinetic sling ring disc oh with dual direction velocity detection so not only does it know the direction it's going, but how fast it's going. That's pretty cool. I have no idea who the Avengers are, by the way. You're about to find out, dog. Aiding players on their journey to open portals and starting Infinity Gem quests. All models feature a gravity-defying Avengers Tower magnetic lock ramp with gravitational very... Hold, hold, okay, hold on. All models feature a gravity-defying Avengers Tower magnetic lock ramp with gravitational very target... with gravitational very target... and magnet hole. Gravitational... Do they mean... Hold on. Where... I'm guessing... can detect how high it goes in the tower. There's probably some optos here. I mean magic. I mean magic, Internet. Jack, listen. You're Stern's ambassador, bro. It's magic. It's freaking magic. Okay, sorry. With, yes, a gravitational vary target. Yes, exactly. Foxco, thank you for six. The premium and LE models feature an interactive motorized pop-up disc scoop transporting pinballs into an underground portal, a visible subway capable of holding and staging up to three balls. Oh my goodness.

The gameplay looks banging. All right. I cannot wait to see how they approached the animations on this game. You know, are we getting like full 3d like battle sequences? Is it going to be comic books, like, um, animated comic book storytelling style? which version are you getting uh that's a great question so if i'm getting a pv model so i'm gonna get the game after like immediately after we're done streaming it so i'm guessing i you know i can't tell you uh just know that we're getting one we're getting one very quickly and we're going to generate every ounce of content. We're going to squeeze this son of a gun. We're going to squeeze it. Oh, it looks like the Deadpool animations. Oh, that would be pretty cool. Broward scores, what's up? Has gameplay stream date been announced? If Stern hasn't said anything, then I can't say anything. Yeah, the spinner lets you know which way you're spinning. Baba, thank you so much for the four months. September release, it looks like. Oh, yeah. I mean, Stern is not going to announce a game and not ship it within, like, a few weeks. A couple weeks, even.

But I'll say this. There's pop bumpers on this game. Did you see that ball in the pop bumpers once? Good. Three spell out rules at entrance of gameplay.

When I first saw this game, it was bare wood, and Keith had the idea for the vertical magnet tower and the Captain Marvel ramp already in place. Just to confirm, Keith Elwin designed all this. True, yes, that is correct. Chauncey. Just buy more pinball machines. Did Stern announce when we're going to see it? The internet. Someone go check Stern's website and see if they announced anything. Big ramp can be shot with all flippers. Yeah, it's pretty dope. looking for the announcement do do do they announced stream dates in the email there's an email nothing on instagram about the stream they sent out an email what did the email say i would i would love confirmation from at least two people nine nine and nine eleven okay anyone else anyone else october 9th 5 p.m and 3 okay well all right shit there you go uh you finally something for my for my insider account well there you go so um both streams are going to be um with me obviously i'm jack danger so tune in so it says wednesday september 9th at 5 p.m cd okay there you go there's the announcement the first time you're going to see this game live flipped is going to be 9 9 at 5 p.m central okay and then on the 11th i'll be streaming again so here's how we're doing this okay we liked how the turtle stream went right so the first broadcast we do is going to be not on the front page with the entire team in tow okay uh why are we doing that well if we were on the front page it would be impossible for the pinheads to ask any questions you get what i'm saying so the first stream is going to be for the pinheads to talk to the team ask their questions and then we can go through like the the pointing stuff out the seeing what's going on and i like when i do these reveal streams with Keith because he's just like he just gets it gets in gets out in and out like that set up two streams and then on the 11th is going to be the front page where it's just good old Jack Danger blowing it up okay um did the email say anything about models because I don't again I don't want to say anything that isn't public like what models I playing It a Keith Elwin table so it probably going to kick your butt a lot True I like to see some models Okay. Great. Yeah, so the first stream is going to be the LE Premium, and the second stream is going to be the Pro. Okay? We want to have the game that has the max features so that we can show everything off. And then the pro is for me to beat up and get beat up by. I can help the comic book lore. There you go. If we go by art, nine, nine, pro second. That's right. Pro 11th. Yep. So yes, clear your schedules. All right. Nine, nine, 5 p.m. Central. I will be with the team at Stern via, I don't know how via, streaming the LE Premium. And then two days later on the 11th, I'm going to be back at Stern by myself, streaming on the pro on the front page. Now, we're doing the front page a little different this time. and uh i think you're i think you're going to be pleasantly surprised with um what we're doing i think you're going to be pretty surprised it says you're on the marvel page on friday man they don't leave anything can i get some fucking surprises here sorry for swearing okay beep uh all right well there it is i'm gonna be on marvel's twitch channel i'm gonna be on marvel's twitch channel i had a meeting with marvel yesterday and listen they knew who Jack Danger was I'm like what's up they're going to have someone from the Marvel team of they're going to pull from their host pool to be remoted in asking me questions and talking to me about it and I recommended one of their hosts so hopefully they pick him um but my buddy justin warner uh you might know him from the food network he works a lot with guy fieri he is marvel's cook he does a lot of cooking stuff for marvel and i was like yo justin's my boy i want him asking me the question so i'll take anybody but hopefully it's justin uh at talking to me about what's going on oh yeah look at this thing fridge bro it's this game's dripping. Just wire forms galore. Good frickin' job zombie yeti. This thing screams. Thanos. Thanos. Your partnership with Thanos is at risk. Who doesn't know the international pinball sensation Jack Danger? I'm really stoked that Adam Warlock is on this playfield. right oh it doesn't seem like the pros many toys but so many ramps that's all that matters give me stuff to shoot at i don't i don't care about the toys thanos of course first appearance in iron man 55 everyone needs stuff that yeah right shell anyone else want this pin pepega what's up pepcorn hats off to yeti i know he said last time he wouldn't do two games back to back but he's on fire. I would venture to guess that Yeti is going to be busy for the rest of his life. Unless he does something super stupid, which he does all the time. I love you, Jeremy. He's going to be busy with Stern for a very long time. Gravity-defying ramp with gravitational very-target magnet hold. That is something. Anyone remember the first Avengers table? Yeti's busy with stirring his good news for all of us. Yeah, I agree. He does them good arts. There's Joshua Clay, by the way. I can't believe they got him to model for something. This is one of the lead artists at Stern. And he used to be a tattoo artist. and now he does a lot of the art stuff a lot of the 3d a lot of the just freaking everything you think you could hit all those ramps hell yeah dog let's see does anything look particularly tight that is that is a great question does anything look particularly tight um so this shot looks pretty easy it's got a nice lead in the shot going to the tower the orbit Also, a beautiful lead in plenty of space. This ramp is right up the middle, right? If anything, I think the Captain America shot might be the hardest. The Captain America shot might be the hardest shot. But both of these ramps look easy peasy. And this thing also is pretty wide. Tattoos are for dirty people. How dare you? cool just making sure i'm not getting yelled at um yeah both orbits look super clean and easy the far right shot also being so late with such a big lead in and nothing in front of it is going to be pretty pretty easy to hit too um yeah i none of this looks impossible backhandable well i'll tell you this well no i won't tell you this i wonder if that captain marvel ramp is backhandable huh because it doesn't it it doesn't go up super high what feeds the upper flipper you do you shoot it up there into this it's like a vertical ramp that has a magnet and then when it comes down an up post stops it to feed the flipper so yeah i mean these all look pretty hittable i do like like stuff like this he thought about this put a post here it looks like it's blocking some of the ramp but it's a part of the ramp that you can't actually shoot and if a ball's rolling down it's not going to roll straight down the drain it's going to doink around the upper right ramp feeds it also oh yeah it does doink it down so you shoot it up comes around feeds and plops it right there so this flipper can shoot the spinner honestly you could I don't think you could shoot Captain America with this shot this isn't smoothed out he put a bunch of posts right here is that wire form that feeds the upper flipper also yeah what a wild looking game show the video promo again yeah I think we have to for the pro nah we're looking at we're going to look at the steak 3D model. Oh, baby. It has a start button? Computer Grid Awards. Is that Bruce Banner in a torn-up shirt at his computer? that's amazing. Interactive doctrine spinning kinetic sling brain disc. And then it comes up for the subway. So good. What does the action button do? It lights up. I'm sure he'll figure out something to do with this. Avengers Tower might get a lot. I'd love that thing. Not an opto-spinner. I'm sure opto-spinners are... I'm sure they add a lot to the bomb. I mean, he's nailing that. Hittable from all flippers. Look at this. Oh. Oh. Third time. Oh. Drink the cams. I'm trying to catch LCD art off the glare. I'm... I would venture to guess that anything you put... Okay. Hold on. This ball... It's the camera, bro. Look at this. Both of them hit the camera. Bonk, bonk. That's pretty great. Triple entrance. Oh, that's what they were talking about. Dang. You don't like that, Paul Search? Can you summon the post that stops the ball? Cool game, Jack. Nice job, Stern. Heck yeah. Oh, I wonder. With a flipper hold? Yeah, what I was going to say about animations and stuff is, you're seeing this gameplay. I'm sure they didn't have any in there. This just has the code to make it flip and stuff. Damn, that ramp was so cool. you guys are freaking savages where's the dungeon they filmed this in it's in the factory jack danger gives us tips on how to elevate our pinball game well okay cool that looks exciting yo the game looks sick you should ask keith which shots in the game are kinetically satisfying uh well i can tell you your captive ball and your um spinning disc that had eight words on it but I love it. Gotta sell that stuff, dude. Um, so, final conclusion. It's an Elwin game, right? You are not going to feel like you're missing too much if all you can afford is a pro. That's what Elwin does best. He knows how to make the pro feel like a packed game, but your LEs and premiums are over the top. You know what I'm saying? Um, yeah. I can't wait to show it. Remember, on the 9th of this month, which is seven days from now, we're going to be revealing the gameplay for this for you, live from the Stern Factory, with the entire team, and not on the front page so you can have your questions ready. And that is something that I will, that's your homework. If you have any questions about the game, the development cycle, any questions for the team, Keith, anybody, get those questions ready. And I'll make sure before, like right when we go live, I'll tell you how to format that question so that the team can answer it. I just want to make sure we get everyone's names right so if you at them, they can answer what's going on. and then on the 11th i will be on marvel's twitch page that's right uh streaming the pro by myself with one of their hosts uh remotely pulled in so that they can ask me questions about the game while i'm blowing it up all right and what's going to be interesting about that stream is i'm not going to be streaming directly to twitch i'm going to stream to them and then they'll have control over like cutting interstitials in and doing like i'm sending my signal to their whole tv studio and then they're spitting it out to the front page of twitch um and this isn't just the front i'm almost certain it's a full promotion takeover i'm not i'm not sure i'm not sure think of how many dimensions they had to visit to collect all these infinity gems yeah i can't wait whatever ever happened the tv show listen hold tight okay that's good um well that's it internet remember the 9th at 5 it's going to be lit i got my dr strange cape um i might dress up as the no i don't want to walk around with fake guns strapped to my side i see what you're doing with your beard shut up hoary hosts of hagaroth um yeah all right i'll see you tonight we're gonna be playing some something stern relate maybe we'll play some guardians of the galaxy to get hyped yeah i think we'll play guardians tonight just to stay on the uh the the marvel tip thanks jack ordered an le tell them dead flip sent you uh all right folks i'll see you tonight have a wonderful time i'm gonna post this to youtube immediately if you want to go back through it with links to everything we just looked at.
