The Avatar™ LE version features a number of special improvements over the standard version. These include:-
- The amp suit model has articulated legs that move up and down; in the standard version the suit just falls over and stands back up as gameplay dictates.
- The transporter pod lid opens and closes – the standard version doesn’t open.
- A white power ball is included in place of one of the steel balls, along with a sensor which increases scoring when the special ball is in play.
- A shaker motor adds tactile effects, like a huge console controller.
- There are more models of the characters including a banshee over the ramp, Colonel Quaritch in his amp suit, and Na’vi over the N-A-V-I targets.
- A number of unused lamps on the lamp matrix are now enabled and add more controlled lighting which sits alongside more general illumination lamps.
- A metal bottom arch provides backlighting for translucent blue windows.
- Metal playfield slide rails.
- The original-style lock bar and latch mechanism.
- New game rules and software operate the new playfield devices and features.
- Chrome side rails, lock bar and hinges for a elite overall impression.
In addition, all Limited Edition playfields have an additional hard coat applied. All 250 Avatar LE machines are individually numbered and include a special plaque and certificate of authenticity.
