I played a Limited Edition for the first time this past weekend and I must say that being owner of a Collectors Edition, this machine seemed quite beautiful...

My review regarding the gameplay does not change obviously since I simply love this game, but I was struck by how beautiful the limited edition is, plus it had the additional accessories and that is what caught my attention the most, including that new topper and artblades, the limited edition has nothing to envy of the collector's edition, and both are definitely a work of art and a very pleasant game.
Personally, I am very happy with this title, I’m very pleased to have it in my home.

I never thought I'd see this game in a Pinball... honestly it's one of those dream themes that never crossed my mind that it would be produced.
My way of qualifying this game is going to be quite selfish on my part and the reason is because I am fan of The GodFather and therefore (obviously) I lean in favor of the production of this Pinball, however I must be honest saying what I didn't like it either (and I mean on a personal level).

Personal cons:

-The 5 month wait was more than boring, I was fed up, this is a purchase of $24,000 CDN Dollars and there is nothing more exhausting than knowing that something this expensive takes so long to produce, 1 or 2 months would be more than enough(period!)
-Jersey Jack made a mistake by including scenes with characters outside of everything related to The GodFather as such... when I saw that, I felt betrayed regarding the originality of the title, genre and theme, plus there are cheesy speeches (very ridiculous) that are, to tell the truth, unacceptable for any person/public that likes The GodFather... but, fortunately! Fortunately!!! You can remove it all in settings, otherwise it would be unbearable to see and hear something so absurd in the middle of the game.
-There are certain shots (Hideout and Compound) that require time to catch the hit, you are not going to hit those shots overnight... in the case of my girlfriend, she was annoyed with the top flipper until that she managed to learn how to use it.

And personal pros:

-Starting with the art, there is absolutely nothing to criticize. Christopher Franchi obviously delivered one more masterpiece into our hands. As much as you are a hater of JJP, or The GodFather, there is no reason for you not to admire this work, take your time and detail the backglass, artblades, cabinets, playfield, and you will only find loyalty to the movie, from the gestures of the characters, the colors, the oranges and the newspaper on the right side of the artblades, McCluskey with the fork, Sollozzo's look, Clemenza with the cannoli box, Luca.etc, absolutely all the characters are in their best expression.
-the topper is just amazing, I'm someone who enjoys having toppers in their games (Stern's Batman66, Attack From Mars and Cactus Canyon remakes from CGC are amazing toppers), however, this topper is another new level... you don't know how amazing is to see this in action! the movement of the gangsters shooting, the lighting and the sound of the machine guns is an achievement that I had not seen in any topper, this is something that went beyond my expectations.
-Regarding the gameplay, I summarize...
This is possibly the game I've seen that has the most negative reviews in many different threads(not GodFather threads)but many of those reviews are baseless... this game is fantastic! the ramps, diverters, the rules are quite nice, and you must understand that The GodFather(the movie) is a Drama, it is not action, and to bring that world into a Pinball it takes a lot!...
The amount of detail that this game has is something beyond the limits, the Golden Wireform Ramps, it has Dual Bi-directional ramps, 29 ball paths(this is an amazing touch), 13 skill shots, that sparkle in the playfield, those lion leg sculptures among other things, are details that make this a spectacular game.
-I add that I take my hat off for this production... I'm not just talking about the rights to The GodFather (1972), I mean having Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan together in a Pinball, and being able to achieve not one or the other but all the characters like Sollozzo, Clemenza, Luca, McCluskey, Emilio Barzini, Tattaglia, Tessio, Carlo, Cicci is something that makes me very happy as a fan... this is one of the top 10 best films made in Hollywood (like it whether you like it or not) and JJP did an excellent job of bringing it to a Pinball.

I have only 5 games at home, 2 Stern, 2 JJP and 1 CGC, I have not been an specific fan of any of those 3 names, I like all 3 equally... however, this game is another level in my point of view.
There is no reason for me or my family to rate this game with less than 10/10, and I must be completely honest with what I will say next.... and that is that Guns N 'Roses was never my favorite band, my top 5 since I was a kid has always been in this order:
1. Kiss
2. Mötley Crüe
3. Poison
4. Guns N 'Roses
5. Warrant (...Yes fellas, I like Warrant :))

So, GN’R not my #1 band, but as a Pinball game it is simply impressive! You don't have to be a #1 fan of that band to enjoy this game, it's really amazing. I must say that of the 21 songs that the Pinball has I only liked 13 until my game came home, now I enjoy them all equally (with the exception of a single song that I definitely don't like the lyrics at all...as in any band) it's amazing how my family and me we’re enjoying this game at home.
My wife occasionally plays my other games especially Batman 66, but when our Guns N Roses was brought to our place, she and my son played 5 hours non-stop that same night, they simply loved this game since the beginning, and I don’t blame them... I absolutely love this game, this is my 1st "Collectors Edition" game and I’m extremely happy with my purchase, 100%.

I must add that the "Coma Lock" should have been part of the SE and the LE’s as well, that’s an incredible touch from JJP, but was made just for the Collectors.

I recommend "Wizard Of Oz - Yellow Brick Road -“ 100%

All WOZ Pinball versions are amazing off course (Standard, Ruby Red and Emerald). But the YBR simply looks extremely beautiful with the upgrades that "Jersey Jack Pinball" added to this LE version.

The glossy decals are incredible, once that you see this elegant touch it is very hard to see your other games in the same room with simple and plain decals(you will see the difference right away). Also, the yellow sparkle it is a very nice touch, the wood apron looks very very nice, the detail of the art blades included it was a big surprise for me and those are a ‘Must Have!’ in this beautiful game, the new topper it is perfect for the theme along with the yellow ramps, and definitely two thumbs way up for the new art of the backglass.

JJP hit a Home Run with this magnificent LE, I rate 10/10 this "Yellow Brick Road", this Pinball it is worth it 100%, I have not just an exclusive...but also a exotic game at home.
