I just finished reading the first interview with Jack. Very insightful and a great read. You can tell by reading the interview just how passionate Jack is about WOZ, his company and staff. The Joe interview should be pretty cool too. We may get some more Hobbit news in the next couple interviews!

Just returned home a business trip ... nestled in my pile of mail were these gems:

Nice quality job Jonathan, thanks!

Can anyone tell me if these interviews are the ones from issue #2? I'll be picking up my copy in a couple weeks, so I can wait if I'll be able to read them in the issue. If not, I'll jump in now.

Thanks.

Nice interview. Jack should get orders just based on how passionate he is about pinball.

These are all new interviews. They're not in Issue 2 and I probably won't publish them in Issue 3 either.

Minor typo:

"We did pot some Wizard of Oz games out there that just didn’t have the rule set in."

pot -> put

Love the interviews, thanks for doing these. The magic words you just spoke though were "Issue 3", can't wait!

Typo corrected. That goes a lot easier than in print

The third free interview of this week is ready to go, but waiting for approval on one question. Since it's the Labor Day weekend that answer may take a while, but once it's in, the interview will be published. In the mean time the interviews with Jack Guarnieri and Joe Balcer are still available on the Pinball Magazine website.

The third free interview of this week is now published: http://www.pinball-magazine.com/?p=1467. This time we discuss the latest developments on Wizard of Oz and The Hobbit with JJP's graphic animator Jean-Paul de Win. Enjoy!

In case you enjoy these in-depth interviews, maybe a copy of Pinball Magazine No. 2 could interest you. See www.pinball-magazine.com/shop for all the details.

Quoted from BOBCADE:

See this post for links to vendors that may still have a copy available: http://www.pinball-magazine.com/?p=1403 . I may collect a few copies at Expo, so maybe I can help you out after Expo.

Thanks, got it at the goat store.

Ever think about a full digital release on iPad or something?

Thanks for the interview. I like his attitude about the LCD. It has a lot of possibilities to tap, but it shouldn't ever become a video game in an of itself.

Update: I just posted a 4th free interview on the Pinball Magazine website. This time WoZ programmer Keith P. Johnson was kind enough to make some time available and talk about his current activities in Woz and Hobbit. Link: http://www.pinball-magazine.com/?p=1511. The interview is currently still a bit low on pics, but I didn't want to wait any longer with publishing it. Enjoy!

Fantastic interview with Keith! Thank you and thank you Keith!

I can't believe that the games code may be nearly complete come the next update which sounds like will be at the Expo! That's awesome news. There still sounds like there's a lot to put in. Battle The Wicked Witch, two more munchkin modes, another crystal ball mode, I think Castle Multiball, maybe changes to Haunted modes, diamond and emerald collect animations / notifications and of course the games main wizard mode Somewhere Over The Rainbow. If all of that gets into the next update it will be by far the largest update yet for the game. Can't wait

Any idea when you will have copies of the first one? I have held off on ordering because I want a copy of each issue.
