I owned a JP in the past...didn't like the feel of it so sold it...was about to give up on Sega/Data East after that...decided to give them a try again...absolutely love my Baywatch & LAH...and as a result have several others on my wishlist...they make great games...some say they're clunky...rebuild the flippers, clean them up & get them working as they should...they don't feel clunky at all...they made some great games w/ original rule sets...go for it!
