This has always been my biggest concern with JJ Pins. They all look amazing, they are built like tanks, but how fun are they to shoot? I agree lights, color, all of that looks incredible...but I hope its fun to shoot.

Sorry double post but yes the reveal was fantastic. Very well done!

Is there anyone who bought this pin and loves it but also bought Hobbit and was very disappointed in it? I think all JJP pins are beautiful, built like tanks, and the emersion with the theme is always top notch...but I've struggled finding a JJP that i really LOVED shooting...that I thought was a blast to play and had staying power. I would love to play and buy GNR because I did love the band growing up, and it does look beautiful...but is it fun to shoot? is it clunky? I thought Hobbit's biggest downfall was the over reliance on multiballs and the lack of shots (unless you are content with drop targets and MM pop up trolls without any fun ramps or long satisfying shots on the playfield)

THERE IS NOTHING TO SHOOT FOR. Game sucks. I bought it NIB, and I'm entitled to my opinion. Thanks.

Wrong Sarah, I bought Smaug NIB and owned WOZLE for about 4 years. I've also played every game they have put out. Granted I didn't get enough games in on Pirates and Wonka on location to make a fair assessment, but first impressions weren't overly great. And I don't buy pros Sarah, I have all Premiums and LEs in my collection so have no idea what you're referring to when you say I rate ACDC pro above those titles...I think you're confused here...

So anyone that's had an LE for a while....is it fun to shoot? Yeah, i know its gorgeous, great lights, built like a tank, but is it really fun? satisfying shots?

What is the closest pin you could compare it to?

Thank you for this review, its starting to give me hope. I really have been disappointed with most JJPs I've played and owned, but starting to think this might be the first one I'd really love. Trying hard to find one to play and then make a decision to buy.

I agree. And I'm hoping when I play this pin I love it enough to add to my collection! Just don't trust any JJP pin to buy NIB without playing after my Hobbit experience.
