Quoted from Jackontherocks:

I am definitely more interested in their second pin that’s for sure (because of title yes but more importantly to see all the things they learned from the first game); however, I cannot even think about buying until game is finished to play to determine if I truly like it and if WOZ succeeds with the company. I think there second pin should go more smoothly and that they came across a lot of obstacles on their first one which they did not expect. I still think WOZ appears to look amazing with all the details and advanced technology but still appears to be too slow and I hope The Hobbit is faster and with more ramps which are my favorite part of pinball. I had a feeling they would get this title. Even TZ plays fast. I am also curious what new things Stern will do if any to their games once WOZ comes out. If all of JJP games are wide body and Sterns are normal width maybe nothing will change since there so different. In any event it is still good for any pinball fan to have more companies. Yes, I want Stern to do an orginal theme or JJP pinball as well but lets face it there is just more money in it for them by not doing one.

If there is any way you can play WOZ at a JJP distributor, you might want to do so. I do not feel that it is slow after playing it. It is not IM or JM by any means, but it is not slow. I have no skin in the game for TH either.

Movie is getting mixed reviews. Three hours for the first installment? It was one book.

Quoted from Shapeshifter:

The build of WOZ versus Avengers really makes me think. WOZ looks so solid, no nasty cheap bits. But I like the way modern Stern's play. Ideally I want WOZ type build and fast Stern gameplay.
So, right now I think Avengers is too much money relative to quality.
And I am not yet convinced gameplay of WOZ.
Like Hobbit but how can you get humor in this game?
For the amount of money NIB are right now, neither company quite ticking enough boxes for me......yet.

Good observation.
