Love it, and my kids love it. My wife hates it, but that's just because it cost so much. She didn't vote in this poll.

I to would love to see the list of voters. If teekee and o-din are not amongst the no votes I would be shocked.

To answer the OP's original post, I am very happy with my MMR. I am not saying this because I spent so much money on it. I couldn't care less about that - in fact it's now worth 30% more in my currency so I could probably sell it tomorrow for a decent profit.
There are three areas of criticism I have, though none of these are that material to me:
1) it's hard to describe, but the bumpers and slingshots have a slightly plasticky feel to them. It just feels different to my 90s WPC games, but similar to mid 2000s Stern games. I'm not sure whether this is just because the components are brand new;
2) the white King inserts are a little hard to read; and
3) the voices seem a bit set back in the mix so it can be hard to hear all the quotes. I think I read this will be fixed with a software update.

These three things take maybe 2% off the game. Otherwise, it's a blast to play, and I wouldn't hesitate recommending it. The shots are smooth, the flippers responsive and strong, the lighting excellent.Whether it's a keeper, I don't know. I would like a TWD Prem and/or a WOZ one day and for a similar price WOZ certainly has a lot more going on, and TWD is a more intense experience.

One thing for sure is that it's a title that draws it's share of controversy. It's hard to fathom why certain people feel the need to bang on about its perceived bad points but I suppose it's a mixture of: personally not liking Rick; owning an original MM or AFM and annoyed at their drop in value; a genuine dislike of people actually enjoying their pinball/drinking the kool-aid/circle-jerking; they're bored, they like posting for the sake of it and enjoy trolling to get people riled up.
