IMO, this should have been done the proper way. What was expected, was added value for the "limited" rehash of the game. Some simple (not too costly) additions would have went a long way.

They could have :
Added led eye lights in the trees (tree mod)
Added the flying monkey mod (not removed mech entirely)
Dressed up Dorthy's spinning house
Sparkling matching yellow gold armor (not the bright yellow)
A powder coated coin door

Total = $500 give or take.

A true limited 200 run on the YBR model (not "we might do it again")

This model is $2000 more than a RR, so make these truly special. One can't help but be insulted watching how this transpired.

I own a WOZ RR and am a big JJP supporter/fan, and want to see them do well, so don't get me wrong here. I also run a company, so I know you can't expect the customer to pay more for less! This is what everyone is annoyed about.

I do have a question though :

Has anyone ever had a problem with the monkey mech?

It hasn't ever given me an issue and out of the 4 owners that I know, none of them either.

I know this is senseless at this point, but I do wonder.
