I am interested in a WoZ. I've played a few examples and am concerned at the longevity of the game, parts availability, etc. I am looking to pick up a used around $6k and am wondering if there are known issues. I saw someone commenting on their post that some of the boards were placed with "5v" versions. What is the deal with this and should I be concerned?

Also, one of my main gripes with the games I've played is the flipper feel. They have always felt weaker than they should be and somewhat spongy, not crisp and strong. Surely coils can be changed, mechanisms modified, but I am wondering if this is the case with anyone else's perception or a known issue and if there are any modifications to be had.

My wife is getting on board with some newer or more expensive pins and this is one of our tops, ToM is another but she doesn't know I already bought one for her bday

So, spending a good amount of cash on a game I'd want to make sure it will be maintainable and something we'll enjoy playing.

Thanks!

5 volt or 7.5 volt boards are available from the store at jerseyjackpinball.com

Some games may never lose a board, some may lose a few. Some have chewed up boards. Ask about previous LED boards replaced. A kit is available or coming to convert to the new 2.0 system.

Flippers can be made stronger in coil settings. All the coils can be made weaker or stronger.

Majority of the parts are common Williams parts. So you have a great supply out there in cheap replacements should you ever need them for flippers, pop bumpers, slingshots, etc.

It’ll be a challenge to find one for 6k.
