Is it me or is this thread getting a little on the hot side? If I have to stop this car......

My three cents: I am a WOZ owner. My daughter absolutely loves the game and makes trips to see dear old dad so that she can get her WOZ fix. Her previous favourite game was Theatre of Magic and WOZ has totally taken over. Me, you ask? I keep trying to like it. Part of the problem was that it took from mid November to early March to finally get the game to work properly. Three monkey magnet switches, a monkey magnet, a monkey solenoid, a lock board and LED board later, it was finally working by early this month. That was a lot of return postage. For a NIB game, this is frustrating and has clearly coloured my view. I kept asking myself why did I buy this machine every time had had to lift the playfield to work on it. I suspect that I need to put more mileage on the odometer before I decide yea or nay.

I have a WOZLE and an IJ: I would keep the IJ over the WOZ. That said, have you had a chance to play the WOZ? Does it it grab you? Despite the film motif for both pins, they are very, very different in their play. IJ has a straight forward ruleset of modes and shots. WOZ, not so much. Try to play a WOZ as much as you can prior to making this decision.

Yes, NIB. I ordered it in August 2011 and got delivery in September 2015. It sat in my garage until Thanksgiving. I have a NIB LOTR LE that has not given me any problems at all. No waiting for the LOTR: I just ordered it and had it shipped.
