I see you couldn't resist your transparent Stern-bashing even in a blog post that was supposed to be about WOZ. It's great that JJP can address the small niche of high-end collectors willing to pay $6500 for a game without playing it. Meanwhile Stern will keep rolling out the smash hits: LOTR, Tron, SM, IM, AC/DC, X-Men...

I own 2 Sterns, and plan to buy more. However I agree that the B/W flipper design (with a separate "hold" winding) is much better. The Stern coils get hot and sometimes buzz. It doesn't make that much of a difference to gameplay, but all things being equal I wish Stern would license the patents so they could switch to the B/W design.

Back to WOZ...I'm not a fan of the theme or the playfield layout. I may be more positive on it once I see how it plays, but it looks very stop-and-go to me. Artwork and toys are great though.
