Sorry for resurection, but i feel thread is still viable.
I have now played all jjp games except gf. I've played them all atleast for a couple of hrs.
It's all a matter of opinion ofc, but here's where i'm at......
1. Wonka. Love at first play for me. Shots are great layout is varied. Ambience of goofy candyland is there for me.
2. Hobbit. Will last forever in a home collection. The rules and progression is second to only stern jp.
The athmostphere, call out, theme handling etc is second to none. Has the best and most inspiring wizard modes in all pinball. If shot layout and symethry would have been better, it would have been best ever.
3. Guns and roses. What a beautiful machine. Assets and feeling is there. The game screams rock konsert.
Downside is that the middle part of the playfield is cluttered. It feels a bit confined and as if im playing a shorter version of a pinball machine.
3. Pirates. I need more time on this. It's a maxed out machine. Lots to do and explore. It's lovely
I dont really feel it. The shots arent awesome, except the cannon . I dont get the pinball moments, as i do with for ex. Hobbit and gnr.
3. Woz. Such a beauty. Such a theme. Such an imaginative and full playfield. You cant be unaffected.
The downside is that you mostly end up doing the same shoots over and over.
Still would love to have in a +5 game collection.
* notice i cant really say wich is best of gnr, pirates or woz, they'll have to share spot 3.
6. Dialed in. Really nice with all toys and eyecandy, somewhat ruined by art and the uggly electric boy and scissor girl.
What really brings this down is rules and theme inconsistencies. Why am i shooting a spark plug? A spider?
The only point of the game is electrify phone, start disasters and collect simcard. Repeat, repeat, repeat.
7. Toy story. I' ve only had ten games or so on this machine, but the feeling is like when you read a chapter of a book and then drops it. It's not worth the time.
Looks beautiful. Is this the best illuminated jjp pin? This is kind of where it ends. The shots are easy and repetetive. The playfield is barren. Toys are static and lifeless. It's a shame and should have been so much more.
