I know the doors up top were converted to 1 door for reliability. This might have been a reliability issue, but I've never had a problem with the mech. They also changed the cabinet that WOZ was built in to their current cabinets they've had for Dialed In and Pirates. That might have played a factor into it. Because they moved the guts from the bottom of the cab to the backbox.

They are making RR Woz this year too.

Who from JJP has said that RR will be in the new cabinets? We don't know that yet.

Most importantly though, who cares? Buy a RR for $9,500. It's a better value than anything else in the 7-10k price range (as long as you like the game). Until all prices reach some insane amount, we should not care about a manufacturer having an alternate product that has a premium price tag. As long as there is perceived value in their main line products that most people buy, it's not a BFD.
