Quoted from vid1900:

2. The movie Wizard of Oz is a beacon and beloved symbol for the Gay community. This makes many 50 year old males uncomfortable. If you ever are sitting in a bar and a well dressed man asks you if you "are a friend of Dorthy?", he believes you are gay (Just say yes; make new friends).

Really - OMG I never knew that! For real? Geezzz - I guess I live under a rock. Oh well - I guess I own a gay game

Quoted from markmon:

The Pinballbulbs kit solves the lighting utterly. As taken in the darkest room possible before and after:

I also have the pinballbulbs.com kit. It really makes a difference. I just swapped out all the purples for super bright whites... I'm not a big fan of heavy LED colors - I like to just bring out the colors already in the playfield.

I never played it so I can't testify to that.

You really should give it a chance and play it for a couple hours. The first time I saw WOZ I felt like it was over-packed but once you understand the rules and shots it really all comes together to make a great pin.

Quoted from fatality83:

You forgot the JJP leg humpers who praise every single thing that the company does. These people are constantly reminding everyone how JJP is so much better value then Stern, that the wait is just part of the journey and that everyone who doesn't like the game or JJP or their business is a troll, hater or zealot.

I don't know about "better value" but I would say better support + warranty. I have had limited success getting Stern to respond to my support requests for my STLE and they have a very short warranty. I was a little disappointed with Stern support. I'm not saying it's bad - but it could be a lot better.

JJP has excelect support. Sal + Frank + Ken + LTG all kick butt and are willing to spend however much time on the phone to help you through your issue.

Stern = 60 day warranty
JJP = 365+ day warranty
