Quoted from ThePinballCo-op:

The experience of playing GnR is AMAZING! It's like no other pin.
The gameplay and rules and scoring and flipper feel and playfield concerns turned me off.
If I play the game without caring about any of that stuff, I always have a great time with it.

TRUTH! Worst scoring ever...which kills the game for me. I still own mine...best looking game in my collection.

Quoted from Rarehero:

All the GnR owners want Halloween instead.

False Despite not loving GNRLE, it's way better than Ultraman (the game I traded for it).

Quoted from RTS:

The problem is how incredibly low scoring the entire game is for all the effort put in to build the uncollected jackpot.
It's all or nothing. Play effort is not commensurate with score.
Not every game is so unbalanced to rely on a single shot at the end of a long session to receive the score you "earned."

Yep. I'm selling mine because: (a) the arcane/unbalanced scoring is the worst of any game I've ever owned. (b) many modes are just boring with almost no shot choreography (i.e. sounds or callouts that make the shot pleasing).

Otherwise, it's a gorgeous game. So much more beautiful than Stern's Rush, but not nearly as fun to shoot!

I really hope Toy Story is able to deliver on ALL fronts. Gorgeous, well appointed games that AREN'T fun to play don't last long in my collection...
