Played at two separate locations. Very disappointed. The number one gaff is the lighting, it's too dim and non existent at points. You drain the ball because the play field is so dark you cant see the ball. Bummer, The game looks and sounds cool but the lighting pulsing from full 255 brightness down to 0 makes your pupils dilate then overload with light.

The most beautiful pinball of all time, in my opinion. I’m unsure why they took out the flying monkeys(maybe it broke too often on the original games?), but this is really the only issue I have with the game other than the left drain save is absolutely impossible. Radcals on the cabinet are my favorite cabinet option, even better than butter cabinets. The #1 world under glass, 2 awesome upper playfields, great ruleset, great callouts, great lighting… yes - it’s that good & she’s purdy.

Very colorful and fun pin…great callouts and music from original movie. The two mini playfield integrate well into the game play. Love the drain lane options on both sides to possibly get the ball back in play. Lighting is a bit dark in spots, but the main playfield lighting is very active and colorful flowing well with gameplay. Totally disappointing that JJP cut costs on the YBR cutting out the flying monkey on a LE that has just 200 pins..bad call! It is a lost very cool feature. All in all great design in game play, theme, and colorful aesthetics…fun pin!

A looker, but not a player. After a few games, I walk away feeling like I could've done laundry or cleaned out the fridge.

Lots of action in this game. Different than most games. By far, it is my hardest game to conquer

I own Yellow Brick Road #10 and it's an incredibly beautiful machine. The "regular" edition machine looks bland by comparison.

I find the game play fun and addictive. The upper playfields are great and there is a good variety of shots on the main playfield. The criticism that there are only really two main shots (the ramp up the middle, and the castle VUK also up the middle) is somewhat valid, but there is enough else to do that I don't find it troublesome. I continue to learn new things about the coding every week as I play the game, and I have found it really enjoyable.

I have had a little trouble with the doors on the upper castle feature--they were sticking intermittently for the previous owner, and they continued to give me troubles after I transported the game to my house. I tried to mess with them from above, and eventually they started sticking and buzzing badly. That's when I realized I would have to remove that playfield completely from the game and refit the door mechs from underneath. I was able to get everything fixed and reinstalled properly, and it's been working well ever since. It should be noted that the opti-sensors that detect ball hits on the doors are very sensitive and must be perfectly adjusted, with everything tightened down with the correct torque. This only proves once again that learning to adjust and repair the mechanics on our games is critical for the home user. The only pinball technician within 100 miles of my WOZ game is....well.....me!

This game is a marvel. Pride of ownership is second to none. Everybody loves it. I sometimes just stand there in the semi-darkened room and look at it before I go to bed.

A fully loaded game. The shots are smooth and the lighting is amazing. The voice acting is really great. Even on super easy, this is a very challenging pin. Will be frustrating until you fully understand the rules. Even after you fully understand the rules, you will cry as the ball hits the left outline triggering the very difficult No Place Like Home ball save.
The Yellow is incredible in person. I have Wonka CE too and they complement each other very well. So far, I have Wonka as the superior pin, but I need more time with WOZ YBR before I can say for sure.

I recommend "Wizard Of Oz - Yellow Brick Road -“ 100%

All WOZ Pinball versions are amazing off course (Standard, Ruby Red and Emerald). But the YBR simply looks extremely beautiful with the upgrades that "Jersey Jack Pinball" added to this LE version.

The glossy decals are incredible, once that you see this elegant touch it is very hard to see your other games in the same room with simple and plain decals(you will see the difference right away). Also, the yellow sparkle it is a very nice touch, the wood apron looks very very nice, the detail of the art blades included it was a big surprise for me and those are a ‘Must Have!’ in this beautiful game, the new topper it is perfect for the theme along with the yellow ramps, and definitely two thumbs way up for the new art of the backglass.

JJP hit a Home Run with this magnificent LE, I rate 10/10 this "Yellow Brick Road", this Pinball it is worth it 100%, I have not just an exclusive...but also a exotic game at home.
