Ok.. so im never going to buy one, but....(LOL)..... hidden pops? why?
What's the point in having hidden pop bumpers, I just don't get it. You may as well had a gate divider under the plastic as the result is the same.
Now a couple of pops just RHS of COLLECT KID and 4 upper PF would have made a whole lot more sense to me.. miss the ramp, get in the pops.
Why is there a ball stuck up the top?... That aint no captive ball

Wow - what a price tag for a basic machine.

Looks pretty good but like the rest of the JJP titles the theme it’s doesnt grab me straight away. I do like Dialed in as a game though. Hopefully this is as good.

My mate has already ordered one - since he got into pinball, he has gone on about "Why has no-one made a Willy Wonka machine?" I always countered with "Why would they?" given I don't get the attraction. But I must say his excitement is rubbing off on me now there is one!

Playfield looks very similar to a Stern.
