But WoZ wad annoinced 14 months ago. I am tired of non buyers comtinual ' The theme sucks'  posts

Yup. I'm aware of that.

I've been planning on buying a NIB title for 3 years. I was close with Ironman. Transformers and Avatar is not my thing, and I'm not a fan of AC/DC or Rolling Stones. So the theme IS relevant and IS the deciding factor as to what I will buy. I don't care if it is a Stern, JPP or whatever.

I will be a committed buyer when the theme is relevant to my tastes. It's a personal thing. I'm sure all the WOZ fans will LOVE this machine, and I'm happy for them. I'll also be aware of the fact that when a manufacturer releases a title with a theme that will attract my hard earned $$, that there will be people that don't like it.

Let's say Stern's next title is "KISS"" - I know pinheads will not like this at all, but I know many wealthy fans will buy the game - sight unseen. I'd buy it - no hesitation. If JPP released a "Dream Theater" Pin - No hesitation - I'd buy it. If either manufacturer developed an "Escape from New York" (my favorite movie of all time) - No hesitation.

Without hijacking the thread too much, my point is that theme is the most important buying decision for me. It's a personal thing. I just wanted to make that clear. I VERY MUCH look forward to playing WOZ.
