read this line from a JJP person's quote
"This weekend is the big Wizard of Oz Festival in Chesterton, Indiana where JJP has a booth and will be joined by over 40,000 WOZ lovers as well as JJP customers and distributors and even Matt will make an appearance. Booth #1201. If you are local, stop by and say hello. Visit www.ozfestivalchesterton.com."40,000 people going to a Wizard of Oz meeting/fair etc. The theme in the USA makes BIG business sense. JJP are very smart people. How many people out of the 40,000 people put their hand up and paid a small deposit at this fair. 1 in 40 means a thousand sales. Theres the 1000 sold there so to speak. (even if he only sold a few dozen at the fair with extra pre-orders, it would have been a big marketing success).
Waiting to own this title is like waiting to open Xmas presents. I like the legs, and even gold legs on this title would look amazing. Even a hybrid of emerald green n gold legs would be great (co-incidentally green n gold is Aussie colours as well !) Bring on WOZ.
p.s - the Roger Sharpe comment about 55 yr old women who shop at Kmart being the target market for WOZ was a great comment, because of a few things -
1. the wife is out of the house - GOOD
2. the wife is spending money at a shop known for low price tags which will save u money - GOOD
3. you can play pinball in peace by ya self, while the old girl is shopping,whilst u are with the new 20 yr old girlfriend, who will listen intensely about this new topic called Wizard of Oz - EVEN BETTER
Kmart does come in handy after all.
