I went into town this afternoon to try out the sited WOZ LE and first impression looking at it was wow - looks smart, but within a minute of playing it, the inserts are just so dam bright and the GI is almost non existent so in a dull lit area I personally was not wowed by the machine. Funny thing was I put in $2 for one game and there was still 2 credits up from someone else - whether that be from people not knowing there was a credit or people expecting to play a few games but walked away ?????

The quality looked amazing and the cabinet finish is incredible - felt like a matt finish cleared playfield - just beautiful but the playfield just goes into random funky / hippie colour patterns of lights that it just is a bit over the top. I did enjoy one mod which was "lights off" mode which everything went off apart from a few targets flashing to be hit = was calming to the eyes.....

Overall was much more attracted to the new Star Trek Pro next to it.... but if only JJP could improve the GI and keep the colour of the inserts for a mode and not go crazy then it would not be so contrast as the playfield is almost black and then a hundred inserts blinking at you OR have the lights on and the games lighting would not be as much of an issue.

Also I don't think the LE comes with mirror blades but this one had them which actually looked like Bally / WMS ones with a slightly modified elongated hinge hole.
