2 Games
2.1 Wizard of Oz
The first production games of Wizard of Oz (or, WOZ) shipped in April 2013. It is a widebody pinball machine with a 26" HD LCD screen in place of a traditional backglass and DMD. The playfield is lit by RGB LEDs.
2.1.1 Standard Edition
2.1.2 Emerald City Limited Edition
2.1.3 75th Anniversary Limited Edition
This edition was also previously referred to as the "Red Ruby" Edition.
2.1.4 Green Edition
Less than 100 machines were planned for production, as stated on the pinballs.com distributor website. It differs from the original Emerald City LE machine in that the cabinet is not direct print (which allows you to change decals, if desired) and it does not have the wooden apron. The apron on this machine is metal and features the four characters on their way to Oz. These machines include a factory-installed shaker motor and Invisiglass. A custom topper is being designed for the Green Edition.
2.1.5 Other Unique/Special/Limited Editions
2.1.5.1 Rescue Edition
The Rescue Edition was a limited run of 22 machines that were donated by JJP, and the proceeds went to reimburse customers who pre-ordered from the Australian distributor, Bumper Amusements, which folded in mid-2014 before orders were fulfilled.
