The "fat" ones can be revived but it's not guaranteed to work and is a bit of a faff. You'd can reflow the solder under one of the chips (can't remember now if it's the CPU or GPU) using a heat gun and some tin foil but this only works if it's the cause of the problem (obviously). It's also worth baring in mind that once they've failed they will generally fail again soon after.
If the Game warranty seems reasonable I can't see any real reason not to get a refurbed slim if it saves a bit of cash.
WYNIRO got through PS3s like popadoms but my slim one has been going for a while without much issue (cable died though).
I'd have liked a fat one for the backward compatibility but they weren't making them any more when I was in the market.
and WYNIRO ?
Sony seem to think it isn't:-

Are you sure it was a manufacturers warranty sticker?
Now you just need to pick up Motorstorm, Motorstorm Pacific Rift, and Motorstorm Apocalypse.
Kids shoes don't buy themselves you know!
Motorstorm is just a racing game, so fine I would say.
I play LEGO games (currently Marvel Superheroes) with my 9 year old and she loves them
My kids just like smashing bikes into things and watching the riders ragdoll everywhere. Obviously they're deeply disturbed and have no concept that it isn't real....
also +1 for the Lego games* (although the Hobbit's not great for that age IMHO).
*obviously after you've bought mine </cough>
