Hi All,
I need to get leg plates for my Data East Star Wars machine, in which someone cross-threaded the leg bolts. After looking at Marco, I found this: http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/535-7394-00
However, I think my machine has these: http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/01-9296
Can anyone verify this? My machine is stored at a buddy's place at the moment so I can't get to it to check and I want to get these leg plates ordered.

Thanks!

Derek

I sold mine but I would call Marco to see. They have the best customer service. But I would go the first link.

Hey Derek...

I just changed out a plate on my Creature. It had the small little plate like the second one you posted...I replaced it with the bigger one. No issues.

Personally I was surprised they used such a small plate in the first place. The one I got from Marco was actually more heavy duty than the standard larger plates I have seen. Seems like they have more thread area for the threads on the bolt to bite.

Thanks for all the replies. I wound up going with the small plate because that's what my machine had IIRC but I can picture how either one would work. I will keep that in mind!

Thanks again,
Derek

The larger leg plate (http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/535-7394-00)
is an upgrade from the original smaller leg plate (http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/01-9296)

The larger one will hold up better. Use the smaller one if you really want originality or dont want to change them all to match.
I would at least replace a pair of them with the larger plates, or all 4 if thats your thing.
