Speaking with Wade Krause, he will make new playfields for Slick Chick if there are at least 20 playfield requests.

Wade has reproduced many Gottlieb EM playfields, some include Kings & Queens, Atlantis, El Dorado, Gold Strike, Sing Along etc. The quality of the playfields he produces is second to none, absolutely outstanding work.

If you would like a new Slick Chick playfield, please indicate your interest here.

#3 7 years ago

That makes 3 playfields spoken for. 17 to go.

SteveinTexas did you say you wanted one, then vote no? Or did someone else vote without posting?

Quoted from boilerman:

i tried to get this reproduce a while back. the best i could come up with at the time is 9 people.
good luck this time, i currently don't have a chicky so i really don't need one.

Oh ok, hopefully those 9 will step up again and a few more. For such a great and sought after game I thouught this one would have been a no brainer.

Apologies for the delay in updating this thread. Thanks to Quercus22 Quercus22 , bigdaddy2000 and doghouse for expressing their interest.

That brings the total to 12 playfields, assuming everyone on the list is still keen. We need 8 more to make this happen. Essentially once there are 20 confirmed orders, I'll speak with Wade and ask if he can add Slick Chick to his list for future reproduction.

UPDATE - Thanks to EJS, gameroomfan & EasternBloc for expressing their interest.

That brings the total to 15 playfields, assuming everyone on the list is still keen. We need 5 more to make this happen. As the numbers get closer to 20, I will contact those that expressed interest early to see if they are still willing to commit.

Essentially, once there are 20 confirmed orders, I'll speak with Wade again and ask if he can add Slick Chick to his list for future reproduction.

PM's have just been sent to all of the following people that have expressed interest in a reproduction Gottlieb Slick Chick playfield. For anyone else wanting a playfield, it's not too late to be added to the list. Wade requires a minimum of 20 playfields, to date there is enough interest for 18 playfields. Hopefully at least another 2 people want to order a playfield for their game.

Quoted from pinhead52:

Im there. Stu we could do a prebuy of 25...

pinhead52 Hi Ken, please drop me a line if you have an idea in mind.

#41 1 year ago

All contact information received has been passed onto Wade. He's very pleased that so many people are interested in a playfield for this game, and he's really keen to start as it's one of his favorite games.

Sounds like once he completes the Surfer/Surf Champ playfields, this one will be next, if everyone that's expressed interest follows up with a deposit. Hopefully before the end of the year, we'll all have nice new Slick Chick playfields.

Still waiting to hear from the following people gameroomfan , bigdaddy2000 , KingofKoopas and timarnold

#43 1 year ago
Quoted from Blutarsky:

Just for fun: Wade mentioned to me that he owns a Slick Chick. Loves the game except for the post that some previous vandal had installed between the flippers. Haven't seen the amount of the required deposit. Can you advise, please?

Makes it so much easier that Wade doesn't have to source a playfield to copy. I don't believe that Wade has a set amount for a deposit, I do know some have sent $200 or $250, whilst others have paid in full.

#44 1 year ago

Thanks bigdaddy2000 for responding via PM. There are now 16 confirmed, including two people that contacted Wade directly following his latest email to established playfield buyers.

Hopefully the following people will add to that list, based on their earlier expression of interest in this thread gameroomfan , KingofKoopas and timarnold .

#45 1 year ago

A brief update from Wade. timarnold has confirmed interest. That brings the total to 17 confirmed playfield purchases. We are closing in on the 20 required.

Quoted from Scottopus:

Just picked up a SC with a clearcoat that has yellowed and dulled all the colors. PM'd Pinballer73 required information to add me to the list. Am interested in replacement plastic sets which appear to be currently sold out.
[quoted image]

Thanks Scottopus . Will add your name to the list and ask Wade for an update once I receive your email address via PM.

Anyone else interested in reproduction SC playfield?

#55 11 months ago

Updated the list. We now at 19 playfields thanks to interest from cperro and Scottopus . Just 1 more needed to make the total of 20 that Wade requires.

Quoted from Nikrox2:

Amazing you’ve been after this for 6 years! Talk about perseverance !
Had one of these a coupe years back. Beautiful game.

Yes, it's been a while that's for sure. Hopefully not too much longer until Wade can schedule this into his reproduction que. I'm hopeful as he says it is one of his favorite games.

#59 11 months ago
Quoted from NicoVolta:

Sorry… crazy busy here. Can’t recall if I made contact with Wade about this, but I’d be #20.

Ok. Please forward me your name and email address via PM and I will run it by Wade.

I would for sure take one if it's not too long. I acquired a game 6 weeks ago and will restore it this fall/winter. Thanks

Thanks for your interest, I will add you to the list and send you a PM shortly.

Quoted from Scottopus:

Pinballer73 - Have you heard anything from Wade?

I emailed him earlier today with the updated list. I will report back once he has replied.

Apologies for not updating the thread sooner. As some of you will already know, unfortunately Wade has had some family issues of late. That coupled with working through the various supply & product issues he's had with materials has set the playfield reproduction process back. Hopefully in the near future he will again be able to focus on playfield reproduction as his work is 2nd to none. He's keen to do Slick Chick as it's one of his favorite games.

Quoted from Knxwledge:

Add me to the list

Will do, thanks for your interest.

Hopefully Wade will get ontop of the issues currently preventing him from making playfields. Quality materials are one thing and Wade is working his way through solutions to those. Family comes 1st, please give Wade time, I'm sure he'll come back to these passion projects given some time.

#70 73 days ago
Quoted from Knxwledge:

This thread was started 7 years ago, I dont think waiting a little more will be a problem. Wishing well for him and his family. Would he ever consider doing another run of a game he's done in the past?

I'm sure he will at some stage, as he's done before with a few titles. Currently he's working his way through Strange World & Surf Champ.

To the best of my knowledge nothing has change and Wade is still working through rectifying his process amongst other activities that pay the bills. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.
