If you haven't read my review, check it out. I fixed mine up with LEDs, so all the illumination is bright and blinding at times. This adds to the fun and difficulty of this great game. I am very happy with it. I replaced many parts and plastics which I picked up online at Bay Area Amusements. I would say the ramp is the rare piece to find and replace. If you want a challenge, give it a try. The theme sounds to be right up your ally.
