What kind of alternative are you thinking about? I just recently purchased one to completely rebuild and have been slowly rounding up parts...mine came without any boards, so that has been my first mission. I have a newer aftermarket power supply, and the original PPB board, so far. Working on getting a sound board, aftermarket scoreboard, and either original mpu if I can find one at a decent price, or suck it up and buy an aftermarket mpu, as well. I'm also in the market for a full set of legs.

My DE Playboy came with no boards, and I am finally done buying boards, but I was hoping that I could get some closeup pics of someone else's game so I have a better idea of where all of the connectors go on the boards? It would be a great help, and I appreciate it if it can be done. Thank you.

Give me a better idea of which plastics you are looking for and I have extras I will let you know....I did purchase the CPR bling version so I'm in no need of the current set that I have for the machine. I would be happy to help out a fellow pinhead!!

Starting to slowly get my machine piece mealed back together. Looking for a little assistance with the speaker connections. Mine have been cut. Can I get a picture of the ends where the speakers hook up to, that would be helpful. Here is what mine looks like:

Sounds great...i can use as many pics as I can get. Also, under playfield pics of wires going to thumper bumpers, flippers. My machine was raided to complete another machine, so now I'm getting all the missing pieces back to revive it. Can't wait for it to be finished. Definitely doing LED's, too. They make a pin look new and play is more fun. Thank you for your replies and help.

Those are great pics... Thank you. I now know I need a 7 lead molex... How are the reds and blacks in it... Is it right red,left red, then right black, left black?

Oh sorry, I see they have stripes through the corresponding wire, my bad. Ill be in touch with more q&a soon once I get more into it. Going to swap out a better playfield I found first and clear coat it before I delve any further. Anybody in need of a playfield, I'll have one that's not too bad... Touch up in game room section and couple spots on the water and gold by stand up targets. I might even do the touch ups first before I sell it off. Thanks again

Curious, why is there a black speaker housing and a gold one? Were there different options for this machine? Mine came with a black one but i purchased a gold one and have to make some modifications to make it work properly.

Just wanted to shoot out a FYI to anyone in this club interested in used plastics for this machine, i have some that I'm willing to part with to any of you first before i go and list them on eBay or Pinside market place. Let me know what you need with a picture to my inbox and I'll let you know what i have...i upgraded to a new set and I have no use for the originals.

Getting into the reconstruction of this monster some more. I've included pics of where I could use some help. Don't know how the back of the slide, where mansion is on top, is mounted on back of playfield. Next, what does that switch do that's mounted on back of mansion? Where does other switch go that is attached to that small harness? What is the purpose of the two screws in the side of the slide? I need a pic of the switch mounted underneath the playfield of left outlane switch. And, how is the other slide connected in back, as well?... Last question, what pieces go behind 3-stand up target? Lots of questions, but I'm stumped on these sections. I've included pics for all my questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I got this machine stripped and it's got alot of little spots i can't find pics to help me on the internet... I'm almost there though!!

I figured out the switches on the mansion.... Just need help with the rest.

Hello all....any chance I could get a couple up close pics of the slingshot set up under the playfield....I need to see the wiring going from both switches to make sure I'm not missing something. Thank you for any help.

DE PB35 owners out there.... Two questions.
1) If you stop the ball or take it off the field of play for like thirty seconds without it hitting anything, do your VUK and Champagne kickers activate? Mine does and I'm guessing its either not supposed to do that or it does it in case the ball gets stuck so the machine knows to activate them to get the ball moving again?

2) What is the purpose of these two screws on the right slide?? See pic.

Thank you for that clarification. And answering my questions. I feel better now knowing its a part of the game.

Sound Board help --- Can someone please verify that capacitors go into C6 and C7, and what size they are? I think they are 4.7uf at 100 volts, but I want to make sure before I solder some in there. Thank you.

Thank you

Happy New Years!! Could someone please verify diode size on right/left flipper switches? Are they 1N5404?

Also, diode size on pop bumper switches?

Thank you.

Just want to give props to Cliffy for now making enhanced lane guides for Playboy 35th!!

Looks like its in nice condition....

Mine was a complete basket case....i spent a year and a half getting it to be whole working machine.

No boards, missing some of the playfield equipment, no back picture, cut wiring, missing almost all of the solenoids....a mess. But i got it super cheap and just took my time with it....

Before and after pics....

You should get rid of that old junk in the bottom corner ....and replace it with this upgrade.....much more reliable

I have a bunch of extra parts for this machine if you are in need of anything. I brought mine back from the dead a couple years ago.

Hello all. Reaching out to the group to see if anyone has good hi res scans of the playfield?

I’m in the process of cleaning up one that I just removed the factory mylar off of. I need to touch up some areas and get it ready for clear coating. Thank you in advance.

It looks good. I’m partial to the original back screen but that’s just me. It’s a fun machine to modify and I love the light show it presents. Have fun!

How did you update the code/get it from?

There’s a auction on eBay right now for a full decal set for like 10.00 plus shipping and it has no bids...... just a thought

Anyone out there got this plastic kicking around as an extra?

The blue one with two post nuts?

Thank you for posting this, but unfortunately I only need that one piece. The rest of my game is complete. They do look like they are in great shape, though.

Just thought I’d post this here in case you didn’t know about it. It looks like a great addition to the game!!
