I have been helping people in the two pinball parts needed groups on Facebook for about six months now. I have seen several people looking for the helmet, visor and corkscrew ramp. I'd make all three parts and any ramps that you think are needed.

Quoted from Freeplay40:Skeeball ramp???????
He's asking about the million point ramp, the one with the three circles.

Quoted from Malenko:That Kydex looks tits! I'm down for that and a translucent orange corkscrew ramp. If only you repro'ed plastics, then I'd stop having broken Arnie plastics in my T2.
If you use this method the plastics won’t break in the same spot again. https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/repairing-cracked-and-broken-plastics
Quoted from Butch2099:Any chance of Demolition Man ramps?
Butch2099 You are the sixth person asking for ramps for Demolition Man in this thread. Have you also asked Larry at Starship-Fanstasy?
Quoted from Butch2099:I didn't see them listed on his site. I'll send him a message if you think that he has them.
I think Larry does the same thing as Freeplay40 in that he takes feedback on titles taht people would like to see produced. I know that he works with freeplay40 to make sure there is no duplication of effort.
Quoted from Butch2099:Just got an answer from Larry from Starship fantasy. He says he has no plans on making them. I mentioned there were several people looking for them and I would buy two sets.
Freeplay40 Williams made 7,109 of this popular WPC title. Larry has stated that he won’t make this ramp. You already have seven ramp sets presold. This seems like a great next project for you

I've found forums for buy, sell and trade playfields, and one for backglasses/translites, but not for ramps. I created a new forum for ramps:

Quoted from dzorbas:I think I've read all the comments in this thread that include "Space Shuttle" but want to confirm that at present you can not make ramps for it because you don't have all the necessary equipment. There are obvious a few of us that would be interested in replacements. You can add me to the list, I just don't want to pester you about it.
Thanks for your efforts. I'm sure everyone here owes you a debt of gratitude!
dzorbas I think Starship Fantasy makes Space Shuttle ramps. Mark works with Starship Fantasy to make sure that they aren’t both working on the same ramps. The site says out of stock. Email them and ask when they’ll be back in stock.

I confirmed with the seller that he is making the ramp cover and slingshots but not the ramp itself. The ramp cover will be acrylic and the slingshots will be petg.

Quoted from Malenko:U turn ramp COVER thingie, my bad I missed a word. The plastic that covers the U turn takes a beating from balls going airborne from the "Super Charger" My plastic is dented in so bad its actually curved in. Im amazed its not cracked through. I can take a picture if you'd like. Was just an idea, I know you cant do TMNT ramps cause they are too big so I was thinking of small pieces that would be great to have.
@freeplay40 Mark there are 989 Getaway owners, and they have a club for owners. If you are considering making this ramp cover you may want to post in their club to gauge interest.

Jody Gontero posted on Facebook that he is making Hollywood Heat ramps and they will be ready to ship in a couple of days.
OP: The Hollywood Heat ramp factory is in production this weekend. Made up a purple tinted experiment, and will try teal as well as pink this week!
Me: If you aren't on Facebook pm me and I'll ask the seller for his email address.
All of these Pinsiders expressed interest in a Hollywood Heat ramp.

Quoted from MustangPaul:Mark said that others making ramps is OK with him he just wants to have them start their own topic and not use his to promote their products.
Isn't that Mark's call to speak up if he's offended. Mark and I have talked privately and he's ok with my intent. I've helped 100+ people on Pinside and Facebook look for hard to find parts, and I've posted 2,100 project pins to the project pins forum. All I was trying to do was help people fix their games. These type of rants on Pinside are what keep people from joining our site. I've met a lot of people at shows and on other forums and when I ask why they aren't already on Pinside, they say that they won't join because of this type of drama. Yes, it's true I could have pm'd Mark and the interested buyers, but everyone complaining in this forum is also guilty of hijacking Mark's forum by not using pms to address the issue privately. If you'd like to discuss further with me please pm me as I won't address this issue further in this forum.

Quoted from Freeplay40:He just contacted me!
Is he still offering an obscene amount of money?

Quoted from Freeplay40:just wish I could come to a reasonable arrangement with Planetary to make the decals available.
Mark are you trying to get a license to make the labels? Maybe if you share how many total of each ramp you plant to make they can make an equivalent amount of labels that customers could buy directly from pps.

Quoted from yellowghost:I dont understand too much about PPS or what they own, but it the person who owned the stuff sold it before PPS bought all the bally stuff, then its not theirs anyway.
I agree and anyone can make a reproduction ramp, but you can’t use licensed artwork without permission. An example is the ramp decals.

Quoted from Freeplay40:Don't think I've ever seen another request for that so doubtful anytime soon.
I’ve seen a lot of ads here on Pinside and Facebook looking for these over the last three years. I don’t think anyone has ever remade these so there is demand for them.

Quoted from MaxAsh:No worries, thank you for the reply! I believe about half the ramps can be purchased currently, but a couple others cannot last I checked. Just curious if it was on your radar. Maybe some other people could chime in if they have interest as well.
Have you posted in the Starship Ramp forum?

Quoted from Alan_L:I thought I saw this guy's name somewhere but I can't find it.
I'm looking for someone who makes habitrails to replace unobtanium ramps ( DE Time Machine).
Are you thinking of Mantis Amusements?
http://mantisamusements.com/
I thought someone created a forum on building your own habitrails.

Quoted from wamonkey:Question - I looked through the topic but didn’t see it…anyone ever made a Data East Secret service ramp?
Someone has one in the Pinfest Buy Sell Trade forum for $50.
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/pinfest-2023-buy-sell-trade-want-no-hotel-talk?tq=secret+service&tu=
Freeplay40 It's made of that really thin black ABS, so the ball always hops above the ramp and breaks the small building made of the same material. It's all one piece. Unbroken ramps for this pin are really hard to find.

Quoted from GunFighter:Judge Dredd new plastic set. Been looking for a new set for sometime now. Does anyone here know of someone or some company that is going to make them or has them in stock? I know Pinball Central makes them, but they do not ship to the USA.
You can email the B/W license holder Planetary Pinball and ask when they’ll be babk in stock.
