Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:Flipper brackets are tough
The flippers were made by WICO as a replacement for stern at the time.
I believe Af-Tor uses the same flippers.
Data East would use WICO parts to do the first games, but started to redesign
the parts to fit their interest.
Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:Thank you, that answers some questions! I had been told the plastic ones were original by some and others said they’re incorrect.
So the integrated stop plastic brackets are just replacements from WICO at the time? They SHOULD work? I have spare metal ones from a parted out Seawitch just in case they don’t.
WICO would get subcontracts to supply parts to some pinball games.
Instance, WICO supplied the coin doors to Williams Pinbot.
WICO would get a contract to supply Stern with "Lollypop" targets
and pop bumper assemblies. Etc,etc,etc.
Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:The pandemic really screwed my original plans
Me too! I was trying to get a part made... All good...all good... COVID!
Job DEAD.
Now tying to pick up the pieces and start over.
