Quoted from bob_e:Gottlieb playfield plastics Big Indian - Big Brave
That target over the drops is always broken. PBR sells the set.
I am sorry, I just sold my big brave after 10 years and I let the old plastics go with it.
I had the sling plastics intact....
I bought the repos because the one over the drops was broken and poorly repaired.
Good Morning and Merry Christmas to all.
I got this Jacks to Open paperwork inside a Chicago Coin Hollywood or Sound Stage a while back.
There are 2 schematics and some of the other original paperwork. It is probably not the complete package.
If you have the game and need the paperwork send me a PM and I will mail it out to you.
So I'm an idiot:raised playfield, forgot ball was in, broke a drop target on my Target Alpha.
I know PBR has new, but I think a new one would look very out of place, unless I buy 15 - ouch.
Here's my broken one, anyone got one (or even 2, so I have a spare) of similar condition?

I did the same thing on a Drop-A-Card once. I couldn't find a used one and ended up ordering one new. The color match wasn't that obvious but the letter placement was much higher on the new target.
You could always order only 5 new ones and place them on the lower drop target bank and then you will have 4 spares for the next time you do it.

Happy xmas to all of you! Hope you had some great time?!!
So, if there is any chance that someone would be able to have some "xmas" gift for me?
Looking for a Mariner plastic. It is on the right side of the playfield just above the sling shot. Would be really nice, if anyone would have a replacement available for me!
Thanks a lot in advance!

Quoted from pinhead52:Its your lucky day, i have "1", altho if Boilerman has 2...

I have ten used from Night Rider which I think is the same if you have an issue or anyone needs one.
Thanks, GD. They are slightly different (see center is dot not circle) but one is on its way thanks to Ph52! Happy New year, all.
Quoted from wayner:Looking to purchase an original spinning wheel with metal outer ring from a GTB World Fair EM. Thks.
I know you said original, but here is an option if you have or can make the metal ring and can't find an original.

Quoted from waltrr:I know you said original, but here is an option if you have or can make the metal ring and can't find an original.

Thks but I already have that option & the metal ring is not an easy component to fabricate.
Quoted from wayner:Thks but I already have that option & the metal ring is not an easy component to fabricate.
If you can find an original great, but the ring is very easy to make. Find someone in your area with a laser cutter. Cut from 16ga.or 18ga. #7 stainless and make sure they cut with nitrogen. Nitrogen will leave no burn marks. They can burn the rivet holes in for you too.
Once the program is made, you can always cut a handful, sell them for a few bucks each to make some of your money back.
After looking at yours, I wish I didn't sell my Worlds Fair now.

Thks good info. Yes machine is one of my favourite EMs. I really like the artwork & gameplay.
Looking for a couple of coin door parts for my ongoing 1968 Gottlieb Royal guard restore, but the parts from any late 1960's Gottlieb will work as long as they have the brass-like plating....
IMG_3205 (resized).JPG
I'm missing the bar that bolts across the back of all coin mech holders (photo is from my High hand, I need a brass-like plated one).
IMG_3207 (resized).JPG
Someone had a crowbar in the coin return hole & bent the crap out of this part. I could use mine, but would prefer a non-boogered one.

Lemme know if you are still in need. I have probably 10 of these.
Quoted from newmantjn:Lemme know if you are still in need. I have probably 10 of these.
Thanks for the offer - Ken already helped me out.
I posted this about a year ago but I still have a '73 Chicago Coin Riviera that I'm parting out. I do not have a back box and the cabinet is broken beyond repair. Bottom relay board is complete as is the coin door (minus 1 mech I think) and it's harness. Some parts have been sold off of the playfield already.
PM me if you need some Riviera parts.

Quoted from dasvis:'74 Bally Amigo - Need correct spinner, for some reason this looks wrong........
Isn't Amigo just standard Bally red diamond? Someone sells nice mylar stickers for those.
Quoted from dasvis:I hope so, but I don't know. The pics on IPDB are not very good.......

Looks like mine had an Aztec spinner on it. Never noticed it. I don't have the game anymore.
Quoted from DennisDodel:Looks like mine had an Aztec spinner on it. Never noticed it. I don't have the game anymore.
Yeah, every one I can find a photo of seems to have a different spinner. That thing must take a beating. I think I'm going to put the Bally red diamond decal on it and call it a day.

the flyer on IPDB is a little grainy but you can tell it isn't a diamond http://www.ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=71&picno=4009&zoom=1
I found this image what looks like Pin MAME or something and shows the spinner saying "Bally" and seems like what is on the flyer http://irpinball.org/screenshots/amigo.jpg
Quoted from CactusJack:Evil Kenival!
Wasn't that a song by Emerson, Lake and Palmer?
At least three of the Amigo games shown on this list have photos of a spinner with an image of a red chicken on one side and a blue chicken on the other side. This seems to be correct to me. Fits the theme.
For some reason I am not able to copy the photos.
The screen names of the posters with the chicken spinners are: diecirobi, em fan and johnny pins. em fan has the best photo of the spinner.

Looking again at the flyer pictured on the IPDB enlarged to 500%, it indeed looks like a red chicken on the spinner to me.
Quoted from jrpinball:Wasn't that a song by Emerson, Lake and Palmer?
First and second impression.
Edit- forgot the third.
Quoted from DennisDodel:Looks like mine had an Aztec spinner on it. Never noticed it. I don't have the game anymore.
When in doubt, ask Steve Young at PBR.
Funny, three different spinners on IPdB.
One Aztec
One Middle Earth
One Eight Ball
I certainly don't remember ever seeing a Chicken spinner. And I used to play the game as a kid. With all those substitute spinners, I guess I can't trust mine being the orignal Red diamond.
And sorry JR, I knew I was butchering EK's name while I was typing. Just too lazy to look it up.

Yeah, the chicken spinner might be tough to come up with. Will ask Steve, but he's a Gottieb guy.....

Here is the way it looked like originally. Back side is a similar thing im blue.

Thanks Axel. Would you please post this photo on the IPDB Amigo listing? Thanks.
Quoted from Pinballly:Here is mine on the Backside...

Wings folded in on the blue side. Maybe it looks like it is flapping its wings when spinning?
Quoted from dasvis:Any chance you could scan both sides? I could make a couple of decals & mylar over the top..
Once you get some good scans of the original Bally Amigo chicken images you should email them over to Pinball Rescue as they will make the decals for other folks. I did that for them with a Sonic Prospector. They won't have an issue with the Bally/Williams trademark as there is no brand name or trade mark on the spinner image.
