Does anyone know if the alt translights are still available? I just picked up a Genesis and not sure yet what I am doing with it. I don't usually care for Gottliebs of this era, but this one looks like it might be fun. I will be looking for another translight if I do end up keeping it.
Quoted from Jeelopy:My Genesis project has a very faded translite that washes out terribly when lit up. I decided to go with the actual theme for the playfield artwork...
I did not to the Wal-Mart $20 paper print but had a local professional print shop do this up on material that is designed to be backlit. Both pictures are in the same game with the same fluorescent tube. The red in Metropolis is more "red" to the naked eye than it looks in this picture. I had 2 printed if anyone is interested, DM if so. Cheers. Genesis #metropolis Tomass

I am looking for the one that says Genesis on it. I don't understand the Metropolis connection, but it looks nice. I see ome on ebay now for 95 + shipping. I may go that route if I keep this one.
Quoted from HHaase:I'm not aware of any reproductions being done for Genesis right now. Mine are in pretty good shape but there's a couple pieces that have small pieces chipped off. I'd love a new set.
Thanks. My newly acquired Genesis is in excellent shape with no playfield wear, but I have at least 3 cracked plastics. I may get repro ramps from freeplay40, mine are now repaired. I epoxied with plastic forms and then pulled them away once it was hard. Looks like a piece of scotch tape on there.

FWIW, I never cared for Gottliebs, but this game was pretty fun and opened my mind to considering other sys 80 GTBs. This game also made it possible to pick up this youth Can Am for the kids, which will get more use from them than pinball.
