Hello,
I recently got a Tmnt in decent shape. It has a few broke plastics, two are clear and I will just make new out of lexon. The other two I would like to replace, the right Outlane has a ear broke off and the peice below the pop bumpers has a chunk out of he middle but is taped back together.
If I was going to keep it forever I might put the $130 plastic set in, but a friend and his buddy came over recently, and he's begging me to sell him the game. I want to give him a decent product when I shop it just don't know if the entire plastic set is worth him paying for.

I would say, if you're going to sell it, and they are aware of the broken plastics, then leave it, and let them decide if they want to spring for a new set. But if you plan on keeping it for yourself, and you think it's worth the money for new plastics, then do it. Not sure how hard the individual pieces are to find, but the sets are available like you mentioned.

Can you post pictures of the ones you need? I parted a playfield out years ago, if I had a picture I can check to see what is left.

These are the three plastics I would like to replace. Realistically I can make the clear skill shot ramp cover.
Thanks

For the pop bumper one I ended up making a protector. It's still cracked so I put Mylar on it and leveled it with a heat gun. This shrunk the Mylar and is holding it together real nice. For the lane guide I harassed people on eBay until I found one. In the mail now.
The clear ones I cut and sanded new ones out of lexan.
Unfortually I don't have a scanner right now. And I have a time crunch. Leaving for MGC Friday morning.
