It's a great game. Repro plastics have been made a couple times. Repro ramps are available down under, and Pinball Inc is working on ramps as well.

I've restored one, and I'm working on another for myself at this point with a NOS set of playfields - just waiting for Pinball Inc to finish their ramps, and hopefully Color DMD to make a display for it

There are lots of fabulous underrated games with few if any repro parts made for them. Doesn't make them bad games.

Here's one I fixed up for another local Pinhead. I think mine will be every bit as nice, perhaps a touch nicer!

Quoted from Eddie:

My customer is on a very limited budget as is my time. (Weekends only) Could I make mine nicer of course I could.
Do your assemblies get this treatment?

My comment was aimed at my previous WCS restoration - not your current project.

My personal WCS will get a restoration that is better than the previous one, mainly because I'm putting a NOS playfield set and new ramps/plastics into it, and the one I linked used a nice original PF set, nice original ramps, etc.

But yes, my assemblies all get detailed to better than original quality. I don't use any non-original looms or anything like that, because I prefer my restorations look original. Every square inch of every part of the game was torn down, cleaned, polished, rebuilt, etc. That's what restoration implies. I don't like to do shop jobs on games, but I do enjoy restorations!

My time is also very limited - job, business, kids, etc, so I can appreciate what you're saying. I've got projects backed up for quite a ways, so I better live a long time
