Quoted from brenna98:Transporter cross over ramp.
That would have to be vacuformed. Ramps can't be 3D printed...yet.
Plastics, playfields, backglasses, and lockdown bars for just about every Williams I own are not available. Thank you very much!

Quoted from stoptap:I no longer have the game but Mr Big Shot for Dr Dude is pretty hard to track down.

Quoted from Grinder901:Not sure if this is what you were talking about but I can't find this assembly anywhere:
You'd have to machine that with metal, not print it with plastic.
Is 3D printing up to par for items you can see yet? I was under the impression that it was great for things you couldn't see because it was pretty solid but not too pretty looking. Those handles look a little rugged, how does the texture compare to the original?
Quoted from ForceFlow:That would have to be vacuformed.
No.. It's not. It's injection molded.
Ah, already been reproed I see. I had a hell of a job finding a NOS one for my Dr Dude a few years ago. Good to see it has been re-made.

The plastic bracket (ball eater) from this assembly seems unobtanium. I eventually used a fiberglass / resin repair kit to salvage the broken one that I had. Same part in Data East Secret Service as in Bally Mousin' Around, I think.
The plastic that houses the start button on data east games like Ricky n bullwinkle is unobtanium and I need one! I know it's also on other data east games
I bought a bullwinkle start button housing from a a german company, pinballcenter a couple months back, might check them. It was close to my broken one.
There is a thread asking for WABAC ramp interest, but no production in sight yet. Thats a sad tale.
The cave plastics from Torpedo Alley. I'd bet that almost every surviving example needs new cave plastics. I re-sculpted mine using Apoxie Sculpt, and they look a lot better, but they're far from perfect.

NOS ones still come up occasionally on ebay. Now the plastics for that game, particularly an unbroken shooter lane one... been looking for that one for years.

That sparkly sticky foil on the Mix Master is a swine to get too (or was when I had the game).

I'm pretty sure i'm never going to find a plastics set for my Sega Apollo 13 pin. 
I did find a spare blue moon ramp though. 
Quoted from Grinder901:Not sure if this is what you were talking about but I can't find this assembly anywhere:
I think Fire! Might use the same assembly. Not sure if that would help your search or not.

Worth a shot thanks!
Quoted from ForceFlow:Do you smooth them out so the 3D printing lines don't show?
Yeah, those guns look awesome, but a little rough. I have a printer that uses ABS plastic and my models look smooth as glass after an hour of acetone vapor treatment.
Quoted from Grinder901:Not sure if this is what you were talking about but I can't find this assembly anywhere:
Is this what you are looking for?
Quoted from xfassa:Is this what you are looking for?
Haha yes sir! PM sent!
Quoted from jorro:dancing dummy body

Also the long ramps and red rocket.

I hope so, but the SLA 3D prints are WAY too fragile right now to be practical.

Watch Marco's website later this week. I'm shipping him 15 of them tomorrow!
Quoted from TomT:How about someone 3d printing these? They are the players for the 1968 Bally World Cup soccer game
By the looks of it, you can make them out of Play-Doh.
Quoted from kimber:Banzai run ball lifter carrier body #03-8159
I second this - the ball lifters for Banzai Run are impossible to find.
Quoted from beelzeboob:By the looks of it, you can make them out of Play-Doh.
Lmao
Quoted from pezpunk:Wake me when you can 3d print a backglass.
I think Greatwichjohn is already doing this??
Quoted from beelzeboob:By the looks of it, you can make them out of Play-Doh.
Wow, I'm dying, love it
