OP
Quoted from snowy_owl:
I am currently restoring/retheming a baby pac man pinball machine and one of the kicker assemblies is missing from the game. I went to the marco website and (I think) found the correct assembly. However it says that it is "out of stock". Where can I get this assembly? Any help is much appreciated. Here is the link to the assembly that I need.

What are you retheming it too? Are you going to write new video software??

I probably have an extra outhole saucer assembly.

OP
Quoted from snowy_owl:
I am still working on the theme. Not quite sure yet.

No, I am not going to have a video game integrated into this game. I only have a partially populated playfield anyway. I will definitely need to rewrite the software for the game rules, but I am taking out the video game.

I will try that, thanks!

Rocketland Coin-op has about half a dozen very high quality, fully populated Baby Pac-Man playfields. If you need the whole shebang, those guys have parted out dozens of BPMs

OP
Quoted from snowy_owl:
Maybe I should rephrase that. I'm going to keep the video game out because all I have is a semi populated playfield that is missing a few things, and it would be a pain to find, buy, and possibly restore a baby pac-man cabinet. Like I said, I am re-theming the game, and I have chosen not to go to the work of finding the cabinet and re-programing the video game. And if I'm being honest, I'm not a fan of pinball/video game hybrids

Baby Pac-Man projects are cheap when they come up. You wouldn’t kill yourself buying one.

Have you played it? If it’s setup properly it’s an amazingly addictive little game.
I FINALLY acquired its sister, Granny and the Gators. Most people just set their game up really crappy and make it not fun.

It’s interesting to try and make the playfield a stand-alone game. I would add slingshots, the original prototypes had it and they removed them because the game was so chaotic.

The guys I mentioned above would sell the entire populated playfield to you for probably $150 or so.
