I think they also offer the service on eBay. If you need board work, there's someone in Houston area I believe that does repairs. That's where most of the parts I needed came from. I'd bet that people on this thread could provide a lot of the parts you'd be looking for. Some can be expensive as well but they are out there, you've just got to ask around. You're not going to be able to go on Marcos and order everything you need right away but they come up on eBay from time to time. In my experiences of owning one for 3 years, I'd say the parts not available notion is somewhat of a myth. What would any current owners suggest? Should I be worried about the lack of available parts?ĭoesn’t get much love on the Pinside ratings list and I have never played it but it looks fine from the layout. Wonder what things to look at/for when I go view. I believe I have special set as a 60,000 point award. The wear on it suggested it was on location at some point before then, but I was surprised at how nice it looked given what I was expecting when I was told it didn't work right (it was free, so I really expected a total train wreck). I really lucked out on Superman the person I got it from said he got it from another home owner in 1981 and had kept it in his basement ever since. I think I saw a place in Canada with them, but since mine still works (just doesn't look great) I've held off. I have a broken one that I'd like to replace but they seem mostly out of stock (at least in that color).
Only part that has frustrated me in terms of acquisition are the white octagon stand-up targets. My other thought would be the batteries (in my case we'd already changed to an external holder and were still having issues). All the scoring/tracking issues resolved when they were tightened up.
In my case, the fuse block was the problem, and while it appeared the fuses were in tightly they actually did not have good connection and so there was some intermittent behavior. Mine had this issue when I got it, but it was also exhibiting other strange behavior (losing track of which ball it was on most notably). My machine is set to high score to date, but not registering any high scores, anybody have any idea why not?
