Where can I find a Front Line twist-fire control?

huygens:
The Taito Frontline Controller is wired like a regular 8-way joystick + a button. A rotary Interface isn't required.
RandyT:

The GP-Wiz40's built-in Roto-X feature supports a special mode for games controlled in the way Front-Line was.  But you still need a rotary switch based control to use it.

Nope, the page says out of stock... I'm thinking I might just be better off looking for an entire front line to restore..

Sorry about that, I didn't notice the out of stock

 Yes, but we were talking about using a mechanical rotary as an alternative control method. Afaik, Mech.Rotaries are far more plentiful and easier to get hold of.

 Correct me if Im wrong, but isnt there a keypress buffer delay?  Meaning, if you turn 8 clicks in less 1/4 a second, it might take like 1 full second for the onscreen character to fully rotate to the intended position due to mames need for consecutive keypresses rather than the direct switch?
