Randy, I do admit I haven't tried the Leaf-Pro yet. I haven't had need to order from you since before you introduced that stick. I will try to pick one up when I can.

I've had quite a number of folks tell me that the Leaf-Pro 4-way is the best experience they have had with "Pac" games since using the original, and that is after trying the other options out there. ;)  You really should try one, if the gameplay of the original stick is something you are after.

It does have a different base, so slapping it into an existing machine, made for the sticks you mentioned, isn't an option.  But that's not too hard to get past.

Thanks for the replies.  I'll probably snag a JLW and Leaf-pro just to try out (esp. since I have other things to order from Ultimarc and GGG anyway).  Reunion sticks don't seem as available as some of the others, though, haven't seen them on my usual go-to online shops.

Divemaster127 has them here.

While you're at it, you can also order your Ultimarc stuff from him since Gary is an authorized reseller.

i'll second the midway pacman stick. i found one in a burned out cab. BEST stick I've ever used for classics. 

if you go super cheap, if you take a zippyy and then take the 8 way diamond restrictor and rotate it so the points are NSEW, works quite well.
requires drilling 2 holes in the plastic restrictor plate.

Thirded, although I only have one, so it goes in the MultiPac cab and Wico goes in my classic 4-way cab.
