Blue/Yellow Balltop for Wico leafjoysticks?
« on: June 05, 2005, 12:43:58 pm »
I use the good old Wico leafjoysticks on my Joust-alike-controlpanel and wonder if there are some replacements with (bright) blue and yellow balltop out there that would fit?

PonyBoy is selling Wico balltop NOS handle replacements in various colors and two lengths (3.5" and 4").

If Pony doesnt have colors you are interested in, then I would recommend Specialty Plastics.  http://members.aol.com/specialtyplastic/

I'm pretty sure Wico never offered the pastel blue and yellow colors that Joust used as they were strictly "Willliams" colors. Tom at http://members.aol.com/specialtyplastic/index.htm

Well, I'll try the light blue & yellow from Ponyboy first, as Tom's reproductions are much more expensive (for a good reason, of course!).

Luckily the light blue might look good enough for me! :))
