Wico part number

[Timoe]

Anybody know the part number for a complete Wico Leafswitch joystick?


What about just the leafswitch?

[Kremmit]

Wico is out of business, and they were out of leaf joysticks for years before that.  Any part # would be invalid now.

[Timoe]

oh yeah, negative nelly?

Well I talked to a guy today who has an inventory of Wico products.  I asked him for some leafswitch joysticks or joystick leafswitches and he says, "eh, you gotta part numba?"

And I says to the guy, I says, "no"  an He says, "git me a part numba" and "call back tomorrow when the parts guy is in an we can check fors ya"


So dont go crushin' my dreams so fast, ya parts hoarder

In that case, old buddy, old pal, maybe as long as you're buying stuff, you could do me a favor and pick some stuff up for your bestest friend? 

[Timoe]

You're probably right in that he might have some newer Wico stuff but the leafswitch stuff is somewhat unlikely. 

I didnt get a chance to call on Wednesday.  I hope to try on Thursday.

[Timoe]

 

yeh you were right with your "everyone already knows that wico is out of bidness" stuff.

They dont have and cant get the joysticks.  They do have 15-20 replacement leafswitches though.

They can be found fairly often on fleabay. Just make sure you're buying genuine Wico and not "Wico Style" or some other flavor of cheap knockoff.

I got a steal of a deal on 3 blue NOS 8 ways for $30 a little while back.  So really, I'm set.

I just want to hoard parts. 

Like some other people, ya know.  I'd just like to have and arkanoid spinner, a tempest spinner, a tron spinner.    ... You know, just sitting on my desk.  I'll never install them or use them, just take pictures of them and what not...

[Stingray]

I just want to hoard parts. 

Understood.

Would the Tron spinner be working, then?
