wizard of war joystick leafs
rockin_rick:
Is there anywhere to get the 'dual switch' leafs used on the Wizard Of Wor joysitcks? These had 4 leafs, 3 of which were contacts (making 2 switches). Is the only place ebay if (big if) someone posts some for sale?
Thanks,
Rick

You can make your own by altering a Pac-stick.
The Midway leafswitches are a bunch of pieces put together, so you can kind of mix-and-match to get what you need.

You can try this place and see if you can find what you want. They have many different types of leaf switches.

Can't believe the site is still online ... Wico closed a year ago.
I do wonder if some pinball suppliers might have suitable switches.
Cheers

p.146 - Gottlieb leaf switch #GA28693 $3.99
p.156 - Williams flipper switch (SW1A192) #122SW0011 $2.89

p.157 - Williams switch (SW2010A) #122SW0023 $3.99
I've attached a pic from the net of the bottom of the (what I believe to be is) original joystick. I also attached a pic of some of the choices of Williams leafs. I got a pacman joystick here, maybe I'll give some of these a try... Well, looking at them again, the choices seem like they would be too long and hit the other leafs.... hmmmm
Should I assume that the originals are not available? Does it matter if one of these will work?
