WTB: TMNT parts [US/MA/Cape Cod]

[patchboston]

Looking for the following,

TMNT pcb, 4 player (working)

The 4 color variations of Buttons & Joysticks

Control Panel Overlay

Coin Door Stickers

Edit* Marquee, too.


In the future I'll be itching for NOS side art, but not right away. Other items are more important at the moment!
I'll be starting a restoration thread for this game later on tonight...check it!

I got new balltops from Wu on KLOV, and new buttons from Bob Roberts.
He has all the original colors, except for the ugly puke orange. Ask him for the "Taxi Cab Yellow" long buttons (They aren't listed), they look BETTER as they match the balltop closer, and they're really all you'll find now anyway.

As for finding NOS art........good luck. I have yet to see any, but Mamemarquees carries Inkjet repro stuff. Coin door stickers, those can be found on localarcade and someone can print em for you.

oh cool, I've ordered from Wu before!

hey, do you happen to know what kind of joystick bases came installed? I need to find 4 of those too.
Thanks for such a helpful post!

They're your run of the mill Wico Leaf bases, Wu has them too but he has no leaf switches for them.
You can order chinese knock-off leafs from Bob (I've read mixed reviews on them) or someone may have used Wico switches.

Check eBay.  They have a NOS CPO out there now.

Shhhhhhh lol (I already told him)
Shipping cost to me on the other hand is absurd, so no chance in hell I'd have bid.

Only two items I'm looking for now are the coin door stickers and a marquee!
Everything else is accounted for a paid

[ken_cinder]

I've only seen the coin door stickers on Ebay from one seller, but despite his "Title" they are NOT coin door stickers for the original TMNT, they're for Turtles in Time (Colors are different, Mikey is straight up orange not yellow).

Best bet, is the file on localarcade and have somewhere like Staples print it out for you. If you can get that file off localarcade, that damn site NEVER works properly.

Marquees on Ebay, a few people on KLOV have them. I wouldn't pay what Mamemarquees is asking for an inkjet, theres plenty of originals around.

[patchboston]

I agree, no way in heck I'm going to pay those prices on mame marquees! The decals on the other hand, those look like they were designed exactly like the toy decals from the same period! I can imagine they were probably printed the same way too. For me it would be neat to peel the originals and apply them to the coin door! Kinda like walking back in time to my childhood when I was sitting in my room placing the tmnt stickers on everything but the toys. ah, good times.

If anyone has a marquee, please hit me up!

Bump..still looking for a marquee and/or coin door stickers!
