I just got my order from centsibleamusements.com and notice that the orange and green translucent buttons I ordered are different sizes. It's a small difference, but a noticable one none the less.
The green ones are, I'd have to say, about 2 or 3 millimeters maybe more smaller than the orange ones. The orange ones also have c-clips, which the green ones do not, which leads me to believe that they are made by two different companies.
I don't mean to discourage anyone from buying from centsibleamusements, I'm just stating this for anyone who is interested in purchasing similar items to know that you should probably ask first...
I have already e-mailed them and am now waiting for a response, lets hope this all gets worked out. But in case it doesn't, and if you know a place that has either the green translucents with the c-clip or the orange ones without it please post it.

I don't have an answer to that question, but I did notice one thing.
If you are ordering translucent microswitch buttons for them, and need the switches (that don't come with them), then you would be wise to instead order entire microswitch button assemblies with switch (only 30 cents more), and have a bunch of spare buttons.
I might make my next control order be from them. Since I could use a new pinball, some pinball rubbers, bulbs, two round red targets, and maybe some other stuff as well.
Note, their leaf joys are not true wicos, but are knock offs, and are not quite as good as the original.

The ones I got were leaf switch buttons.

In case anyone is confused as to the size difference I'm reffering to, as the people at centsibleamusements were, here's a pic I took illustrating the difference.
