what kinda shaft would these fit on? 75 bucks might be worth it if it is more functional than my current trigger stick (raider hack)

Does anybody know if you could put one of these on an E-Stick? ???

This guy probably doesn't have a license to reproduce these handles, so if you want one, I suggest you get one soon before he gets shut down...

Wasn't Happ's going to produce these before licensing became a problem?

It's a lot of money for a MAME cabinet... it's not a lot of money if you're doing a Tron restoration.

$75 plus shipping - ouch!

They do look nice though

It's the same guy who sells ball top handles for Happ Super and Competition joysticks.

I'm sure he could make one that could be fitted to an E-Stik if someone gave him the dimensions.

Due to very dissapointing sales I will be dropping production once my remaining
invevtory is gone. I have 4 units left at 45.00 each, and a couple left that
have minor casting defects at 35 each..  If anyone wants handles after these
are gone I will take special order runs, but the price will be 65.00 each.  
If someone wants all 4 units I can lat them go for 175.00 Paypal only.

Tom
