Pinball Parts Suppliers

Are you a producer or supplier and want me to review your new product? I’ll glady do that if samples are sent. Contact me at: reviews@pinballhelp.com!

Here is my “master list” of places to order pinball parts:

Essential Tools:

General Pinball Parts:

 

    • Planetary Pinball – These people purchased the Bally/WMS rights from Mr. Pinball in Australia and have a large inventory of parts and are also reproducing various pinball parts.
    • Comet LEDs – My new go-to place for LEDs, best price/quality available.
    • Cointaker – http://www.cointaker.com/ A top-quality source for LEDs, more expensive and more fancy stuff. GREAT customer service.
    • BCS Pinball – http://bcspinball.com/ Best prices I’ve found for LED lights. The only problem is their customer service and response time leaves a lot to be desired. Often they don’t have products in stock either.

 

    • Mad Amusements – http://mad-amusements.com/ UPDATE — Cannot recommend this place due to numerous complaints from the pinball community that many times, this supplier takes money and does not send product out.
    • Pinball Life – http://www.pinballlife.com/ Another site with a huge online inventory.  This is a place to check when you can’t find parts elsewhere.  Compare prices across different suppliers. In many cases Pinball Life will have the lowest price.

 

 

 

Circuit Boards and related items:

      • Pascal Janin – http://www.flippp.fr/ If you have a Gottlieb System 1 pinball game and need any boards, forget about everybody else, Pascal’s boards are what you want.  They are not only solid and reliable, they extend the abilities of the game beyond its original design.  Highly recommended!

 

 

 

 

  • http://www.kahr.us/ These people make a nifty daughterboard that will work in Bally/WMS DMD games that can often stop the random reboot problem.

 

Electronics:

 

 

 

Miscellaneous:

Cool Things:

      • http://www.pinballcontrollers.com/ – The makers of the P-ROC, the future of custom pinball controls.

  7. I have a Sinbad pinball, Gottlieb system 1. The bottom panel with the transformers, bridges and fuses mounted on it is missing from my game. Anyone with information on how i might get a replacement , please let me know. Thank You.

  8. Ok so random Bally/WMS DMD reboot problems are solved by properly fixing the board not by adding a daughter board. Just an fyi

    • This “fix” is a review of one way to address the issue, which in some cases makes the game more reliable overall. Yes, there are other “causes” that can be addressed, but the reboot issue is also an overall game design problem.

  9. This is a helpful list of suppliers. I found at least 3 suppliers for locks I have to replace because I lost the damned keys. Thanks very much !!
