Anyone know of anywhere I can get a nice translite for WCS94? I found some site over seas that is a poor repro... I got excited for a moment. oh well. Anyone selling a NICE translite, let me know!
 
Um good luck it seems. I looked at the normal places and even a couple other places and the only person that carries it is marco, but they are out of stock...

Have you tried posting on rec.games.pinball maybe someone parted one out.

I would, but it's down again. Stupid google news (or whomever is to blame).
 
would a high quality scan of one help you at all? I can kinkos the shit out of one for ya. Your posts about your WCS is what led me to get one. I would love to return the favor.
 
Good luck, I only found one when I was looking, and it was from John Pop himself...something to do with copyright, nobody has really made a proper remake that I know of...mine had a hole cut out of it for a coin counter :/
 
Beerorkid, I appreciate it, but am looking for an original.

Sad thing is, the one I have isn't terrible... it is signed by John, in fact. It's just not perfect, and therefore I want a NOS one. I know, not going to happen, but a guy can dream.
 
Just gonna butt in here and say OMFG I absolutely love the ever loving crap out of my WCS. It was the one machine that finally cured my craving to BUY ALL THe MACHINES that pop up on my local CL. I am experiencing happiness and actually feel that my craving for a good pin has been resolved. I still look, but I doubt I can afford to buy a pin at near the same cost that will be better. JP fricking rocks. Such a great game.
 
What I find about this game is it plays sort of weak... sort of poorly, like the shot are hard to hit, the ramps don't feel smooth, when you don't find the right level. When you level it perfectly, it plays super smoooooooth. All shots are easy to hit, all ramps flow smoothly like butter. And nothing is more satisfying than hitting goals for jackpots. I've set mine up super difficult. I used to have TV lit at start, striker lit at start. Now, nothing is lit up and you have to work for everything, making every step of the way very rewarding. I like that you can go for the world cup AND go for victory laps while jackpotting multiballs, so when you get one achievement, you can go for the other while building up the first again. Then somewhere in the middle, you work up your goals for TV wards and striker awards, not to mention loading up on the ultra awards for end of ball bonus. You're always shooting at SOMETHING.

Anyhow, I think I've explained my love for the game more than enough. I only have three pins, the other two being Shadow and TZ, and yet this is the one I play the most.
