well i know they came with thunderjaws cause i have 2 on my control panel and they are in the manuel.

looks like yours is missing some micros. also its missing the rubber like band that goes around that white cylinder. Its used to activate the micros
 
atari logo joysticks are on a number of games. I know there are both micro switch and leaf versions and I'm not sure which games use which. I know gauntlet and gauntlet II, cyber ball definitely use these type of sticks. Pretty sure that same style stick was also used on pacmania, galaga 88 and probably dragon spirit.
 
I haven't seen leaf versions, but I believe they also were made in 4- and 8-way varieties. Klax uses two 4-way microswitch Atari logo joysticks.
 
All the Gauntlet I and II's I have seen have been leaf switch whereas the Cyberball's have been microswitch.
 
The micros are all there and they activate just fine when you move the stick. It is complete with some harness attached. I'll look up the cyberball manual...thanks.

Has anybody remade these? I've encountered numerous times where this is deteriorated into mush.

well im sure it still works, the joystick probably just moves further then normal. From the left pic it definitly looks like its missing the rubber band i could be wrong i guess

also the band is only used on the mircos not the leaf ones
