- Nintendo Coin Door (Donkey Kong) with the outer coin plates/coin-catcher.
- Nintendo vertical monitor shroud
- 3 Nintendo pushbuttons (2 DK Blue, 1 DK Orange)

Any help would be appreciated! Will post what the current coin door looks like. Maybe someone has a suggestion to un-fudge it?

Takeman is doing another run of Nintendo coin doors. You might see if there are extras...I think they are going to be ready in December.

And the buttons are on backorder, should be back in stock in a couple weeks:

Thanks for the replies, guys! I'll get a shroud and some new buttons from Mike's new run (thanks, Mike!), possibly try my luck at a metal shop for straightening the chewed door, but if all else fails, I'll check with Takeman!

Cheers!

That door is fu'bared. It's gonna take more than a few bangs....it's gotta crease running down the middle of it. The metal will stretch as its being fixed which will need to be corrected. It'll need a coat of bondo as well.

Better to replace. A body shop will charge more than $80.

Thanks for that info! I was feeling the same way. Going to go the repro route. Get new door, new coin plates and returns and be done with that mess!

You would be amazed at what you can straighten with a hammer with a big face and a flat piece of concrete to rest the metal on... And media blasting and powder coating also does wonders...
