I'm sure that most genesis owners have had to deal with the broken ramp issue that plagues this game. Does anybody make new ramps or is anyone planning on making new ones?

I would check with Steve at Pinball resource.
 
Both of mine are bad at the entry points, but the left ramp has a piece broken out where the screw holds it in place and it moves when the ball goes up the ramp.
 
I spoke with Steve about it, he is not planning on another run just yet, may be years..I have two working ones, but they are cracked pretty good, I was about to mold and form a set of my own to try, but had a few other projects working so I will wait to try it later.
 
Always knackered, mine were fixed with bondo and pink nail polish !!!!
Posts are also rather large wood screws.

After hearing that the ramps are usually broken, you would think that someone would make these. I guess because it's a gottlieb game, and low production, no one wants to invest the time and effort.
 
You would think that its low production, but I think I read they may 3500 of those, which means someone out there has those molds, I know when they made those they were alluminum. Who own Gottlieb rights, I wonder if a guy could track them down....

If the molds are still around.....either Gottlieb, LLC has them......or Pinball Resource/Steve Young (who would have access, regardless).

I emailed steve at PBR today and asked him if he had any ramps or had access to be able to make more and his only response was " I no longer have those" and didn't elaborate.

Parts problems such as this is one of the reasons that people stay away from gottliebs.

I believe there was a guy a claiming he bought nos ones some years back on RGP. You can try to post a message there....
