So I'm sitting here thinking about my Space Shuttle...potential market, or bad idea?

I'd be down for a repro shuttle for the right price.
Wait, someone is making new playfields!! Mine is totally shot. I imagine its going to cost a small fortune.
Btw my ramps aren't broken but my playfield more than makes up for it.
 
Seen on RGP:

"We are currently working on both the Space Shuttle ramp and white
shuttle. The tooling is finished, next we have to program the CNC
cutting and do the testing. If all goes well we hope to have them
finished later this month or early next.
Thanks,

He'll yes. Thanks for the update. Still haven't found a reliable free way to access groups on iPhone and too lazy to set up newsreader at home. Gives me the motivation to order the 100$ in parts I need for mine currently.

It took long enough but we've finally finished the Space Shuttle ramp!
By far this has been the most challenging ramp we've done to date. We
were determined to make the ramp much stronger than the original and
much thicker, we succeeded on both counts.

In the common break area this new ramp is over 5 times as thick as
original and we used a stronger plastic. We also were able to get a
flap on the ramps which make the shots MUCH smoother than original.

We also have the new Space Shuttle ship ready to go as well. It too is
much thicker than original.

We will have the ramp and ship at the Ohio Show this weekend and will
begin shipping to the distributors next week. We will have them on our
website soon after all the distributors have a chance to get them in
stock.

Special thanks to Tim Christie who let me abuse his machine for testing.
And David Morse for getting us a blank playfield so we can test fit
each ramp before they go out.


Cheers.

Thanks for posting that. Wonder what the price will be now that I have spent all my money on Stargate lol. Hopefully they will make a shitton.
