WTB: Reproduction Battlezone Joystick Bellows

Oh, I didn't know Food Fight used the same centering bellows. Interesting.
 
To me these bellows were a little stiff for Battlezone. So I drilled about 16 holes in them (only a small amount of the bellow is removed each time and the hole basically closes back up). I just kept checking them every four or five times I drilled them, to find the right feel to them. To me I got them feeling perfect.

I don't think we'll ever see a reproduction of the original bellows. With the design involving the metal ring and collar adhered to the rubber, I'm not sure how they got those to adhere with each other well in the first place and lasting.
 
Aah! Success! I sent Tom the money today in a paypal link for the bellows. So glad I was able to get a few of these. Was afraid he stopped selling them.
