This is only the top half, there is more to this drop target where I have the blue dash lines but I have no idea what that section looks like or its length. This is snapped off right where the little 8mm 'resting ledge' finishes ( at the bottom of the 37mm marking )

I have looked at Pinball Resouce site as well and I cant see them there - unless I am blind?

Cheers

Hey Wotto, Drop target is from a system 80...

My dimensions seem to be different...  ::)

For starters the head is the same height @ 28 mm but the width is narrow @ 23 mm..

The shaft seems to be a little different going by your pics !  !@#

have a look at the pics and let me know... If you want it its yours..

The ones i had to replace were snapped in half also. I was pretty sure that it was due to the tension on the screws that hold em in place - too tight and they dont drop,and ball can snap them as target absorbs all the force.
Just a theory... but i like it, sounds sort of "techy"

its just the standard gtb drop used on  games such as Stargate, Freddy etc
there on my site if you don't luck out with Gav  (art work Nino are decals and I'm sure Watto can handle that part)


just a thought   should they be black drop targets on Freddy?
