I have a TAXI if you are interested

scared stiff is layered, there is a translight that is mainly a clear window, then you have various plastics mounted on standoffs on a partly printed lightboard

thanks for the offer on Taxi but unfortunately not interested in that one.

I forgot about the layering of scared stiff, so count that off the list.....

Hey Swinks, I have a framed BBB translite if you are interested, comes with a free Stargate outer (complete with complimentary scratches).

Got the BBB from the original Capcom run (the ones Gene used were also from the original run), so it's the genuine Capcom article. Got this while waiting for the BBBs to be built.

Not sure what it's worth, PM me if interested and we'll work something out.

Marco Specialties has alot of the older translites avail and at reasonable prices, but barely any of the newer Stern translites available (which i just buy direct from Stern anyway)

http://www.marcospecialties.com/control/keywordsearch;jsessionid=6DF93A03C518114E2305C14930A5050C.jvm1?SEARCH_STRING=translites

13 pages of translites, with most of the ones u have listed.

Notice how all the Bally/Williams are jacked to buggery, but all other manufacturers are very very reasonale, if not at bargain basement pricing.
