Tales from the Crypt Topper and shooter handle latch

Does anyone have a topper for a TFTC new or used? Or know of one for sale anywhere?

Also need the tongue thumb latch for the shooter handle. Currently just has a button installed instead.

Thanks for reading..

Re: Whitewater busted bulb in front of Bigfoot

I would dubble rubber it...

Had to do that on the center bank targets on my Skateball, as the bulb there was always getting smashed as well, hasn't broke since, and it's been a few years...

Re: BSD - just how brutal is it?

The flippers don't really matter, if you suck you suck. If you can't make shots, you can't make shots. BSD is not really a game for non-pinheads. Unless you can consistently make the left and right ramps, you will get nowhere in the game. Doubt I'll ever sell mine. I agree to buy games for yourself,...

Re: Banzai Run 3 ball multi-ball??

From what I found on RGP:

"Banzai Run is supposed to have 3 balls in the trough. It IS to
compensate for a lost ball. I dont know af any other games did this, but
due to the nature of BR I guess they felt the need to add a spare ball.. "
