[quote name=\'Bryce L.\' post=\'252920\' date=\'Dec 21 2010, 03:42 AM\']There is a Yahoo user who I have spoken with, who claims to have inside contacts with someone at Television City, and he says he is trying to build a replica of the Press Your Luck game board. I, for what it's worth, am not making this up. However, I have reason to doubt the veracity of his claims. Does CBS (or any other network, for that matter) grant permission to access props from old shows to the general public? My instinct is that this guy's full of it, but I could be wrong...[/quote]
The only elements that I know exists from the old show, is the console that operated the board, and the video source of the whammy animatics. Everything else was scrapped for parts, or given away as souveniers when the show first went off the air.
If he wants to attempt a replica of the big board right down to the original hardware, he's wasting his time and money. If anything, use cgi.
