          Randr,

          I would definitely trade my ICB for a Fishtales but it’s not a fair trade as an even deal (not even close.)

            yeah i agree..

            I want to make a scratch build ICB but need one to make one! and around here they are hard to find so do get around $2000-$2800 which is silly i could buy them last year for $500!

              I definitely wouldn’t trade the Fish Tales… but I don’t own either one, so take my advice with a grain of salt.     :wacko:

                Keep Fishtales!!!

                I think ICB looks like a great home built project.  Seems like they are popular, so pay the big dollar, copy it, or even improve it, then sell the original for what you paid for it.

                I kind of want to build something like this now…

                  When I say scratch build I mean exact copy! So I really need one to copy all mechanical stuff from like pulleys, metal gate and play field as examples.

                  I cannot find one to purchase locally but will keep looking

                      I bought mine in a broken down, worn out condition on ebay for $400. My son and I drove out to New Jersey to pick it up (we live in Maine so it was an overnighter :). We put about another $400 into it for new parts, power supply and motherboard repair, control panel overlay, sideart etc (see below).

                      If it’s just for you to use as a guide to scratch build yours, I would be happy to provide any dimensions, pictures, or other details (inside and out) for you.

                        I may take you up on that! How long did you find your ICB? was it recently?

                          I bought it in November of 2010. It would be no problem for me to photograph, video,  or scan any part for you. With the reproduction playfield back available on ebay, the rest would be easy to reproduce. I even have 2 brand new spare motors if you need them.

                          Let me know what you need and I will get right on it!

                                          Okay. This sounds like a fun project. I’m in.

                                          Don’t trade your FishTales. We’re gonna do this.

                                            I’m going to keep looking would be much easier to do if I had my hands on one but should be fairly easy I think
