Taito Ice Cold Beer - UK Release

[Purity]

Am very interested in this. Make sure you post some pics up before and after.

It's a damn good find. I think the only way I will get one of these is by importing it from the us

Don't worry, there will be tons of pics once I get it...

And I am sure he has no plans to sell either

So it finally got delivered. There are a ferw things wrong, like I have no keys and the belts are driving the arm. But the LCD works and so does the solenoids, but not hearing any music at the moment so I need to look into that.

But all in all, not bad for £200 including delivery...

Beautiful man. If you ever decide to sell it you know where I am

Looks in great shape!!!

I need to get replacement ball tops but it is not a standard joystick thread... don't suppose you would know where I could source them from...?

I suppose they could be in either Red or Black although I think that the UK cabinet had black.

Great. Let me know when you have as I will be placing an order with a guy in the US who does repro ICB parts... if you need anything then maybe I could help out.

Nice one buddy, as Ol said, she looks in good shape

 

[rcantor77]

Yeah I am pleased with the condition too... and especially for what I paid for it.

It will only need about £50 of bits and pieces and it will be ready to play...

Hey dude!

I took some pix. Excuse the garage full of my secret stash.

Closer...

I'll be in a position to actually pull it out this week for better pix

 

[Purity]

Would you sell that dude?

 

[rcantor77]

It's a Taitel - the artwork on the side says Taitel - as stated mine is exactly the same as the US shape.

Pretty sure Taitel did two version for the UK. The normal one/ticket one - which is what I have got. And the prize version which is your version.

Would you sell that dude?

Hi dude, not for sale as I love the game so much. If you are willing to blow over 1k for a really nice imported US Taito one I can get you one this week as I know someone that has one.

I will need to price up the cost of getting one from the states on a container, and see how much that is, but I wouldn't rule anything out

 

[Alpha1]

Ok let me know. The one I can get is super nice, and I am pretty sure you can't get an ICB in the USA for less than $700-800 now

Hey Rog,

Just letting you know i'm pulling this out this weekend - i'll get some better pix
