Should have posted that you were desperate enough for one that you'd have it shipped... I sold one for cheap about 6 months ago, and could've pulled those 3 anytime... *shrug*
New England Warehouse raid...yes Again! Lots of pics!
- Thread starter Dewman
- Start date
6 months ago is when I probably when it got bumped up to the top of my want list, after playing it at the Seattle show. My wife likes it, most of my friends that aren't gamers would play it, etc.
I think the shipping option only really came up now that 3 are showing up at once, as splitting the shipping cost would make it much more manageable (if dewman's interested in parting with them). Alone I may not ship cross country, but if someone else in the Pac NW is in, then the option opens up.
I guess it's a wash though, I didn't know you knew about these 3 and you didn't know I was looking for one.

Eh...I sold mine since it's really not all that fun once you learn the 'patterns'... and if I were to keep one, I'd prefer an ICB to a ZP...
I know it would get old eventually, but I still want one. I'm not going to be pick about ZP or ICB... I'll take whichever I can get.
Yup, same here, I would take either... and I started to really want one too after playing it at the Seattle show this year.

Both games are totally awesome, ya know if you own one and enjoy seeing other people having a good time from playing your games..then either one of these are great. Sure you can learn the patterns playing alone..but with friends over in the gameroom having a few beers these are awesome...

So what has that Omega Race cab behind the Elvira pin been converted into? It's been painted red and has lightning decals on the side... not to mention it appears that the original bezel has been turned 90 degrees.

SWEET SCORE ON THE 3 ZEKE's!!!
I don't know, its got good replayability and damn good drinking game! I've had it a year and it still gets massive love and is still fun to play, a crowd forms around the machines and blocks the walkway in and out of the back gameroom.
ROFLMAO, that is a fact! I have had well over a dozen requests or offers to part with one or the other, to even call or email if I have the slightest feeling to relieve myself... It was so beloved in Seattle there was practically a line to play ZP all weekend at the show. If I hadn't brought it out the NW craze for these wouldn't have started... This year we will have a ZP and ICB setup for the masses, but I'm sure neither one is for sale.

Yeah, that's exactly why I want one. The non gamers would still get a kick out of playing it.
Osver... let's make this an official call out for 2 ICB or ZPs!! Anybody who knows a minimum of 2 of either of these machines, contact either of us...
I had been intrigued by the game since RadArcade got his years ago, but then finally playing yours sealed the deal. I must have one someday. Playing the one at the Pinball Hall of Fame only reinforced that need.

Yeah... great games for sure. Very unique. I sold my ICB and held on to the Zeke's since it is a bit harder to find. I also like the art better.
These games are set up to use a ticket dispenser. I do run one in mine for time to time for fun.

Replay value is great on my ICB. I replaced every switch and both pulley hoses.
I think I prefer the ICB over the Zeke... but I cant be sure until I have one actually in the house and set up. What I do like about the ICB is the fact it plays 99 bottles of beer as you play.
But the art IS a lot nicer and nicer to look at on the ZP for sure... as RadArcade said.
Wickedbass is right about replay value. I can finally get through the 10th hole and start again, but the game is still fun for me as the second time through I force myself to find a different way to the tough holes than the route I took the first time... as there seems to be several ways to most of the holes that will work.
This has HUGE replay value in my house, my son loves it A LOT and the guys always end up playing it over and over when they stop by to do a game day. It is always a HUGE plus when you can find a game that has replay value for kids too... helps pull them into the hobby as well.
If fact, I cut my collection down to about 24-25 games for winter (to open the house up) and the rest go to storage until spring...ICB made the cut easily this year...lol
After Xmas, I have to bring the Granny home... and the second Duramold has to come into my office for restoration... I think I will be pulling in one or two of the ZP in as well once the tree is gone and I can put a couple of pins where it is. I brought in all the glass though so it wouldnt get damaged in the cold. I will post pictures as I go.
All I can say though is dont lose faith... since I got my ICB and people in the area here were able to play it, there are a fair amount of us that were actively looking for ZPs or ICBs. Nobody has seen one since I got my ICb... and Bam! 3 of them in one spot! And within an hour of my house... hell I drove to VT to get my nonworking ICB...lol ... so there could be a bunch in your area too... just sitting waiting to be discovered by someone who will bring them into the light of day!
I am super interested in seeing if the board and pulley motors work... and now I cant wait until AFTER Xmas...lol

Heh... That would be 3 minimum if you want one too.
There's an Ice Cold Beer at the Lyons Pinball Arcade here in Colorado, but it never seems to be working. Are they not lit up until you put a quarter into them or something? It seems sort of weird for him to have had a non-working game in there for so long (all of his games are working 99% of the time).
By the way, here's a good youtube video of Ice Cold Beer (there are some of Zeke's Peak as well; they both seem really popular!):

See, this is the way to offset the high costs of shipping! This may be what people start doing huh?
OK... we are on the lookout now for THREE (3) ICB or ZPs in the Pacific NorthWest!!
