« on: February 12, 2014, 02:15:11 PM »
Saw this on ebay, seller says "CABINET HAS BEEN REPAINTED TO ORIGINAL COLOURS" but it's different to IPDB
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Aquarius-PINBALL-MACHINE-Perfect-working-order-coin-mechs-arcade-video-/181322882441?pt=AU_CoinOp&hash=item2a37af9d89

IPDB: http://www.ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=79&picno=10485&zoom=1

I have one of these to restore andy my cab is rotted bad so I would like to know what's correct here ebay or IPDB.

If the ebay one isn't correct then what machine is the artwork from?

[edit] just noticed the flyer, still like to know where he got the art design from?

Does not look like familiar gottlieb artwork - Possible own design.

It has been painted over with what appears to be house paint given the thickness and sheen of the finish. The game is a cracker and would look great in original paint.
