Creature From The Black Lagoon

[Cow Corner]

Hi,

I am chasing a cftbl.
I am after one with no pf wear(  lil bit of snack bar hole wear is ok) and working hologram.

Try Oscar.  He had a few. Not sure of condition.

Good luck with your hunt .
I want one too but so far haven't been able to bring myself to spend the asking $$ for one .
I recently missed out on one that The Pinball Shed had on Ebay for $2495 .. didn't see it until too late.

[Cow Corner]

Yeah I saw that one but the holo wasn't working so I passed.

[goodolddays]

Holo mods/fixes I've seen would do me at that price 

[Cow Corner]

Yeah good price if you are doing a holo mod with a toy or something like that.
For me it has to have a working holo, I think it is extremely important to the overall game.allthough I m sure many would disagree with me.

CFTBL for $2.5K?
All you will get is a heap of excrement.
This is a premium machine . . . with or sans holograph.
To even entertain buying what you're after - think circa $5K.

Great game, finding one with a perfect hologram is getting hard. Hopefully you will find a nice one for a good price.

I agree great game, colourful playfield and looks even better with strategically placed coloured leds, a car with flashing lights etc.

Check out the no hologram mod thread that I posted a little while ago, is effective as a substitute and lights up great though have never seen a hologram in a creature to compare against.

Creatures in QLD often come up for sale in excellent condition for around $2000 to $2500 with working holograms. A mate of mine had a container with 6 x excellent ones in it and he had trouble giving them away. Pinny sales seem to be all over the place. Different month, different prices.

Also, I saw him shine a white LED light onto the hologram with amazing results. I will have to check the colour   of the LED but it made the hologram look like brand new. My friend might still have a Creature for sale, so i will check for you.

Again, some titles in QLD attract alot less prices than other states.

A reconditioned CFTBL with working Holo (even if it is blue), should set you back no more than $3500. Depends on who you buy it from. $2500 will usually buy an unshopped and non working holo game.
