Not the games, wiseguys, but the actual photos. Have they been posted here before? How many "Icarus" machines could be out there?

Google image search turned up a few hits..
Both images appear to have been lifted from the pin rescue site:

Thanks. I thought the photos were probably lifted from elsewhere.

So now I feel that I should warn everyone here about a Craigslist seller who is using these photos in his ad. If you want to split hairs, he doesn't name the machines he's selling, or claim that the photos are his games, so you could say he isn't actually being dishonest. However, proceed with caution here, and ask for actual photos of the games he's selling if you're dealing with him.
The "Volley" has been sold, but it's not the same one shown in the photo.
The "King of Diamonds" is actually a "Diamond Jack", and not nearly in the condition of the "KOD" pictured.
He does have a Williams "Darling" for sale, but who knows if it's the same one shown in the photos.

No, not "instreaded" at all.

Yep, can confirm they were lifted from Russ/Pinrescue. I've seen photos of my machines on Ebay, also, that were lifted from posts I have made.
Nice that we have a tight community here on Pinside where we can "watch" out for one another.
