ICS Ice Crystal Game?

[Belgarion42]

I'm looking for a game I played about 25-some years ago. I've been looking everywhere I can think of for the last few years and have come up with nothing. I'm hoping someone here can help me (slight chance, I know, but I've gotta try!). As I recall, it was called "I.C.S. Ice Crystal Game." I believe it came in a white rectangular box.

It consisted of clear plastic tubes about 1/4" in diameter connected by white balls with (I think) six holes in them. Each end of each plastic tube fit into a white ball, forming a 3-dimensional polygon. It also came with small pieces in a few different colors that fit over the plastic tubes.

The object was to get your color pieces on a triangle of the plastic tubes. The trick was that when you played a piece, you then rotated the "board" using the tube you played on as a pivot point.

Has anyone out there heard of this, or am I the only one? I've been looking for this game for years, and haven't been able to find it, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

If no one knows where to find this, does anyone have any thoughts on where else I can look (hard-to-find-game stores, online sites, etc.)?

I'll check my local used book store next time I'm on that end of town.

I was thinking of Edmund Scientific, but a check of their site dosn't have anything like you describe.

Thanks for the help so far. Any other suggestions are still appreciated, as well.
