Name that Bandit...please!
Topic moved & merged - Site Admin.
Can anyone put a makers name to this bandit? a collector in the USA has asked if I can tell him anything about it, its a very late hopper pay machine for sure , a re-cased Bally perhaps? although there is nothing from the coin entry to the cash tray that really shouts "Bally" to me

Yes, you're right. When the owner mentioned the mech had "Space Co" on it I not only remembered the machine but already had a photo of one on my web site
It's quite a famous machine. It was rushed out to compete with the Bally Money Honey and there was a much publicised debut at the Palace Club in Reno. It was a disaster - the machines proceeded to continuously empty their hoppers throughout the evening for no apparent reason!! Needless to say, they didn't make many and the company was dead within 4 years.
