We haven't had an ugly slot for some time... then this "Jennings(?)" popped up on ebay... Very Nice :o , I particularly like the "chain link fence" motif.

Well Coppinpr, if you take at this link http://www.libertygames.co.uk/store/one ... et-bandit/ you might rub your hands with glee if you reach what they are selling them for.
Cherries on reel 3? Not done! Where are the plums/bells/etc on the award card? Those electronic machines try to simulate the "buzz" of the reels as they stop but the sound comes about 200 milliseconds too late. I remember playing on a Rolatop "recreated" machine about 15 years ago at South Parade Pier, Southsea and I was not impressed. Yuk!

I had one of these once... I didn't keep it long. Built like a brick s--t house. Has the uninspiring name of 'Spinning Reels' and a door push plate screwed on the front right, I believe attributed to Tom Boland. A Mills mech. as you might expect. This was the best I could do with it. :D

While looking for a totally unrelated slot machine I found this machine, which must surely be the bench mark for worst slot ever. !OMFG! :o
