New machines

[fray]

Quite a few new machines round our way now, got anything on them?

Trailblazer, Mazooma, quite a new design, seems very tight. Force job?

Reel Good time, Global (and tons of other clones like this - some beer theme 1 and others) - again a force is what I've been looking at, had the £75 from Wildside the other night - looks the same ?

Abracadabra, obv a GBC clone but seems harsher for some reason, a lot lot tighter. Any idea why?

Mega Zone, Barcrest looks total shite but new design again, DnP type gambling, but on 2 trails. a 5 liner type as well.

Cool Jewls, BFM. Standard fodder / streak / avoid ?

Top gear discussed elsewhere.

Some card / joker theme bellfruit, hi lo gambles like gbc but TERRIBLE, forced 1 for some reason, first board offered £10. £80 in later 1 JP, no afters, shocking.

Anything appreciated

Bell fruit Joker thing.DO NOT FORCE NO MATTER WHAT. Has an anti force profile as far as I can see, lost 90 trying to get 25, from FULL FIRST POUND and it wasnt engineer either. Seems to run the same profile as get me out of here etc. BFM are wising up....Global, watch the boards, if you get high first one or two, might be worth a force, tho it seems to drop 10 plus when it is ripe without seeing a jp. Abra, only worth pocket cash unless it is full to max. You can tell if boards giving centre board right off or close and not taking extra life in 1-2 spins, if it is, WALK AWAY. Top Gear, as you say read discussions, feature side will gamble up when ready. Trailblazer..watch it, its a sneaky one, will let you think it is in a good mood then die forever! As for the others, not heard of em just yet. Hope this helps some

Definitely agree about trailblazer Levartemit, blows well hot and cold, although had one go for 75 a week ago. Mega Zone is more like Horn of Plenty than DnP, the repeat pot likes to repeat (had £20 off £5 repeat off the one in my pub, and had a tenner repeat) so is ok for a quick steal. I wouldn't reccomend forcing any globals these days, had a couple of bad experiences on wildside as it can force JP on you, killing any chance of a streak (i think???). If that card/joker machine is the one that looks a bit like rich geezer i found it ok for a quick win but the new bellfruits do block for ages (see my post on powerball!) so i don't usually bother. Hope this helps.

As I suspected for these then, more to avoid tbh

These globals are everywhere here - I think they are Wildside clones and very tedious. £75 in there somewhere...

Abracadbra cheers. Never mind the jackpots always been generous to me as has JJC, just Abra is pants. Any ideas what the big blaster / red number runner is on Never mind? Think they all called something different.

Mega zone just looks so shit I have left it.

At least Trailblazer as decent music heh.

Thanks all, another 'play' on them today perhaps.

Oh yes, Crown Jewels is a lovely m/c imo, never lost yet on it. £10-12 always there from mega nudges or knockouts for me. Luck or better profile on this bellfruit?

Crown Jewels, terrible. Blocks boards for fun, never mind £4.

Also I wasn't fond of the re-introduction of not being able to collect on a '?'.

Although it has slightly increased playability its too difficult to read when the damn thing is gonna kill you.

I wouldnt mind having a bash on a Mega Zone, looks strange indeed!

Must have another lucky m/c that is always buzzed. It is in a late night bar / club.

Boards can take a while to come in, but likes the super board, almost always £8+.

Agree it's hard to read though, before my JP repeat it was killing me off before £3.

Off superboard to ? / lose, and extra life to ? / lose, then start to ? / lose is terrible though.
