Title: Betty Boop Post by: cowboygames on February 24, 2012, 10:22:40 PM Found this ad in Prescott AZ. Anyone ever seen one and know how the bonus game worked? Can't find anything on youtube, only the new video version

Like the "Roll The Dice" theme (link below) http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=16059.msg136926#msg136926 (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=16059.msg136926#msg136926) the base game is a classic "Blazing 7's" but with a 4,000 Top Award. You get the Bonus Game when you hit a special symbol on the 3rd reel. A flashing light revolves on the high topper and gives you 25, 50, 75, 100, 200, 500, 1000 or 2000 + a multiplier (x1 or x2) so you can win from 25 to 4,000 Bruno :88- (PIC : Ring The Bell, Roll The Dice, Ring The Bell) Title: Re: Betty Boop Post by: cowboygames on February 25, 2012, 11:23:31 AM Thanks for the info Bruno. Are these based on the Bally 5500 series games then? Ad states a mid 90s manufacture date, but I don't know when they went from the 5500 to the 6000 series. And of course, what are they worth?
Title: Re: Betty Boop Post by: bruno on February 25, 2012, 10:23:03 PM These models (high toppers) are the last manufactured in 5500, then there was some in 6000 (not much)
I think Bally went to the 6000 during 1996 & 1997 In France these models (relatively rare) are sold around €1,300 |
