So - It's the end of the decade!   What was your favorite slot toy you got this year??



Mine was the Reel Touch.    Now if I can just find a Flip Flop kit by midnight my year will be complete!

Happy New Year everyone!

Not sure whether it was the Chainsaws & Toasters kit from Bettor Slots or the 2x3 Supreme display from John54346464, but the C&T is leading by a hair just because I have it installled....










<edit> credit where credit is due...

Didn't buy any slots this year.  :8-
I would have to say the slot chairs and Garfield topper I got from Buzz. THANKS BUZZ!!!! :3- :3- :3-

Red, White, and Blue IGT S2000 that I purchased from Bettor Slots.

I WOULD LIKE TO WISH EVERYONE A SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010. ALSO KEEP THE DRINKS AWAY FROM THE GAMES!!!!! JOHN

Hot Hot Peppers from Bettor Slots is my new favorite....... thanks, Jim

 :244-

DITTO... Exactly the same for me as above !  :89-  .... Thanks BUZZ  :3-

LOL...
I don't know where to start...I liked everything I got this year and I am very thankful for everything.
I've made countless friends that I will cherish forever...that will beat anything I've bought! :89-

The trip to Jim's with the little red subaru was fantastic and getting my
1st S2000 with my all time favorite title of Double Diamond Haywire will rank up right up there!

All of them. 2009 is/was the first time we bought any slot machines. First I got a Bally S6000 Bonus Frenzy & Bally GameMaker from Ron Spadie of SAMRON Slots. Drove from VA to Kentucky to pick them up.  Meet with Ron and his wife Sam and wow what nice people. Me and the wife really enjoyed visiting with them. Next picked up a S+ 5X pay here locally. And had it not been for the snow would have had an S200 Double Diamond Haywire From Jim at Bettorslots, but we rescheduled for this weekend.  I don't think I"m going to try to get it in my trunk like our friend dabunker.  Instead I'm borrowing a van.  Any way that my story and I'm sticking to it.   Happy New Year everybody.   Mike

Happy New Year you guys and gals....I love coming here on NLG and seeing what you are all up to.

May your New Year be full of happiness.....and of course...may it be full of more slots !!!   :5-

I bought a lot of them, but this one is by far my favorite!
2005 WMS Bluebird Upright 5 cent with hopper.
Glass says "Super Jackpot party" (which i do have)
But has Monopoly Grand Hotel running in it at this time....

Kirk

Great machines everyone!!!

Happy new year!!!

 :244- :244-

For me it was a tie...........Mine was finally getting all the parts to assemble that Ms. Little Green Men 5 reel in my avatar to the left of this post.  The other was the 044 I Game machine, Carnival of Mystery, I purchased from Jim at Blueridge Slots.

My game would be a reel touch, Buck$ Ahoy from Dan's Games. Lots of sights and sounds.

Ron (r273)

Here is one more...too many toys...too many to choose from..... :97-

For me it would have to be my Barcrest...special thanks to Ken at Ohio Gaming for hooking me up on that deal.  Also a special thanks to Ron and Bob from Samron for sending a rare Reel Touch my way, a Frog Prince.

CAN YOU INTERPRET  W T S  TOPIC PLEASE !!  EDIT WANT TO SELL

Jeff if i had your money lol i would burn mine .. your holding off on toys you purchased !!

oh i forgot you drive a car that gets 80 mpg

not like mine 8 mpg lol

ha ha ha tiger said this would happen lmao

That Double Diamond Deluxe with Cheese is the best game I have ever played, worth the 400 miles I drove to play it, and other things.

One of the 2009 favorites would have to be my new RGB display

wow...those are awesome !!!  Can you get some graphics of some Playboy Bunnies to dance around on those and put them in front of a Bally ?

Jim, need to get the Ballys from you or better yet a reel touch.   :200-

Ohhhhhh man!!! I was just kidding of course...and there the Bunnies are!!!  Hehe...sweet...don't let you wife see that.  :200-

Sorry...no bunny machines at the moment...I think I have a Cash Wheel sitting around here somewhere...any graphics for that one?

Wow Anthony, that is sweet.  Is it self contained or is there something else driving it?

Some of that stuff I would like to "Drive"------- :97- :208- :96- :5-.  B.  Thanks for the pic's Anthony.  I will let you answer and reveal your secrets--- :25- :244-.

Since we bought 200+ slots its hard to pick best one  but some of those that weren,t alot of fun  now are due to the great deals we got here on some great kits for I GAMES , Also  the help we got from a few  members here , I have learned alot here , also have learned not to trust  casinos selling complete asis slots
Happy New Year

Jeff, It has a couple power supplies and a separate controller board that runs (avi) files.

Cool, I have to get me one of those. :3- :3-

Hmm, I need a source for those also... :187-

Signs,Signs eveywhere there's Signs

Do This Do That

Long haired hippy freaks need not apply

Great pictures Ron. :3- :3-  What I want to know is: what is it that you had to cover up with "ceiling trees" in that doorway to the right in the second set of pictures, and just generally to the right in the first set of pictures?  :109-  :208- :208- :208-


In addition to the large sign, which is running some great animations, I like that giant $100 Caesar's Palace chip and Santa dealing at the miniature blackjack table. :71- :89-

:31-

That's cool!

You guys are teasing the heck out of us.....where do we buy signs like that?  Spill the beans......... :8- :8-

I know what you mean...All the work it's taking me to run a stupid animation sign and
these guys are running these PGI signs like they were a dime a dozen.. :8- :37-

Despite efforts by Mr. Tacman and Mr. Railroad, I was able to obtain a few signs from their dumpsters. Stat, the ceiling tiles that fell on to the wall are merely covering up some defects in the drywall.

I think queries to Mr. Railroad and Mr. Tacman would yield instructions on how to obtain a PAL sign. Maybe they could advise you on which dumpters to dive in.

 :200- Ron, if I had all your signs,they would look at my electric bill and think I was growing something  :81- in the basement  :5-

Now Anthony, From what I am hearing you and Tacman have enough stuff in your gamerooms that each of you have your own power stations

I was a good boy in 2009, kept the power bill under $350/Mo. here....
I don't know why the bill is addressed to "Honey" however.......

Kirk,its a trade off on the colder days. Tell your wife they help to heat the house and hope she doesnt remember that in august  :30-

My electric bill is surprising low. I have 4 slots, 8 neons, lots of pot lights, 2 refrigerators, a giant chest freezer of 1968 vintage a 1/2 sized bar fridge and a second chest freezer coverted to a kegerator. Never been over $230.00 ......

You know what eats a lot of electricity - things that are supposed to be OFF.  I started using power strips and turning things off when I'm not using them - like cell chargers, tv etc.  and my electric bill is always around $120 a month.    A savings of $60 a month. 

And have central AC - 4 refrigerators (two full, two wine)


What I like to do is look at the meter before I leave and see how fast it's spinning.  I'm able to get it to a slow crawl. 

Thats called "Phantom" loading. I know I have a ton of it here. I have a lot of stuff that must stay up and running. There are cameras,CPU to record this as well as receivers,CPUs to handle radio traffic.There are Flat panel TV's all over the house and audio equipment remote controlled, so they are alive 24/7.
Most of the lighting in the house is LED, with the rest being CFL.This helped a lot.
It all boils down to "Creature Comfort". The gas bill last month was $95. Thats OK...I will gladly pay that to be comfortable (house at 72).I *could* save more money by sitting in the corner with one light on, watching a 9" B&W TV, wrapped in a blanket....but thats not * Living * now is it?

Kirk  :)

Agreed -

I wish my bill was 95.   My gas bill was $220.  So far with 50 mph wind I'm looking at 400 or 500 for next month.

Very cold here in sw va also we left nj to get away from cold winters n  high taxes

Yeah, what really sucks about those devices is that either the settings aren't saved when it's powered off (like cable boxes that lose all their programming) or the only reason they draw that power is so the remotes will work. At least my old plasma had a button on the front that enabled me to turn it competely off, my new one doesn't even have the option. :81-

I'm pretty lucky - I have an olevia tv and Fios - they retain their settings when I unplug them.   

Fios? Is that TV or broadband?

The new TV remembers the settings, I just have no way to completely power it off conveniently. And I no longer have a cable box, thank God for Tivo!!!!

I went go pull the plug out of my LCD 55" Vizio...
the settings I had in it (rock audio, sports lighting,etc...)
remained the same after I plugged it back in and turned it on!
