Just an update on this machine I am in the process of coding new question disks for this(I have been working on it for months) breaking down the encrypted questions and file structures and compiling new questions. An update soon.

ARRIVED! This one is the Super 500. It only has the 5p play, no 2p game, but the jackpot is variable. It changes between £10, £15, or £25 seemingly at random. It doesn't change every play. It SEEMS to dwell on an amount until a WIN is registered, then re-selects from the three values. I'll get a picture of the device which does this, as soon as I've got the back open...

Enjoy. <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/vHaCm64BQDo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> or if that doesn't work

Hi All. Looking forward to getting to know you and learning lots. I'm a huge fan of the MPU3 Clubbers!

Well had a few of these in lately and although I decided quite a few years ago not to do them as someone else had picked up the baton but I was made an offer I couldn't refuse (Godfather LOL) Anyway I didn't have a proper rig to test them with so I'm half way constructing one which is now functional but not complete. More of this in later tales. So one chassis I looked at today was listed as dead, which it was. Just the two 12v led's and one of the relays appeared live. On opening up it had the dreaded battery backed RAM board in it!! Without this board most chassis I've seen are in very good nick but this one, although not too bad, had definitely suffered the green plague. Here's a pic of the RAM board and It may not be salvageable especially if I can't get the old components off of it! The rot has travelled right up the wire and ate into the connector at the far end. It's also got into some of the IC sockets on the main connecting board although hopefully not badly. I did make some of these daughter boards a few years back but I don't know if I've still got them. That could save a lot of hard work. Further investigations showed no 5v coming out the regulator so more faulting tomorrow to see what is going on.

Another picture from back in the day, looks like an episode of Sweeny. The Customer Service crew! Left to right Dave Mead, Russel Grimble, Huw Thomas, yours truly, Steve Bryant and Martin Stork. My guess 1980 ?, Just had the Fiat twin cam HTG79W. HTG97W DOH!

I can't imagine why the management would do that.
