Hi, I am new on here, being away from the fruit machine seen for a while, mainly being restoring pinball machines. But now i've got the bug again.I'm trying to get hold of some games I use to own and play in the past, looking back why did I ever sell them. Would love to own one of the following again and I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction or give me any info on the following games.
Barcrest grab the bank (smash and grab) version 1.The piggy one!
Barcrest cash counter
Barcrest top take £1.50 JP.
JPM note exchange
All from the 80's
Project 777 heaven think this is 90's
Out of all of them grab the bank and top take are my total favourite games.
Thank you.

Seven Heaven is emulated. Don't think you can use the 'nudge up' trick, though.

nudge up on 7 heaven? not the original then.... hit the six yes, wheel of fortune and later 7 heaven but i can't recall ever nudging up the 4.80 tokens one. slows up between credits when it's about to streak. am i going senile but 2 boxed symbols on these is just 1 normal nudge if held or 3 normal if spin all reels. or could i seriously have not know to what you refer harry?

the newer one with nudge up was called sevens & melons if i recall correctly , but im pretty sure you could do it on hotspots and reflex too

^ and sevens jackpot did it ...amongst others.
holding the boxes was a guarenteed nudge....spinning them for 3 nudges could sometimes result in it giving 2 nudges if it put a token win 'there' in 3 nudges ,or even not nudging at all if it put a jacky there in one.it would only ever do this if it was on fast starts though.

Project Crazy Pays and Rags To Ruins used to love a big hold.

Yup good times on those!!!
To be fair crazy pays on £15 could hold a few times. Love the nudge music on it for some reason.

sure i had 20 something holds once on £6 variants. 10 was extremely common. that was the golden age for fruits in my opinion...

My memory is wrong. it was the later versions than the original £4.80 JP.
