Saw this machine yesterday while clubbing. I think it is made by voodoo so decided to not touch it! lol

I noticed that it was a complete cloning attempt of a red gaming m/c! Why are different fruit manufactures copying reds? Has anyone else seen this? Just like tresure hunt by global!

Imitation is the best form of flattery!

I'd say it's because Red are rising to the top of the market fast, and others are jumping on the bandwagon...

PS - never ever seen a Voodoo machine, anyone got any Website / piccies?

Just looks like a hybrid/straight clone of Treasure Hunt to me. Could be a good one, and these voodoo ones like to streak! Had a Cash Blast go well over a ton before!

Do you think Red would be entitled to be a bit narked by the fact that their format has been so mercilessly ripped off? Or is it possible that Global/Voodoo have paid them for the privelage?

For some reason I always remember seeing some sort of 'patent' notice for Fruit Steps on older Red's (aftershock & others), could this be why other successful Red formats like DNA, X Rated etc haven't been subjected to cross-company cloning?
