Lucky ladders
Lucky ladders
seen 3 "lucky ladders" today by barcrest £35 new machine, which is a complete clone of invincible - they have obviously given up trying to make up their own machines - same red profile, if its reds its there for streak etc. Had a couple of £70 tops, one did £35 then £70, same old like invincible - one thing to note though is that the mystery win is good on it, unlike on reds it often goes quite high
tbh I'd prefer crest to go down that route than continue making awful machines like open ur box!!!

Nice one! I wouldn't be surprised if Red 'become the main company' as opposed to Barcrest - they obviously produce the most popular machines (especially over the last couple of years).
Essentially, Barcrest Group are now Red and Extreme. The others are not really worth bothering with!
Ooh, and look forward to seeing one of these!

Are you privvy to insider knowledge then mate? 
I'm not writing them off totally yet, it just seems that their subsidary companies seem to be doing so much better than the 'flagship' name. Let's see what their next release is all about...
They've definitely had some Gems in the past - the Blue / Red trail games were great. Revolution and clones were also very good (at the time!) Throw a Wobbler has been by far their best recent delivery...
