Re: Rollite Products Ltd.

Hi
It is indeed the same machine and could be the only one, but who knows?
Please see the Rollite plate on the back of the machine.
Please call if you wish and I can tell what I've done and the test run today. Now working.

Re: Rollite Products Ltd.

I had a look but the auction it might have been in does have a listing as it could be the general Monday sale. Only main auctions have a results page. Shame, as it sounds like the same machine, but needed a lot of electrical work.

Re: Rollite Products Ltd.

Do you have the details of the auction please? If so, I can compare them to see if they are same one or in fact two different machi...

Re: Rollite Products Ltd.

Yes, that's right. The gun moves when the coin is put in and the motor moves it on a cam and, when you think it's lined up with a target, press the button. The motor stops. If you're lined up (like Cromptons shooter) your target falls back and a light flashes and a soleniod hits a metal sheet. Hopef...

Re: Rollite Products Ltd.

No, it never had a joy stick. It only has a button to fire. The wiring confirms it.

Re: Rollite Products Ltd.

Please see the photo of this Rollite Invasion machine I have just started on in the workshop. It's a tank shooting game. Has anybody seen one or know of another?

Michael Jordan

I wonder does any body really know what happened to Michael Jordan's collection of machines or where the large machines ended up?
Any ideas please.

Re: Paul Mitchell collection Essex

Hi
Paul is having an open day Easter Sunday (could change) but you have to book through Collector Connector so he knows who is who and where you come from, which is fair enough, as it's his private collection and home.

It is a very good collection and well worth going to see.
