I've just taken delivery of a Tooty Fruity Gold Award.

Hopefully I'll be able to utilize your pdf file.

Much appreciated.

I have just aquired a Cromptons Tooty Fruity Gold Award 2p machine. Does anybody know anybody who can supply spare parts including relays for this machine? also the cabinet sides and base are in poor condition so any advice on repair and materials would really help.

Tooty Fruity machines are nice games to play. The drawback with these are the cabinets, and usually people always move them by one person holding and lifting the machine by the light box at the top and the other person lifting the bottom end of the machine. These are such heavy machines it invariably breaks off the top box. Also the bases get damp and collapse on them, so before you know it they just fall apart. Vintage veneered chipboard doesn't age well.
If the cabinet is really bad I'd consider making a nice new strong plywood one.

I know a lot of you would spit on this kind of stuff, but it will sadly be the future of collecting in the future and the resources would be good to see and look back on if you was about.

Anyway, let me know what you think of the files. I scanned them in at 300dpi, so should be good quality.

Many thanks for letting me post this up here.

Thanks for making the effort to post Rich, interesting for those outside of operating to see a price list too.
Most modern amusement arcade machines depreciate faster than anything else you can think of, to the point that there are several dealers selling to the public that collect their machines from the Trade free of charge to take away quantity and clear storage space.

Thanks for doing this!

Page 26 has a machine "Animal Magic" that is a ticket version of Tooty Fruity, and also mentions that Tooty Fruity is available as a "cash version".

I've seen 1970s Cromptons Tooty Fruity machines on this site, but does anyone know for how long they made them? Obviously into the '90s if the have a CD sound package!

CDs came out much earlier than the 90s, I remember buying my first CD around 1983/84
