I am hoping someone can help me. I have a Red White & Blue 3-coin IGT slot machine. The MFG date is 03/86. I was wondering if this could be correct. I read somewhere that the 1st RWB machine was rolled out in 1991. On that same note, what was the manufacturing time table for an "S" machine and a "S+" machine. |

Post a picture of inside and outside of your machine. 1986 might be a dreaded "M" |

I don't know when the S slot was first manufactured, but I have a Fancy Fruit M Slot that was made in 11/86, so for a period of time IGT was making both the M and S slots. I think the S+ came in 88 or 89. |

Looking closer it was made in 8/86 model 5136-C. The speaker was really loud, so I muffled it for now with a wash cloth & duck tape. I have a 1994 S+ Sizzling 7 and a 1990 S+ Double Diamond. The boards on those two are easy to remove and the chips say "S plus". The board on the RW&B is not easily removed (not without some disassembly). So I am not sure what this machine is. Why do you say "Dreaded M"? I am not that familiar with them. The machine works just fine. It was an impulse buy this week, and the guy didn't know much about the machine either. We settled on $650. I thought that wasn't too bad. My father-in-law purchased the Double Diamond in 1989 for $1900 and my wife purchased the Sizzling 7 in 2002 for $1000. Further research tells me I could have traveled down to Ohio and picked up a machine for $600. Oh well, live & learn. |

Tilt, your 2 coin RW&B looks great. I have been trying to find a 2 coin like that for years, but here in Michigan, they are hard to come by. I never gambled until I met my wife, and shortly after we were married we went to Vegas, and on the first night I hit Red White & Blue sevens on a 2 coin machine. Been hooked ever since and been looking for that exact machine. Good to know they are still out there. |
