For starters...it's a diamond plate. That's a plus. They didn't make many of them.

Look for cabinet fade in the word GAMBLER.

Check the red ramp for breakage. Those ramps are VERY hard to come by.

Translites are hard to find as well.

I love my Riverboat. It won't be going anywhere. It really is an under-rated game, IMO.

While you're at it, I'd try to snag his Fire as well. Looks like the LE version.

Here is a mod I made for my RG

Each card on the topper lights up when the same card lights on the playfield.

Nice looking RG

I really like mine. It's an under-rated game.

I really like the artwork...playfileld, backglass, and cabinet all look great.

And the best part...it's really fun to play.

I put Red frosted LEDs under the rig red ramp.

It really brings out the color in the ramp.

I've never has to lube a lift ramp or drop targets on any of my pins.

They've been working fine for years.

Yes

Send those decals back...

I've bought 2 of those insert decal sets from them. The 1st time, they were clear....I went ahead and installed them, (didn't know better).

The second time, they came in w/ the proper artwork.

My Riverboat didn't have the diamond plate, but I did the same thing you're doing. I removed all of the insert artwork, polished the inserts, installed decals, then installed a full PF mylar. The PF came out looking like a new PF.

Contact Classic arcade, tell them you want the proper insert decal set...they have them.

That's a shame they didn't do the right thing by providing the proper decals.

They'll never get my money again.

I made this topper for my Riverboat back in 2014. Each of the cards on the the topper are tied into the playing cards on the playfield.
