Lord of the Rings Sankyo ordered :

[Bencrest]

Me again,

Have now decided to complement my Neo Pharaoh Zetz pachislo with a Lord of the Rings pachinko, by Sankyo.

I ordered it from the same chap I got my pachislo machine from, a UK seller called 777heaven (who is active on here), and IMHO the price of £179.99 inc postage, balls, e.t.c. is more than fair for what looks like a decent licensed machine

Anyone got one of these? Anything I should look out for?

Is it going to weigh less or more than my pachislo, and if someone has a similar machine and a tape measure, I'd love to know some dimensions.

Intending to have it sat on the side in my bedroom... how much noise will one of these produce? Does it come with a volume control as standard?

Cheers all

[Chris]

Not sure if it comes with volume control as standard but Steve will usually fit them FOC if you ask him.

[Bencrest]

Yeah, pretty sure he will do, offered to add one to Zetz but it came with one as standard

[Sid]

Pachinko Noisy?? never!!

11mm steel balls being ejected on to a playing surface at about 1 per second. add pay out add spent balls...

hehehehe You'll have fun..

Congrats on your new purchase and enjoy.. I hope it gets to you quick and in one piece!..

Remember the little button on the shooter knob. You can adjust the number you shoot. I usually play with a six ball rotation. It does help to kee the constant noise down.

About.....81cm high, 52cm wide and between 20 and 25cm deep depending on what thing sticking out the front to what thing sticking out the back you measure!

And lighter, I think.

[drcrippen324]

it be about 30 kilose they not light things especialy when you got 300 balls in the hopper and a transformer in the back.....

I was expecting it next Tuesday but got home and it was in my hallway :S

Looks very nice, although I have to attach some included wooden feet to it I guess... could be a laugh

[Bencrest]

Got my wooden feet attached, got it into my bedroom, fairly close to my PC (well, it seems like a lowish emission PC, a Shuttle XPC, but I may well move it in the near future).

LOVE the machine. I thought it was pointless until I realised you do win some balls for getting a ball into the central 'tulip'. Didn't pick that up until I filled the hopper at the back

Heres a quick picture of it at the minute, I will take some better pics tomorrow and will try and add to the Museum bit for it if possible.
