    Default De-Converted my Pachislo...

    When I got it Friday it was a "Texas Hold-em" which was a custom, coverted from what was originally a "Final Juggler". So after a little tinkering, I remove the stickers that were applied the upper and belly glass as you can see in the pictures below and I really like the original better! Nice gold trim with the payouts on top.

    I've already been in touch with the gentleman who sold me the machine and he already sent the bulbs to me and they are in the mail (confirmed). I can't say enough about how helpful he's been.

    A Merry Christmas to everyone at Pachi-Talk!

    Yes, so much better to be original, the way it was intended. Nice they just covered the old stuff instead of destroying it.

    I am one of the few around here that doesn't mind a well-done custom machine...but I am SO glad that you took that machine back to it's original state. It looks awesome!

    Excellent
    I think that these sellers/importers or whatever they are, sometimes think the machines will sell better with Americanized graphics on them.
    But that is not always the case.

    I don't mind a well done custom machine as long as that is the way it is sold. I am going to be doing a custom Coke machine for my wife when I get time & the right macine. I would also like to do a custom Winnie the Pooh one.
    Custom machine have their place as long as the one selling the machine is truthful about it.

    Well atleast now you know why there was no bulbs in the machine. It would look real stupid with the bulb light and being able to see the normal glass under the decals. Well I am glad that he is sending you the bulbs.

    Welcome...
    Merry Christmas
