    Default Should I buy this Sankyo? ID Help...

    Hey all,

    Ok, i found this modern Sankyo Locally. They wanted $125 originally, I talked them down to $85. They said that it comes with hundreds of spheres... Is it worth it?

    The pics are attached (I don't have any larger pics at the moment). I haven't been able to ID it just yet. Any Ideas?


    Thanks in advance,

    Matt!

    I don't recognise the cell at the moment, but it is in the Sankyo Victory frame which should date it to between 2003 and 2004

    Is it a sea theme??

    no name given by the sellers or any clue to it's theme??

    Dunno what the cell is but I have the same frame. If it's local and it works. Go for it! I would. But that's just my 2 cents worth

    Hey all,

    I am thinking twice about this... Ya this looks just like my Popeye layout - and only has pins on half the field as well.

    i would almost prefer one from the mid 90's that has a full field of nails along with a video screen...

    I just wish there was more interactivity than the center jackpot hole (unless in fever mode, that is).

    On my Popeye, that's the only hole that makes anything happen...


    Later,

    Matt!

    Good for you, maybe you want to clue anyone else that might be interested in it where they can go?

    And no, not me, already got one.

    I actually think I may have ended up with this very machine... or one almost identical. Are the wood frame/feet like that common for machines that have been sold for home use?

    Either way it's in great shape for being 12 years old... my son bought it for $20 at a local auction.A neighbor had a vintage pachinko machine when I was a kid and I've always loved them. So I'm very happy he did... a cheap way to get a foot in the door.

    Thanks to all you guys and whoever took the time to translate the manual for the Victory frame.. it's answered most of my questions.
