    Default Quality PACHI hunting

    Well this has been a long road trip with alot of different stories. Needless to say I only ended up with one machine. Some time you cannot win.

    That being said I have posted alot of road pictures and will later post better ones in my album. And now for my find
    .

    A Sammy Arrangeball

    You will note that it has a few differences from some of the other Arepachi. Instead of micro switches it has leaf switches and lights like a pinball that twist in with pegs on the outside. The machine also has the piece of plastic that says arrangeball and the jackpot numbers. That piece of thin plastic is double stick taped to the first piece of glass.

    I have taken pictures of some of the japenese writing on the inside. The machine I think is one of the oldest arrangeballs I have seen pictures of??
    Took it over to Mopars and we cleanned it up and I am glad to report it works better than I thought it would. Probably needs a little tune up on a couple of jackpots but other wise I am extremely pleased. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

    Nice find and very interesting playfield design on that one!! Nice to see the variety in the arrange ball machines. The innards of that one are very similar to my Sammy, just a few differences. Have y'all figured out the game play yet? Any differences as compared to other Sammy's with the 4X4 matrix?
