    Actually, nothing like an Arepachi.

    This is Fever Queen JX (or a very similar variant) which is a straight drum digital pachinko (or deji-pachi) machine from Sankyo, about 1997.

    Thus the word, "Like" in the title! I'm not an expert, but it does remind of something other than a pachinko. Thanks for your clarification.

    I'm not trying to be argumentative Bill - I genuinely want to know this : why/how does it remind you of something other than a pachinko? I can't see it.

    We're cool!! It just had that more than a pachinko look to it, that's the only thing I can say. Hey, the title got you to look at it right?

    I bought that listed machine. Fever Queen JX huh? nice I was wondering. The thing is beat up, simply looks as if someone ran rusty/bad PB's through it. The first reel seems to have fallen of track or something and drags while the others move. I am curious as to how to go about removing the reel box. Amazingly UP didn't break the glass. Ither that or the thousands of shipping peanuts (Ghost droppings) poured into the box. You could see the box was ROUGH but for the most part damage free.
    Shipped at least 1200 PB's with it, about 30 unusable. The gold/chrome plating has simply been eaten off in high traffic areas (minor though). Sad cause in some spots its pitted as well (like rust hit it!! Blah!) No worries though, she will be taken the utmost care of. Already shinin' her up. Before pics shot!
