    Default leonnyan is new!

    Hello,

    (wish I knew how to remove the border)

    I spent a long time in Japan where I learned to enjoy pachinko, though I never thought about owning a machine. Fast forward to a month ago, and there on the street was a machine available for free to haul away - the full sized door it was mounted in included.

    So away it went.

    I now own a Sanyo Comet-II. I have recently purchased some balls, though need some advice as it didn't work immediately.

    I look forward to learning and enjoying this machine.

    --Leon

    Welcome to Pachitalk!

    Thank you. I posted a few photos above, and will list out my questions in a help forum once I figure out the right ones.

    We have a Forum area especially dedicated to Vintages and you will find lots of interesting information and 'how they work' videos amongst the 'sticky' threads, here is the link
    Vintage Pachinko

    It would also be a great place for you to start a thread about your own particular pachinko, with any questions, queries or general observations you may wish to make

    Hey !! Welcome !! Looks like a nice looking machine,

    How many balls did you buy ? You would need at least a few hundred balls I would say, based on my vintage pachis .

    Take pics. of the back so we can see if you're missing anything important, or you have any ball jams...

    Good luck !! You've come to the right place !!

    Thank you. I have more photos. I'll post them this evening (PST) when I'm home along with my first questions. I purchased 500 balls which arrived yesterday and drove me to my first post here.

    to make sure the balls are clean and free of light rust or dirt, you can roll about a hundred at a time back and forth in a clean work sock

    make sure you hang on to both ends and that the sock doesn't have a hole in it
