    Default Frank at Akimono.com delivers Tom and Jerry

    Just received the Tom and Jerry machine made by Daiichi from Frank and Akimono.com and it's a truly beautiful machine!
    As usual Franks service was fantastic,communication was top notch,and the machine arrived in perfect condition as well as being packed nicely,
    the volume controls were spliced into the cell instead of the frameand placed in a great spot!

    The machine itself is a sight to behold,very "over the top" design with multiple moving parts as well as a ton of animations (the CG recreations of the original cartoons are astounding!)they really took a lot of time and effort to make them,
    It always seems to always be doing something! (moving parts,showing a clip, reaches,...)
    So far Ive seen clips from several classic cartoons ranging from the earliest ones all the way up to the Chuck Jones stuff,
    Highly entertaining (much more so than I expected)

    If your a fan of Tom and Jerry or wacky cartoony machines, this one is a blast!

    T&J center pocket.jpgT&J Tom close up.jpgT&J title screen.jpgT&J title.jpgT&J jerrysroom.jpgT&J back.jpg
    also, this is the first machine I've seen with warnings,it looks like one is an age restriction and I hope one is for epileptics (the lights strobe frequently)
    can anyone shed light on these?

    T&J warning 1.jpg
    also wonder if they are on the Matrix,or Superman Returns as well

    Thanks again Frank! Looking foward to doing more business with you in the future

    Beautiful machine and vibrant colors.No clue to what the warnings are, maybe no one under 18 no and no tampering or opening and maybe no smoking .

    That is a beautiful machine. I am waiting for my Tom and Jerry pachinko to come from Frank as well. First time I saw this machine I fell in love with it just because of all of the colors.
    I have a Matrix machine and the same warnings are on that machine as well.
    Congratulations on a beauty!

    Don't stop with Tom and Jerry, You will absolutely love The Matrix. THAT IS ONE COOL MACHINE!!! Everytime I play mine, and I play it alot, it always does something new. Just yesterday while I was playing, the machine started going wild. It made a 3D tornado on the screen and the symbols were flying around, the whole machine was flashing profusely and blaring really cool music, then of course it won. I love it!!! For your next machine, get the Matrix. And Frank has got some beautiful machines! You won't be sorry!
