Makita Vintage Pachinko Machine with balls - $60 MESA, AZ

[JACKSJE4]

A really interesting machine and play field arrangement. I don't believe I have ever seen this brand of machine before.

This is a Pachinko machine that was made in Japan. It is beautiful and does not have any cracks or chips in the plastic covering or parts. It comes with 200 of the metal balls.

Odd. Makita like the drill? Guess so as it is a japanese company and the name looks exactly like their logo.

Well, Sanyo made Pachinkos too.

Well, Sanyo made Pachinkos too.

So did Panasonic. Well actually National at the time.

It seems almost every japanese company that delt with electronics made a pachinko.

If I was down their I would of least went and checked it out. Interesting.

I like it

that's a really great looking pachinko, liking the cell design, unusual manufacturer



I'm not convinced that name says Makita though?

surely if the 2nd letter is the 'a' then the end letter doesn't look right as an 'a'?

and could the 'k' actually be an 'r' followed by 'u' like in Maruto, Marito, or Makutu or something??

to me it reads as 'M A R U T O' but doesn't look like the usual Maruto marking??

It looks like Maruto to me too.. I think it says it up by the 15 too..

Now looking at it again it is a Maruto. I can read it right above the ashtray.
