    Default Sanyo Comet II 239-4

    Hello,

    IMG_20140305_212145_457.jpgIMG_20140305_212204_629.jpgIMG_20140305_212316_295.jpgIMG_20140305_212328_050.jpgIMG_20140305_212334_318.jpgIMG_20140305_212344_403.jpgIMG_20140305_212356_304.jpg

    I acquired this and am trying to find out more info about it. So far I have been able to determine the following:

    Sanyo Comet II

    239-4 (Appears to be 1960s-1970s)
    Pachinko Machine Expiration Dates | Vintage Pachinko Information

    Not sure what the four graphics are on the board? Cavemen?

    Manual for the Comet II
    http://www.pachinkorestorations.com/...Comet%20II.pdf

    I don't have the key or the original manual for it.

    What other information can anyone share with me about this machine?

    Thanks
    -Noah

    It's a Sanyo. So I suspect they are sea creatures. Crabs and such like. It does look like a crab waving his claws while hoarding pachi balls. Sanyo loves their sea themed machines

    Hello


    Welcome to PachiTalk!!

    Looks like you have already found a lot of information




    Not sure what the 4 graphics on the background are?

    Could be shells or something totally unrelated, as it's often the case that the background graphics seem to have no relation whatsoever to the centre piece they are using (my own Comet II has a space apollo theme centre, but the background graphics are stylised birds)

    Other members may know, in the meantime Welcome to PachiTalk!!

    Commonly the Comet II model has a sticky see saw...

    Not too hard to fix...

    What you have there is a 1975 Sanyo Comet II (Crab).

    Also just curious what part of CA are you in?

    If you have any other questions just ask And once again Welcome to PT.

    Hello,

    I'm in Bakersfield. I also found the manual and balls which go with this machine.

    I see the listing on eBay. Looks good. I'm sure you will do well on the machine.

    Question the eBay shipping cost though. It seems to not be enough. Maybe you are looking at it differently, which is fine.


    Best wishes !
