    Default I think I screwed up.

    I picked up a virgin machine (tiger mask). It was still 24v. so I clipped the cable like I always do and connected a new transformer to the machine. plugged it in and nothing. I noticed that there was a inline fuse (240v 10amp) it was blown. as I didn't have another fuse I bypassed the fuse completely. This time when I plugged in the machine. I heard a pop and sparks shot out of the main board. Did I kill it?

    quite possible damage to the machines PSU. the main question would be why.
    what tranformer did you use, was it wired properly. are there any cables damaged in transit.

    I checked. no sign of damage. the transformer powered my "New Sea Story" and "Bunny Girl" machines just fine. I clipped the cord, stripped the wire. twisted together in a cable nut.

    Which Bunny girl

    anyhow, then there is a chance the machine was faulty before you plugged it in.
    Did you see it working, did you pick it up or was it delivered.
    As you said it had its original 24v plug on it, someone else may have plugged it in to the mains outlet and blown the fuse and damaged the machine , before you even had it.

    Which Tiger mask is it. (what frame is it in) You could try repairing the PSU or sourcing a replacement, maybe from Japan.

    tiger mask is in a purple frame. I picked up 4 machines for $125 total. as far as the bunny girl I am not sure. it has some playing cards on the right hand side of the play field. I think it is CR Bunny Girl XJ2

    See if tiger mask glass fits in Norakuro, and just let tiger mask go, you didn't really pay a lot for them, did you get balls also? your going to need close to 2000 to fill and play games

    the glass wont fit unfortunately. as far as balls go I am hoping to make them cyclic so I won't need as many. on a side note. how do you like your Jurassic Park machine? I want one bad.
