    Default Which one to get

    Hi! I have the opportunity to pick one of two machines and I'm unsure which to go with, I like both designs, but thought it'd be fun to get some thoughts!

    On one hand I feel like there's a story to the Nishijin centerpiece, but haven't been able to find it. While on the other, I don't have a Sanyo machine yet.

    If I rememeber right. The Nishijin is about Ishikawa Goemon. A folklaw legend. A bit like Robin Hood

    FWIW, my favorite answer to such "which one" questions is usually YES . . . (why have one or the other when you can have *both* ??!!)

    Assuming all things are there and not broken,

    the Sanyo looks to possibly be a Comet II machine.. these can be a pin to get and keep working.. but it looks clean..

    the second needs nothing said about the back mech.. it will work for years no problems.. but the front has a bit of water stains..

    get them both

    Both are all there actually, nice shape just filthy. I would love to get both but I was offered to pick one for free and can't argue with free.

    If you’ve been offered one for free — without presenting the rear mechanics for inspection — I’d ask the chance to run a few balls through the Sanyo.
