    I'd appreciate help to ID generation of this Nishijin and your opinion whether it's a desirable model. Thanks!

    Looks like a mid 70s Model B. Nice colors and better condition than many. Nice machine. Not particularly rare; I haven’t seen that center feature though. Desirability is kinda subjective so depends!

    I prefer the model A or C; B is just ok… Unless it’s a Powerflash/special electric model of course, I’ll make an exception for a B.

    I picked up the same machine a few days ago. It is a 1976 Nishijin.

    Only reason I got it was because of the center feature. I don't think it's any kind of a desirable machine.

    I'll probably use the center feature in a electronic Model A project, I have planned.

    Model A are good starter machines due to the way the balls recycle. If the chromes good and so is the price. I'd probably get it.
