Vintage Deluxe Pachinko Machine Tulip

I saw this on ebay yesterday. It got me really interested to try to figure out what brand it is. So I emailed the seller and I should have some pictures that may help by tomorrow. (I can already see one member who is bidding on this machine.)

It looks like a three star to me, I have one that has the same tray and bits on the front, game held it frame the same way, parts on back are metal but not the same yet the pictures I saw of another three star had the exact same back as that.

Well I got the pictures I asked for. I attached them below. I still can't make out a definate brand but these pictures probably help determine that. (Plus the seller is a really nice person to work with.)

Sorry the pictures are a little small. They are big and of pretty high quality. But the website made me reduce the size of them. (plus it reduces the overall size of the picture.)

Here is one picture that I split in 2 so you can see some of the detail.

I asked for a pic of the jackpot from the rear. Looks like something is missing.

KURAGE are the only words on that pass through. Not sure if thats the name of the tulip or the machine.

can be difficult to nail down the manufacturer based on parts such as tulips, etc. i've seen the same exact parts on multiple makers of machines before which suggests a parts company that supplies various manufacturers
