    Default Vintage Takao

    Anyone familiar with vintage pachinkos manufactured by Takao? Making arrangements to see one this weekend. Seller won't email pics but not too far away so planning to make the drive (what we do for a pachinko fix!)

    personally I haven't even heard of that brand. But please take some pictures of it and post them up here. I am interested in what it looks like.

    I found this link to a vintage Takao Pachi. They existed, but they obviously were not a mainstream brand like Nishijin, Mizuho and the like.
