    Talk to Arby about that one. He's got that, the flag and the book.

    This game features the artwork of Masami Esaka of Team Esaka. Quite an accomplished airbrush artist and character designer.

    He's fairly well known for this 'Kemono' style art, where animals are given human style features and placed in human settings, he did quire a few character designs similar to this for CoMixWave.

    His official website is at http://esaka-net.com/ and if you enter the site, you can see examples of the artwork created for this pachinko under the gallery tab on the Esaka side (click pachinko, then E3), and other artwork of a similar style under the Eshimasa side gallery tab (click on 'woman').

    If you like his style, there's a lot more artwork on the team-esaka website...
    http://eshimasa.team-esaka.com/index.html

    Personally I'm really tempted by this machine. It's been on my list of ones to look out for since I looked up the details after hearing that Arby had got one. It's really taking quite a bit of self-control not to click on 'buy it now', but alas I've got quite a few big bills to pay this month, so need to keep a tight hold of the purse strings.

    Well after seeing this machine relisted a couple of times without any interest, I gave in and contacted the seller to arrange to give it a loving home.

    I picked it up on the way home from the UKPinball show, and now just need to find the time to set it up and see if it plays as good as it looks.

    Glad someone gave it a good home

    Looked really interesting, I really like the colour Case / Cell combination

    but was too far for me to collect...
