New Hanemono Pachinko?

[Gadgetguy]

Hello all,

could you please give me names of new(er) Hanemono pachis? I have found info about older ones (2006 and before) on several sites (Gibisans etc.), but nothing for 2007 - 2008.

Where any made in 2007 or 2008? Which ones?

Thanks for any advice,

Miklos

I think this is one: KING CRAB Pachinko Pinball Machine *Limited Time Only* - eBay (item 310095596521 end time Nov-03-08 12:56:02 PST)

I couldn't tell you the year, but based on the cabinet design it looks pretty modern. You can spot a hanemono by a couple of things: the wings, of course (that's what "hane" means), three pockets at the bottom labeled 1 - 2 - 1, and usually a generator in the center that moves the ball into a V pocket for the big payout. The King Crab pachinko looks like it has all of those (and looks pretty cool too). Bonus: Canadian seller.
