    Default Volume controls from Gaku

    I would just like to say that Gaku is quick with the shipping. I orderd volume controls from him on late Monday night, and received them today. Seems pretty fast from Texas to Pittsbugh, PA. I emailed him to thank him, and also asked when the Pachinkos will be for sale. I'm looking to get either a StarWars or a Rocky the movie within the next two months. Anybody heard anything about when he will start selling Pachinkos

    Custom Star Wars R2D2 Edition

    It's been over a year now since he told me he was going into Pachinkoland. Someone here said he saw the new prototypes in his warehouse but no description.
    I am also very anxious to hear what he is going to be offering as the all in one concept that they were maybe going to do that was mentioned before sounded very interesting.....

    The pachinkos will be around 1500. They will come with a cabinet case and automatic ball loader. At this time he will only be selling them with all the extras.

    When I went there a few weeks ago to pickup the pachislo machines I got to play a few of the pachinko machines in the cabinets he will be offering. Everything is all internal on the spiderman machine, you never touch the balls at all, they are in a nice black cabinets with etched spiderman logo on the top. Over the logo is 4 digital led counters to let you know you spending and winnings (since its all internal) and a power switch and volume controls. Gaku's employee (Gaku was not there that day) also told me that this was the only way they would be selling them but never mentioned a price. In the warehouse he has a few pallots of pachinko machines stacked behind some pachislo machines. In the showroom he had the spiderman, star blazers, and popeye machines.

    I was at Big Bear last week and he had the Star Blazers and Popeye on display. Richey, Gaku's employee said the SB was $600 and the Spidey was $1500. When I talked to Gaku a few months ago, he mentioned that he didn't think pachinko was very fun as is. That's why he's spent so much time (about 3 months) developing the "all enclosed" system with counters. He didn't say specifically, but I would guess that he will only sell the finished systems. By the way, they look really nice. Cabinets finished with formica, etched control labels, and a big base for weight balance.
