Very Colorful 1977 Vintage Maruto Pachinko Machine

Description

This Very Colorful 1977 Vintage Maruto Pachinko Machine
is in good condition considering it is 44years old and had a year of probably heavy use in a pachinko parlor in Japan. All of the plastics and exposed metal are in good shape and show minimal exposure to moisture. There is some wear which is typical for an arcade/gambling machine of this age. This machine was well cared for. The play field is in good condition, there are no watermarks on the play field. The play field is Aqua, with Orange, Red and Green colored Abstract shapes. The play field also features 2 Tulips which open and close when a ball enters them which makes for lots of jackpots and fun play(check out the video clip).The upper center attraction is a Colorful  collection feature which funnels a ball into the lower center feature which in turn will then open closed tulips. The lower half of the front of the machine has Red, Cream, Orange, Aluminum and Chrome colored features which add to the overall look (the original ashtray on the lower left of the machine is missing). The incandescent light in the upper right hand corner is original, and bright green LEDs have been added in the upper right corner and behind the birds eye in the upper left corner( check out the video). All of the mechanical parts and lights work(these machines are gravity feed and require power only for the lights, it has been rewired for 2 9v batteries.) I am including 300 original pachinko balls. Typically these machines are found in poor condition requiring lots of cleaning and replacement of parts and most come with no balls. This complete, fun and ready to play piece of Japanese Gambling history would make a perfect addition to any Game room or Man cave! Checkout the YouTube clip of the machine being played:
