And a cool one like I like, probably late '90s?

Oooo maybe I can pick this up for a few bucks and waste a day of my life standing in line at their warehouse to avoid shipping

The possibly late 90s one doesn't seem to have any speakers, which I found odd. Perhaps, it's older than we think?

[cwstnsko]

I have 3 machines that I would guess are about the same age as the "possible late 90's" machine. They all have speakers, but they are all housed in the plastic ball tray area in some way. It looks like there are speaker holes on the underside of the upper ball tray.

Another nice vintage with lots of pockets!

That's another version of this machine

The wings are solenoid controlled. When a ball goes into a certain pocket, it opens others.

Here's a baseball one that looks interesting!

The $250 seems a tad steep for an older model like that.

I love the baseball theme. It's too bad they don't use more pockets to represent base hits and outs. Some LED's could be used to represent the bases and as you land in a double pocket your 2nd base LED lights up then you get a single and your 1st and 3rd LED's light up. When someone is forced home, you would get a spin. It would no longer be just hit a center pocket, it brings other pockets into play increasing the skill factor, adding more of a concept of playing baseball and enhancing the game play overall.

I would love to see pachinko a bit more interactive.

For about $10, it's a plastic toy. This may be some kind of collectors item, and it's worth more, I'm not sure but that would be my top end on it.

Here's a vintage that I thought looked interesting.

It looks like it has 14 pockets and a lot of nails!
