    Default ★Retro Pachinko Machine★ Fuji Shoji Super Rare Showa Era Arranged Ball [Safari]

    I try to stay away from the older machines, but this one looks very nice: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp...on/j1141684525

    1000 Yen starting bid.

    Note: There is one more photo on the site but I can only attach 9 pictures per post.

    The google translated description states:

    This time, we are offering a collection of Showa-era arranged balls, Fuji Shoji's [Safari], released in 1980, which has been professionally washed and fully washed.

    When you think of Fuji Shoji, many people think of Aledin and Excite, but when the company was founded, it was the company that debuted mahjong balls in halls. The era was 1980, when you borrowed three medals for 200 yen and played 16 pachinko balls by hand with one medal, winning three JP medals in four places: one vertical medal, one horizontal medal, and a center square (see image 6). You
    can win up to 10 medals per game, and the sound of the 10 medals being paid out by the electric system is exhilarating, making this Fuji Shoji specialty Aledin ball. The
    gameplay is based on the concept of [playing while thinking], and it is a machine full of a laid-back Showa-era feel.
    This [Safari] was listed in the list of past development machines on the Fuji Shoji website! Winning
    the Ten-Kana and Ten-Yoko is split into left and right, and if it is split to the left, the left tulip opens and lights up 6 or 10, and if it is split to the right, the right tulip opens and lights up 7 or 11. You
    can win 10 medals when the winning number lighting board at the top of the center lights up 6, 10, 7, or 11 (see image 4, Safari Bonus)
    . Winning the [R] pockets on the left and right of the center is a replay ball (re-hit).
    You can win one medal for each winning in the center [L] pocket (see image 5), and two medals for winning twice in one game.
    If you win 10 times, you can get the highest score of 10 coins here... It's possible if you clean it or rub it with a knife, but it's impossible (lol).
    At the time, I was 16 years old and I got cigarettes with this [Safari] and the famous [Chu-Hunter] (sweat).
    A year later, the Arrange Fever machine debuted, and after Shuttle 21, Aladdin and Excite were announced.
    Please add this one to your collection...

    This product has been washed by a professional pachinko cleaning company and is perfect and shiny, and all operations have been confirmed!
    It has a wonderful glossy finish that doesn't look like a 44-year-old game machine. 
    There are no broken wedge balls, and the balls are shot out and the medals are paid out smoothly, but the back of the medal slot was prone to clogging so we fixed it and now it flows smoothly with no problems (see photo 9) (Is there a metal part for carrying medals behind the slot? A part that looks like it will be attached to the back of the table m(__)m Simply

    insert one piece of glass, 50 medals for the arrange ball, door key, and household power and you're ready to play.

    There are no problems with the product, but please note that there are 3Ns: no claims, no returns, and no cancellations.
    After winning the bid, please contact us within 24 hours and make payment within 48 hours.

    If you are a new ID, please let us know your intention to purchase in the question section.
    Sudden silent bids will be deleted as soon as they are discovered.

    Direct collection is also welcome.

    An arrangement box that reeks of the Showa era. Please take your time and have fun playing at your own pace - you'll
    be doing thumb exercises while thinking, so I think it will help prevent dementia (lol)

    Gah...curse me being poor right now...
    Video game store owner, Twitch streamer (watashiwannabe), photographer/videographer, and many other things, trying to prove to myself that even though I have a lot of days behind me, at nearly 40, it's not too late to try to be the best version of myself.

    The 6th bid made things a bit more serious at 33800 yen. Still a good deal I think.
