This machine seems based on a 1970s candystore game:
1977 ブラックパンサー (Black panther) by ウコー (Uko) |
This modern version seems to be made by the same company that produced コロリンボール (Kororin Ball). The handles appear to be identically machined:
I have no actual date references for this game, but there is circumstantial evidence to believe that this and Kororin Ball were released around the same time. It is only via this circumstantial evidence, and the same control mechanisms used, that I presume this machine was also made by 安宅商会 (Ataka Shokai).
高額落札された駄菓子屋ゲーム(エレメカ)まとめ 2012 (archive) this blog post from 2012 has a screen shot of this machine at auction, so it was definitely released by 2012. |

Compare the above to the center of Black Panther, the game from 1977 that it is based on:
