Name: Jumbo - ジャンボ
Year: 1973
Company: 日本自動販売機 (Nihon Jidô Hanbaiki — Nihon Jihan) & 昭和遊園機械 (Showa Yuen Kikai)
Jumbo is a wonderfully oversized pachinko cabinet surrounded by a western shootout theme. I like it for the nixie tube scoring in the center.
While this flyer is small because I only could get this thumbnail image, it does show us that it was distributed under the brand name Nihon Jihan, and has the type approval number 91-8108.
If we look up type approval number 91-8108 we see it was registered by 昭和遊園機械 (Showa Yuen Kikai) in 1972.
We do not know if it was actually released in 1972 though. In fact, Jumbo does not appear in any of the annual machine catalogs. but we do know it exists in 1973 because it appears in the movie 愛欲の罠 / Aiyoku no wana aka Trapped in Lust (1973).
