Kyoraku Industrial Corporation is famous in Japan for their Pachinko Game Machines. It so happens that they have acquired license to manufacture an Electronic Pachinko Machine based on the Transformers Live Action Movies.
Their website has has been updated with some information about the product. Since the site is unavailable outside Japan, we took the liberty of taking screenshots of the site. Check ’em out, after the jump.
The game will make its debut today at the Prism Hall, Tokyo Dome City.

That's fairly common, both in Pachinko in Japan and in slots in the US and Europe. When we made our first The Hangover machine, it was timed to come out when the Hangover 2 hit theaters. It takes that long to secure the license and to make the machine. It'd be nice if a studio wanted to plan ahead and get a product to market when the movie drops, like they do with toys, but that never happens.
I love me some pachinko, and it's too bad that the promo video and images show almost nothing of the game. It kinda looks like there's some neat stuff going on in the custom cabinet. Pachinko, much like slots, has really gone heavily towards the licensed properties in recent years, so TF is an easy fit. Wish I could play it, but pachinko's rubber-banding is very illegal in the US. I'll have to wait until I go back to Japan.

Clearly this machine is outdated 'cause it has characters from the first 2 movies including ROTF Megatron.
