This use to be my old TOTAN and it is very nice but it is not home use only or single owner only. It use to belong to an operator out in North Dakota (I removed the sticker on the front so you will notice a little bit of fade there) but had issues so it was stored for many years. My friend bought the machine from the operator "as is" and met him at expo in 2008 to do the transaction. He brought a few parts with him after asking the operator a few questions and within an hour he had the game up and running in under an hour. He then sold the machine in 2011 to another friend because he replaced it with a pristine documented HUO TOTAN from a client of his.

I ended up getting it in July 2012 and sold it to Chris in October 2015. I replaced the stock trim with brass plated trim from the late and great Mike Chestnut, made that custom snake/sword topper interactive topper along with the tresure chest mod. You can see both DIY threads here:

The saucer kickout on the left and magnet by the genie was touched up by my friend DRANO when I first got the machine. He did an excellent job and that is the reason why it looks so good and really pops out in the pics (not because it is home use only lol). It been spot cleared and covered in mylar to protect the touch up. That playfield is pretty nice for an original and has very little insert ghosting.

I also replaced the apron with a reproduction one made by another pinsider a few years ago and had the wire forms and sword by the shooter lane re-plated by a local place in May 2014 too. It's truly a nice looking and playing example. I just don't want someone to be misled by this ad or disappointed after they buy it.
