What to photograph
On HEIWA/Olympia machines, record which brand appears on the exact cabinet and internal labels rather than collapsing everything into one seller category. Photograph model text, rear boards and any licensed-theme markings as separate evidence.
Identification checks
- Look for HEIWA or Olympia branding on the machine and labels.
- Record the title, cabinet and board identifiers.
- Character merchandise may help identify a theme but not the exact machine variant.
Buying and restoration context
When buying a later HEIWA/Olympia machine, condition of the electronics and themed decorative assemblies can drive ownership difficulty. Favor listings with a demonstrated startup, clear rear photos and documented home-use power setup.

Electrical safety: Never assume voltage or wiring from the brand name. Verify the machine’s labels and use a qualified technician for modifications, damaged wiring or uncertain power conversion.
