Best pachinko scenes

Hello,

So what are some of the best Lupin III pachinko scenes? I haven't seen a lot and I'm not sure where else to start. XD

That one where Lupin and Pops are battling over their own plushies at a claw machine.
Other than that, I don't have much to say because those machines are like sensory overlord that I don't go out looking for any anime or game exclusive pachinko content.

I've been trying to research more about the pachinko machines just cause there's some interesting stuff there, especially in the newer ones. Like there's two versions of a scene in LUPIN the Third 2000 Carat Tears, where either Jigen or Lupin get shot by the respective lady villain and the other fights the villains off. I prefer the one where Jigen gets hurt cause Lupin getting shot is sadly a bit overdone, but also the fact that you see Lupin get pissed about his friend getting hurt. Also his eyes glow so it's like:

Then I'm singing my praises for World is mine again, cause besides that one backflip Lupin and Zenigata shooting at the bad guy, there's a scene where Zenigata is driving the Fiat with Jigen, Goemon and then Lupin in the backseat, wearing a pair of handcuffs, dangling from his wrist, and I just love the imagery as a LoopZeni shipper

Then Zenigata drives up to hospital to let Lupin go so he can visit one of the patient (I don't know who it is, their face isn't shown and I don't know enough about the plot), Lupin says his thanks and tosses the handcuffs back into the car.

I wanna look more into these machines, but there isn't a lot of written info about them, mainly videos, which as YuStarDino said, can be a bit much visually. I have heard that a bunch of the pachinko stories where adapted into Lupin H chapters, so maybe I can find some scanlations of it.

I agree with both of you, the pachinko machine videos are overwhelming, hence this thread so we can combine our shared experiences.

I've seen a scene where Heiji Zenigata gave Zenigata a scolding, and one where Zenigata gets shot in front of Yata, Yata goes to his funeral, Lupin shows up, and then boom! Zenigata jumps out of the grave and arrests Lupin. Because...why not I guess? That one was wild. XD

World is mine keeps putting out bangers, we have one where Goemon is fighting a woman on top of a train and he loses his sword and is hanging off the side of the train while a bad guy is pointing a gun at him, but Goemon is saved cause Jigen SHOOTS A BULLET THROUGH SEVERAL TRAIN CARTS TO HIT THE BRAKES so the guy flies of the train. All the while Superhero is playing.
