Title: V-81 Differences? Post by: pinballdude on February 02, 2014, 12:31:46 pm I don't actively seek machines but I would like to know what others are talking about when the 81s are mentioned.
The listing page for the Vendo 81 mentions version A & B. But I've seen "C" mentioned. Did I see a "D" or am I imagining? Also there are only 2 versions shown on the listing page but neither mentions if it is "A" or some other version, they just look painted different. I think I've seen an "off center" logo before so that is an "A"? I'd sure like to see photos of all versions under the V-81 listing instead of 2 that look the same. Also, show differences between small/large coin door. Thanks. Terry Title: Re: V-81 Differences?

Both B and D came red with white top, larger embossing that is not centered to the machine but centered to the space above the coin door. Both A and B have the same size smaller coin door while the D has the larger coin door. I'm not sure if the C has ever been confirmed but if so it is just like a D but all red.
