Hello, Everyone,
I got Toshiba Actas 8650s from "YAFUOKU" (It is nickname of Yahoo Auction Japan) last week.
I think, it is very cool design, but I'm not sure why trim and button is light green?? ;-)

Wow, what a sweet little machine! I'm lovin that top panel with those cool tape buttons and the huge tuner knob that cuts into the tuner window - very unique looking box.

Nice find,

Congrats,

James.... :-)

I have to agree. The tape buttons make a welcome change from big, square, clunky buttons.

If this is the case, I'd seriously consider re-colouring the 'green' areas with a green spray paint as it suits the box quite well. :yes:

You are right! Light green color is very beautiful, so I believe it is original color. It just oxidation :-P
