“GTF” Galactic Tank Owners Parlour

The wire form issue is easily resolved by pulling it up a touch on the right side near the bottom - That game had not been fettled since out of the box

What is you your not happy with about the tank ?

The 3D print quality just for me. It needs a sculptured model imo.

You bought the full bifta. I thought that was for the super LE only..
Of course, gotta have the tank cabinet😜😁 The LE has the topper and side tank tracks, knocker, shaker, invisible glass and coloured armour.
The SLE also came with some extras (signed apron, 3D backglass, posters, a pint glass, different coloured armour etc).

Thanks for this @SeikoKid really helpful to know for a new owner👍👍
I haven't had the chance to unbox yet and may not get a chance to until the weekend🫤

Is there an easy way to know if the tank mod is fitted??
What's the ball lock save mod?? If I need one I take it it's just an email to American Pinball?

I have a exfat formatted USB stick with the software on ready to go👍👍
Just followed your link to order the mylar but they are out of stock😔

Thanks again for the super helpful post👍
 
Tank mod is the black plastic behind the tank targets
Ball lock mod is the metal rod with the plastic on it
