The rumor has been 13k. I hope it's not true. I think they will shoot themselves in the foot if that is the price. Pinballs shot up during the pandemic, and flippers rode the wave. Pinball companies then jacked their prices up to match, which alienated/lost a lot of collectors and potential buyers.
I don't see an unknown themed pinball selling well at that price point. Hell...pins with GREAT themes are now struggling at those price points.
Galactic Tank Force was the surprise of the show for me. It played FAR better than I was expecting. It looked gorgeous and was smooth like buttah!
Quoted from cooked71:Anyone who played this have any feedback on the flipper setup? Wider than normal? Did you have a chance to use the posts underneath? Could you deadbounce into those lanes? Are the lanes coded?
Flipper gap is normal. The posts were definitely used. You can deadbounce...but the rubber they used was EXTREMELY bouncy. Playing around with the flippers was not recommended at the show. The lanes are coded.
The game was tons of fun, and I think it will be an underrated hit. A lot of people don't like how they rolled it out. Understandable. It was truly impressive in person, however. I don't care about the rollout blunders. That's the past. This game is GOOD.
IIf I had one complaint, it would be the air balls. The tank in the middle can be hit so hard that the ball goes flying causing air balls and dimples. I'm not sure if mylar is the answer, but this will absolutely have to be addressed moving forward.
Quoted from titanpenguin:I backhanded the left ramp twice.
That's impressive. Most people couldn't hit the ramp whatsoever. Backhanding it seemed almost impossible.

It's supposed to be campy.........
Quoted from Ballypin:Damn. Didn't win the GTF SE Project Pinball raffle. Guess I need to take GTF out of my pinside collection now.
Im with you there. I hope they raffle off a pulp fiction soon
