Does anyone have any details on what the main shot to the building is exactly on the Pro? I don't think I saw clearly on the video for sure, and can't tell from the images. Is it a 180 lift ramp to a habbitrail, standard ramp, or maybe just a loop that exits to the main inner loop spinner lane or something? I assume it's not just a static bash target. I know some of the other ramps btrails converge into the upper levels of the building, but what is the ground level direct shot into the building?

I'm interested to see how the Premium works at the different levels too - it was described as a bash toy at some stage, obviously it looks like the first two levels are feeds to loops/ramps, at least one level looks to be solid so presumably you bash it there at that height.

Quoted from Gutterghoul:

Curious about one thing. They refer to the tower as a bash toy in the stern feature matrix. But the bottom most levels of the tower, 1f is a horse shoe that comes out the lane just to the left of the tower, and 2f passes through to the back for the roof access vuk. If it did go down to 3f so a solid tower face was bashable, no holes would line up for the wire forms so theyd dribble out onto the roof. Will know Friday fir sure, but dont see a straight forward way for it to be a bash toy without chipping and assilting the roof every time you hit a ramp shot

Hmm good point - might be multiball only maybe then? When the building is lowered for bashing, if ramp shots just all hit/fall off the building roof surely that will be ripe for stuck balls and damage as you point out.

Perhaps "bash toy" was simply inaccurate...

Quoted from FlippyD:

I believe the bash toy is actually the Mecha Godzilla with the magnet in it.

That may be it, but they do specifically refer to the building as a "bash toy" in the feature matrix: "Dynamic mechanical motorized collapsing skyscraper building bash toy diverts path of shots to intersecting ramps based on floor
position"

There also appear to be opto sensors right behind the standup targets at the building lane entrance, which aren't there on the Pro. Those obviously might be used for many other reasons, but that similar opto positioning would support bashing the wall, similar to the optos on MET and TWD in front of Sparky and the Prison respectively, among other Sterns with bash toys.
