Soon to be Godzilla Premium owner. Order place. Super excited for this one! Looking for all advice on this game. Thanks

Quoted from Trooper11040:

So I just got the game Thursday and it’s absolutely incredible…my only issue so far seems to be the bridge will go nuts, and not always return to even…if I shoot a ball and it goes that direction, I’ll have to wait for a ball search before I can get it back. Any ideas?[quoted image]

I've had this issue as well with my new GZ Premium. Isn't there supposed to be another "e-clip" on the left side of the bridge? Mine is also missing that clip. I've seen pictures where a clip is installed there. I've asked my dealer for a replacement clip. What do others with Premium/LE machines say? Is there a e-clip on the left side of the bridge like on the right side?

Quoted from Apinjunkie:

So Stern just released the long awaited topper for mando. Looks cool, lights and hologram and interactive modes exclusive to the topper. If this is a sign of where they're going, better start saving up your pennies for the gz topper. MSRP on Mando topper is $2,000.

That's just crazy pricing!

Quoted from J-drum11:

Thank you everyone that answered my question this week.
My premium is being delivered Friday.
I would assume to add a shaker to this game?

Added it to my premium. It's makes a big difference. Great value for the money IMO.

#16664 1 year ago
Quoted from Jedi_Gill:

Are you sure you aren't supposed to leave the clear plastic pieces still on the bridge to ensure the ball doesn't get stuck on the bridge and also this gap closes?
The Bridge I got didn't have this problem and I didn't have to align anything.. One important thing to check is how you put it back together. I remember that the right side of the bridge, when you put the screw back in, the bridge can shift and you might have screwed it on a bit off.
See my picture for reference.
Notice that the gap is there but the plastic pieces are touching as they should. You really don't want the bridge pieces to touch as they'll wear each other out or break. This is actually what I didn't like about Lior's bridge and went with the mod from Kevin_LHeureux instead. It looked cleaner, matched the playfield better IMO and overall looks better.[quoted image]

Not supposed to re-use the plastics for the bridge mod. At least according to the instructions I received.

#16667 1 year ago
Quoted from Kevlar51:

Kevin_LHeureux recommends reusing the clear plastics. The side of the bridge facing the playfield has two layers of plastic--one with graphics and one without. They tend to stick together when removed.
He admits in a post on his thread that it might not be necessary, but is a good CYA.

Left them off on mine and have had zero issues. Still have them if needed.

I was waiting for a sale to get these. Order placed. Thanks John! FYI, the link in your post didn't work for me. It tried to take me to my store - which I don't have set up!?

Quoted from bush3262:

Mine requires hitting each ramp even in the first city. I have v1.00, did this change with a later update?

Yes, they updated that in 1.01 to only require 2 ramps not both sides (for first city only).

Quoted from Lateralus:

They will never get business from me again, that's a promise. I did call around, but I was too late in doing so. They were the only ones I could get an Alien from, so I also put down for a GZ at the same time. After Alien, and how much of a shit show it was with them handling my pin and screwing up my #, I emailed my other distros asking if I could get a Feb run and they couldn't promise one. Did I call everyone? No. Only the ones I trusted and have worked with and met personally; around 8-10 of them.
I decided to wait it out and was surprised with an invoice in early January from CT; I didn't know they did that bc they didn't do that with Alien. So, now since I'm paid in full I'll just wait, but never again. And I'm sure there are people who love CT, and that's fine, but imo experience they have been the worst distro to work with.

Looks like you are from St. Louis as am I. I was able to get a new GZ Premium from St. Louis Pinball in October last year. Might have got lucky with the timing but they were good to deal with.

Quoted from Jodannar:

Do those who have recent builds have circlip don both sides of the front of their bridge? Mine is binding and I’ve just noticed I have no circlip from a late November build. I’ve gotten under the bridge and tightened/loosened the screws and nut on the arm and it’s improved but still catches
[quoted image]

I noticed mine was missing this "E" clip. Reported it to my distributor and they ordered a new one from Stern for me.
