That is the truth. I had to buy 3 Terrordromes to get one Complete one, with no broken parts. But, due to the age of the plastic I realize if I touch those doors the small pegs holding the stands will probably just crumble. They’re just not worth it.

I plan on customizing my Terror Drome (I've seen some sweet ones online that have given me some great ideas), so I don't really care about complete, original doors. Has anyone customized the Gunner's Doors with a stronger (metal?) tab? Are there any tutorials? Or can anyone offer some advice from their experiences? Also, where and what size hose do I need for the gas pumps? Any information you can give is greatly appreciated! Jason |

The one I got has turned somewhat gray over time. Can I do anything to restore the white?

WD-40, Goo-Gone or Rubbing Alcohol work. The problem with the white plastics used by Hasbro is that the area underneath the decal will be whiter than the rest of the plastic so you are often forced to reapply decals in the same location to cover the colors differences.

Question for some of you more seasoned Terror Drome owners, do the two main guns "have" to be placed side by side so that they are basically facing the same direction?
I've taken my TD apart and am currently working on customizing it with a paint-wash and custom computer stickers from Cobrastickers. I got to looking at how the blue pieces fit together on the white plastic base ring, and it looks to me like you can pretty much set the guns in any configuration you want. Has anybody tried this? Do you know of any customs that have the guns opposite of each other? Thanks. Jason |

PersonallyI use baby oil for adhesive removal. I like how the oil rejuvenates the plastic but you MUST clean if off or it will yellow in time and stain.
