    That looks interesting. Looks like they are intending to make the others too.

    Really like the look of this guy. Verry clean and un-kibbled robot and alt modes. If this is from the Hegemon people, and thier qc is good, we may have yet another top quality 3rd party company.

    Almost looks like it could be re-purposed into a Brawn as well.

    If that picture at the bottom is silhouettes of other Throttlebot cars, then they don't have a Wideload, but they do have a Goldbug, as there are four cars... Chase, Freeway, Searchlight and Goldbug. Then again the silhouettes might not be toy accurate.

    Love it. I have a real soft spot for the Throttlebots, and this looks great. I love that glittery green.
