    Nice... no need for me to worry then. :eek: 

    I guess Blurr could be in the next wave, as Asia often gets toys a month or so before America, especially the non-mainline items (which we don't often see sightings posted unless it is an unknown item like Blurr, so Salvage could have been out in Asia a number of weeks ago).

    It's a garbage truck, it literally says so right there on the packaging.

    They are literally the exact same thing, what the fuck :lol 

    I know! I sort of like it, it makes the reveals more exciting (plus, less waiting to get them)

    No they're not. Long Haul is a dump truck, a transport for large quantities of aggreagate materials in the constuction industry. Salvage is a garbage truck, a lorry that goes around the streets collecting garbage bags and emptying bins. Wee bit of a difference.

    Yes, that comment was posted in another thread which has now been merged into this one.

    Yes they are. Look at where I live... dump trucks and garbage trucks are the exact same thing in the U.S.. I'm not British, not everybody uses terminology in the same way. We take garbage to the dump, which is why they're synonymous for us. We don't even use the term lorry.

    Huh? I've lived in Southern California my whole life and always thought these were two different things: dump truck = the kind you see at the construction site, garbage truck = the one you see in suburbia picking up consumer trash.

    Google "dump truck" images and then Google "garbage truck" images, and you see two vastly different kinds of waste management vehicles (and exactly how I've always thought of the two, and I'm not British).

    By those terms Salvage is definitely a garbage (or recycle) truck.

    As a Brit I can say I call a dump truck a dump truck and a garbage truck a bin lorry.

    They're garbage trucks where I live.

    Was Rescan Optimus also found in TX?

    I too live in the U.S., and they are NOT the exact same.
    Want proof?

    As you can plainly see, they are indeed, two totally different things.

    Look the same to me. :D  :lol 
    Anyone else psyched out by how you have to CLIMB STAIRS to drive that dump truck?!?! :D  I wanna drive that sucker!!!! :D  :thumb 

    To get a good sense of scale: anyone remember that Jackie Chan movie where he drove one of those through a building?! :D  Might've been a dump truck, cause it was huge.
