    *sigh* after the kibble tucked away so impressively neat on grindrod and aurora, I still can't get over that lazy design on the arms of this guy or his design brother not-chase-whatsisname. Shame, really.
    Very much digging their take on Wideload though.

    Yep Wideload is the best of the lot, he seems ready to do damage in both modes. Trace is actually not bad in hand as long as you are careful with the side mirrors, but they should have gone with either Goldbug or Wideload next. I am sure it's because they need more time to test the add on parts.

    Fair enough, Trace (sic!) is not bad at all, it just doesn't scream "throttlebot" to me; and Expressway seems to take the same route.

    Maybe I should get two more Auroras and paint them blue and red, for a consistent family of Nottlebots.
    Yeah, I'd ditch the combiner gimmick any tlme for the look of that iconic group design.

    ^ Sweet! Hopefully they'll start shipping from other retailers.

    I made the mistake of orders Shinebug, Expressway and Sideload at the same time, and have been waiting for this guy to drop so my order can ship.

    When this started, I was a swinging bachelor. I am now married, bought a house in the suburbs, and have a kid on the way.

    I'm lucky I can still afford to finish Pile-up (or whatever we're calling the gestalt.)

    Tony appears to be out of stock already. The listings down. That was pretty damn fast.

    I don't understand the red mirrors. Did Expressways original toy/toon/comic counterpart have red mirrors?

    Now I just need the Grind Rod reissue to hit.

    Looks like we need to change the thread title to Highway.
