Forgot this on on tomy's site.

The bottom picture shows two different bus stops. But very hard to see.

Six cells? Wow!

If you look close enough at my pictures you can make out the types of tomy buses.

looks like the buses will come with a 1.0 and 12:1 gears. no boost

no that that little picture of a bus in the bottom corner is the same as the bus on the top left corner of the screen. (not a new model)

Also usagi I checked the picture and the wheel base on the bus seems a little extended compared to my car. I do not know if I want a extended wheel base bit. It will be just like a zip zap.

I think the 6 cells comment was directed at my 6-volt battery pack comment.. I actually used 4 watch batteries. 1.5v * 4 == 6v

They do make multi cell Nicads. Jameco I think stock them.

My main queston is when will they be out? It still list Oct for the first four and Dec for the next four. Hope they have not slip!

Looks like the bus stop is just a square pole then. Was not sure of the sign looking square with writing on it for bus #3.

translation from the picture
"Super small-sized motor " micro B 1.0 " use (gear ratio 12:1) - the paint being completed body (the assembly of the simple part is necessary) - as for the fan on the roof, from 2 types of circle and angular type selective possibility. - Bus stop and the seal of 2 types have been attached. - Single 3 electric battery 2 uses (selling separately) * the picture is the prototype. Because the product there are times when it differs, please acknowledge.
Babel Fish Translation, In English:
Set contents - bus itself (body * chassis) x 1 - controller x 1 - bus stop, seal attachment"

i'm guessing that the chassis would be the same as the regular bit char-g in terms of length. that way people who buy the bus could buy other body sets and add it to their collection. plus it would cost too much to start a new chassis just for the buses. unless the monster trucks will use the same elongated chassis

It seems like this is tomy's latest creation turn all chasis like zz's then hurt everyone!

Oh well I guess I am going to have to go extended. To stay in the arena.Hey 323iT what you just wrote was exactly what I am thinking it is like you took my ideas out of my head

. Hear is a example below.

Almost forgot to mention, usagi do you know what that purple sign says. Does it clarify if that is the real Tomy Monster Truck?

usagi · #56 10-28-2002, 11:09 PM

yes they are real..........they look cool don`t they

for 3900.

Napalm_Guru · #57 10-28-2002, 11:25 PM

Absolutely I love em! Does the sign give any details on motor,gearing,exedra? And doesn't that look like a modified bb body. Plus It does appear to have 4 wheel drive, because of all that chassis room (but that is only a guess). Also note the front wheels they do not look like they are meant to turn, they might use the same steering method as digiQ.

binaryterror · #58 10-29-2002, 04:53 PM

That certainly is a bB modified to look more Chevy like! hahaha

Hmmm I hope these are neat, i might pick one up when the Mini comes out...get a cool bashing pair.

NorCalCoug · #59 10-30-2002, 07:00 PM

It says 'just in' but my pre-order now shows 'backorder' instead of 'not available'.

I hope that I get one of the first batches.

1 piece(s) @ 3980 yen each = 3980

I don't know the 'history' of the different buses and where they run (sorry, haven't done any research) but I liked how this one looked the best so far.

usagi · #60 10-30-2002, 07:39 PM

already!

Where are you ordering from?!
