Saw that on Mega's FB page today, and I'm afraid that I also posted a slightly snarky reply, along the lines of "I just found out that Hot Wheels makes cars other than Bone Shaker. Who knew?" or something like that.
Still, this is a terrific looking model, and I have this crazy, outlandish, off-the-wall fantasy that it'll someday appear on retail shelves.

At it's size, I'm thinking they're going for a ProBuilder type of thing which I'm all for. I will agree that Bone Shaker is probably overdone, but it is iconic Hot Wheels, so go with what sells and is known by the general population.

For some reason every time I see/hear "boneshaker" I think of wumpscut.

It's like how, when Mega had the Marvel license, they released 500 versions of Spider-Man. Or how Kenner released 1,000 versions of Luke.

I went grocery shopping this morning at the Super Kroger, ran down the toy aisle and they had the Tiger Shark and Bone Shaker Monster Trucks. I grabbed a Bone Shaker cause I like the look of it better, I am the problem

LOL! I admit that I'm quite fond of that skull-face front piece, but even so!
