“There isn't a single thing I can find wrong with this set to complain about. I guess if I had to pick something, it's that I wish he had a unique eye print to differentiate this set from the one you get with 8487 Flo's V8 Cafe and 8679 Tokyo International Circuit since they... More are exactly the same version of Mater in all three sets. Maybe a different mouth print. In any case it's a very minor point to complain about considering what a joy this set was.”

“It features a new hood with only one "light" attached, and a unique cab with a windshield placed inward with 1x2 flats with center studs, and a hook that can raise and lower.”
