I would pick a bus sit in it change the signs. If a bus i chose didn't have enough air I would start it up to charge it up so I could play with the doors. I did prefer playing pretend in the, then brand new, fishbowls. But the old looks were also very cool with their massive amount of toggle switches to the left of the driver. Fishbowl controls were remarkably simplified 2 large chrome dials with a black start button. Position the chrome dial push start and you're off. The floor buttons for the directionals fascinated me too. I liked when the bat-wings started to come in with their push button side sign control. No more cranks to turn! Being the curtain sign freak I am I thought this was great. |
