It’s almost time to reveal what lurks in the shadows...

That ties in nicely with the toad door closing sound

Too bad us G1’ers won’t get that fancy light show

I was hoping for more 80s theme stuff.. maybe having the R1 become an Autobot and play the Transformers theme..

But I'm happy to see we're getting something. Looking forward to it.

How would they be able to without the proper lightbar? I'm certain if there was a way they could, they would.

I agree. I wasn’t saying. Man they should do that for G1. I know we can’t. Just saying it’s too bad cause it looks cool.

Yes, but us early adopters will always be cooler than the Gen2 trend followers

My wife told me to get a grown up car like the R1.

For a feature that lasts about a week? Meh. I don't have FOMO.

I get that from driver door when it rains. Rubber gasket rubbing on door jamb.

I am generally not impressed with the Halloween stuff; not as much as my kid is impressed. I did, however, order a truck that was supposed to have a canoe rack, a kitchen, a winch, and self-driving capabilities. I hear all of RJ's acknowledgments that some stuff needed to be left behind. I do recall accepting delivery of a vehicle without those features. So, I'll admit there are times when I am frustrated. All that said, I just added five new scratches and dented my side panel while driving silently deep in the woods of Vermont this past fall and that is ultimately what I paid for.

Whatever it is I love it. Not as much as Knight Rider, but I love it….

Yawn.

Why do people always poo poo all the threads on this site with whining? You can literally find 250 other threads where you can discuss your displeasure with RJ regarding the lack of the camp kitchen, tank turn, and how Driver + isn't as good as my 2002 RAV 4... etc.

With that said.... Halloween is great and the preview I got to see of Halloween mode traveling down the swamp was a little lack luster, but is still great because of how good the graphics are. After seeing the teaser, Gen 1 R1's will definitely be missing out on the multi-color light show, not because the Gen1's aren't awesome, but because the RGB lightbar wasn't on the radar when the R1's were conceived.
