hmmm... I really think people go over-board with this character. I didn't
exactly like either Time Cruiser line or Time Twister line.... just a way
for LEGO to dump off some of its excess (and useless pieces).
it was either that, or the set designers spent too much in the "fun house" (1)
at Bilund.
I happen to think that "Timmy" isn't that bad. (2) I have 3 of the Time
Cruiser "GO Carts", and I have 6 soccer busses, which "Timmy" has made his
way onto...That means I have 9 "Timmies".

(1) set designers in Bilund have to spend time in a special workshop that is
very much like a funhouse as a way to visualize what kinds of things kids
would enjoy..... LEGO tries to be extremely kid-focussed...in a lot of
bizarre ways.
(2) which isn't saying much due to my tolerance of Pink Lego (well Paradisa).
Some would say brushing with infatuation, as I have most of the key sets
in the Paradisa line-up.
