Nope, but I did call Chevrolet merchandising today... They were actually real nice. When I gave them a call, the guy I needed to talk to wasn't at his desk, but he called me back in 5 minutes! The deal is this: Chevy merchandising for Europe is real small. I guess they have about 3 or 4 employees. To put it simply, they were totally surprized by the huge wave of orders that came through on Wednesday M<arch 27th for Swerve. There were literally hundreds of orders extra, the guy told me, and they were totally unprepared for it (not TF fans, I guess).

So, anyways, it meant that they still weren't done processing all the orders, but they would probably finish the shipping this week. He told me my order was safe and would be shipped :APPLAUSE:

So... if you did get a succesful order in, but haven't received it yet (like me), chances are it will arrive this week or next. Hope this helps everyone who is still waiting...

Hi
I guess that good news, thanks.
Now I need to find time to phone up.

I like its design. It's at least better than Swindle.

Ah, a great start to the weekend! I came home from work to (finally) find the UPS guy with my package containing two Swerve Aveo's! Even though the car sure is ugly, as a robot it looks the business and as a TF it's a great collectible!

Wow. I wish i'd live to see the day Aveo Swerve will be featured in the gallery.

The prices on eBay are somewhere between affordable (50-60$) and ludicrous (130-150$).

That's still too heavy for my purse. Poor me is only willing to buy toys at below twice the regular price. That means to say, Deluxe Aveo should not come close to $20, for me to take home.

Don't get me wrong. I'm a huge TF fan. Only, not blessed with deep pockets.
