Description Looks like the Professors latest delivery plan didn’t go quite as expected.

His idea was to be able to make deliveries beyond the local spaceport. Unfortunately Fry won the game of “rock, paper, scissors” and got to drive. Fry being Fry, he didn’t or wouldn’t listen to his spotter. Yes, Leela was his spotter. Benders job is to sit in the back and make sure the cargo wasn’t damaged.

It’s easy to see where I got the idea for this. There is a show where three American truck drivers drive through the Himalayas.

Yes, There is scrapbook stuff.

No, sorry   That'd be too dramatic.  More like a klutzy driver.

Oh no! Prof. Farnsworth downsized planet express...now they have a hover truck.
Also, Bender can't bend his neck. I remember David X Cohen once did that while creating the Godfellas episode and got his drawing hung in the wall of the writting staff with the big words "ILLOGICAL" and his autograph

Well, actually had a hover truck. The last I heard it was still at the body shop. The Professor couldn't afford to pay the repair bill untill this delivery was complete. But since it hasn't been delivered, he hasn't gotten paid...

It had a short hard life. I think the Professor will take a big hammer and fix it.

What other show is this based on? I don't think I'm familiar with it. Anyway, I like the concept for Futurama, and the picture looks good.

Thanks Joe, I was surprised how well the two shows crossed over.

BTW: History Channel. IRT Deadliest Roads.

The colors are great, Leela's expression is great, and the idea of Bender with the banjo is shear perfection. This is a gas!

Cool! It was tough getting all three figures to scale correctly, let alone doing something subtly interesting.

Bender with the banjo came from the episode "Where the Buggalo roam". Sorry, but I can't take credit for it.

It still was a great idea to throw in there...it made it a true hit. Remember what I told you...you never know when (or where) those ideas will hit!

You might send this over to the Mercedes-Benz 4th generation Actros design team. Offer the concept for a new gull wing.

I think that by then Mercedes is probably owned by the Omicronians. Who do you think builds their spaceships ?

Oh monkey trumpets! I made that way too easy! Excuse me, I have to go sulk for a bit...

Man, you're just too sharp! Do me a favor and don't tell anybody else where they are. I thought it'd be a challenge to see them. Shows what I know...
