So its based off of the Red Headed Alpha motor then. Does anybody know if this is going to be the only one or are there going to be more options like Alpha has?

certain things are made at the same factory!...they are not a copy of eachother they just share the same FACTORY for SOME THINGS not all...it is cheaper to share molds for certain parts and whatnot then it is to RETOOL a NEW machine...its not that they are the same...they just share certain things....THATS ALL!...oops i meant this for GO and ALPHA! lol
