Chris:
Yes, those picks look like the Microbus I have seen. I've seen the "Barbie"
version that Harold referred to at Wal-Mart - they look like the Microbus shown
at your site, but not the T-5 shots at the following link:

They certainly look like two different vehicles to me. Will both be offered in
the states?
