Right, like you never use your Matchbox cars to represent characters in their own dramas. That's why the hot rod is secretly cheating on the Barbie dream mobile with the one that looks like the Mystery Machine with chipped paint. All while the secret garage under the couch gets found by the princess carriage crew.....



Jokes aside, this episode was both good and bad. I really disliked the slapstick used since it was unnecessary, and I too would agree that the cars are possibly the worst use of background filler ever, and the magic mcguffin for every conceivable plot hole in the Drive story.

While the new Roid Medic is easy on the eyes, I could do without. Revealing Chase was good enough, although I still hold out hope that he's going to go the way of Meteor and join team Belt.

Next week looks like it's going to be a bit more fun. I love the use of the phrase Let's Henshin. But that's the Go-Buster fan in me.
