Re: General - Auckland (Part 3)

The two Bendys at Metalman East Tamaki are 2009 & 2017.
So does that mean 2020 will go to Motat instead of 2010 :?:

Re: General - Auckland (Part 3)

That is good news they are saving a bendy.
Especially after MOTAT management turned down Nissan Scorpion 1202 to the Bus collection.
There are two Bendys at Metalman East Tamaki not sure what numbers
From what i could see was possibly 2010 & 2017 :?:
