It's my understanding that Globe made (or had surplus?) a special motor that was very close to the one used in transfer cases used in certain GM models, and that you could buy one that was almost the right one from GM, but Globe would not sell them, they only donated. But I could be wrong.

My main point is that the Globe is not commonly available, it's hard to interface, and it's only available in one size and ratio. It's not anywhere close to being an ideal robot motor. The Banebots motors are...although because of the variety of motors and transmissions available, and since there's no way for the company to anticipate what the specific parts demand will be (they just know it will be large), they can't make all the transmissions ahead of time.

There's no way to please everyone.
