2007 did
not have the same gearbox as any other year. That was the year of the BaneBots 56mm gearbox, which in as-shipped-in-the-kit form was
not remotely ready for the task of playing a very physical game like Rack 'N Roll. (Whether they were ready after the fixes that went out was a rather subjective matter that depended on your application.)
You are correct that the Toughbox first entered the kit
in 2008. We used SuperShifters that year on 1618, so those sat off to the side.
There will inevitably be enough unintentional failure in any endeavor we take on that adding intentional failure on top of that seems unnecessary. - Jared Russell [more]
