His feet don’t have to reach the pedals, they just need to reach the turtles stacked on top of the pedals.seeing over the stering wheel might be a problem though they might have a turtle telling him where the other cars are… can they read street signs?
I’m just picturing a toy story 2 pizza truck hijack scenario where one person is turning the wheel while others look out of the windows and shout various directions to the people handling the controls.
in his very first movie, having boarded the truck and holding a knife, Rambo asks “what’s in the back?” and the driver says “M-60.” feeling that vibe here.
I honestly have to wonder why nobody has considered trying to fix the reality blindness problem yet. I mean, Ginny probably worked on it at some point.
Not necessarily. If she knew the mechanism by which the cure works, she should be able to reverse it. Unfortunately, that might have an unpleasant side-effect of turning normal people Mad, even if they were not previously predisposed to Madness.
I was assuming that Skin Horse’s primary goal in infiltrating A-Sig bases and so on was to find out where the Whimsy mind-control thingummy was based and take it out. I admit I’m not sure this has actually been stated though.
The turtle is awesome. A thrill-seeker willing to act out of sheer random whimsy, with no respect for the law, in a cute non-threatening shell. True, #12 is mostly harmless, but she has the true nature of a genuine force of chaos.
All we need now is for one of the little guys to go full-on Mad-Scientist.
I think Renard might have some trouble reaching the gas and brakes…
Good thing he has turtles, then.
It’s turtles, all the way to the bottom.
I *just* re-watched that QI Episode.
That might come with its own set of problems.
“Okay, 12, 14, and 254, push down on the starboard pedal. A little more please, those soldiers are getting close.”
“We’re pushing as much as we can! We don’t have the limb strength!”
” Okay, you six crawl on top of them and weigh it down! ”
“There’s not enough room!”
I would love the turtles to rig up an array of pulleys to operate the truck Bromeliad-style, but there probably isn’t enough time.

And the problem ended up being the polar opposite… XD
Is that an A-Sig troop truck? Looks like fatigues and army boots in the second panel.
Indeed it does. Seems like Renard is getting in over his furry little head.
What, it will lead to him being hunted by A-Sig troops? That was half an hour ago.

Oh, I hope so! 😉
You can rob so many people!

You’d need to experiment on a reality-blind human. And she’s probably had to give that up since she got involved with Nick.
Not necessarily. If she knew the mechanism by which the cure works, she should be able to reverse it. Unfortunately, that might have an unpleasant side-effect of turning normal people Mad, even if they were not previously predisposed to Madness.
Maybe the right pair of spectacles.
Paging Mr. Piper, Mr. Toddy Piper…
Roddy, not toddy! Dang autocorrect!

“Besides, who’d try to steal a non-armored military transport in the middle of an active war zone?”
You could always mail yourself, Renard. Just remember to put “caution: live animals” on it
Wouldn’t be the worst thing I’ve seen going through the mail…

Well, the possum duo were apparently some sort of Mads, so it’s clearly something that can happen to constructs as well as humans.
Not to mentioned the demented gerbil in “Narbonic”. (No, not Artie, the other one)
Dana?
The turtles have so far advised Renard to
1. be gay
2. do crimes
Does seem to be the night [in the woods] for it.
Is this going to turn into a Geico commercial where the raccoons steal a garbage truck?
I want a background image of Turtle #12 saying “Yay! Crimes!”
