I was just wondering if anyone ask why it did not have a swinging bell? That would have just took it to the next level since their is already legacy big boys already Out their. don't get me wrong, I will still buy this one, I just thing it would have been a nice feature.

UsKerman,

Real Big Boys did not have a swinging bell, they were mechanical.
