When Used

You study the controls on the time sleigh. Looks like they only have three settings:

Crimbo Rock
CrimboWeen Town
Crimborg Collective

MUSH!

You set the controls and push the button. Reality warps briefly around you.

Notes

  • Will probably only last until Crimbo Eve, as Uncle Crimbo mentions he will need it back.
  • Changes the "last adventure" link to reflect the proper time period.

References

  • The flux capacitor is a reference to the Back to the Future movies, in which the time-travelling car uses such a device.
  • A likely source for the "Gull-winged" could be that the time travelling car from Back to the Future is a Delorean and features the aforementioned gull-winged doors.
  • 170-horse open sleigh is a reference to the one-horse one from the "Jingle Bells" song. The song also features dashing through the snow and laughing all the way.
  • The mention of the ability to travel through "TIME ITSELF" is a reference to the Rocky Horror Picture Show, when Dr. Everett v. Scott claims Dr. Frank-N-Furter has created "A device which is capable of breaking down solid matter and then projecting it through space, and who knows, perhaps even TIME ITSELF!"
  • 170-horse is a reference to the DeLorean DMC-12 from Back to the Future which came from the factory with 170 horsepower
