PURE BEETLE TURBONIUM

Awesome Turbonium Graphics!

More surprises have evolved from the recent discovery of Turbonium. Scientists announced that the new element has been successfully incorporated into a tee-shirt. Initial testing demonstrates the tee contains a preponderance of the same fashionable properties found in the new Turbo Beetle.

In a separate development, efforts to document Turbonium have been successful. Two limited edition posters are now available to the general public.

More turbonium-related announcements are expected in the days and weeks ahead. Officials are still recommending that you continue to educate yourself about Turbonium.
