The Rustbucket 3 is a standard-issue Plumber jet that Kevin modified using some extra alien gadgets and technology.[1]
Appearance[]
In Ultimate Alien, the Rustbucket 3 was a large green jet-like vehicle resembling a Concord.
In Omniverse, the Rustbucket 3 has a forward-swept wingspan, a larger cabin, a shorter and wider body, and an extrusion coming from the back of each wing. Its color scheme is similar to the Proto-TRUK's and the initials "RB3" are printed on the sides of the cabin.
History[]
Ultimate Alien[]
The Rustbucket 3 first appeared in Fame, when the team tracked down an alien that had been stealing from NASA.
It was then destroyed via crash-landing in The Ultimate Sacrifice, before being repaired in the next episode, The Mother of All Vreedles, where it was shot down by Octagon Vreedle and flew into the ocean, then fully repaired, all in the same episode.
Omniverse[]
In For a Few Brains More, it showed up with its brand new paintjob to allow Kevin and Gwen to assist Ben against Albedo and Khyber.
