125b top mount delay?

I'm looking for a simple delay pedal for slapback tones. I've heard the Aqua Puss is good for this, but its kind of big for a simple analog delay. Looking around but it seems there aren't many delays in this size box.
I've also seen the TWA echo in a nano enclosure, but that size pedal kind of bugs me. However, for something like $70, I might snag one.
Anyways, am I overlooking something or is there really not a delay pedal this size?

Greenhouse Retro Sky and the Red Witch Violet/Violetta are the only ones i can think of.
Aqua Puss is worth it though, they sound so good for bass slapback.

Seymour Duncan Vapor Trail. So GASworthy.

I forgot that one, I played it awhile back and other then me being a tiny knob snob I thought it was awesome... Dat loop input...

Have someone build you a cave dweller?

Man, I might get one and chuck a ring mid in the loop. Or an octave fuzz...

Or, get all inception and put a feedback loop in the effect loop with something cool in the feedback loop.

Damn, forgot about that one too. As much as I love my ES-2, I find myself not using the oscillation or the modulation switches at all. Nor the extra delay time
So something small with top jacks and the ability to experiment with my own modulation through the loop...Very gasworthy indeed
I kinda got used to having a tap tempo switch though :s

Its not as bad as that Greenhouse delay (no offense to Roy but dat shits ugly). Aqua Puss is pretty ugly too and I don't like the name. Really, all of those Way Huge pedals have stupid names. One reason I've overlooked them for a while.
Vapor Trail seems pretty cool but it seems pretty dark. I think I want something a little brighter for slapback tones.
I honestly might just get that TWA Echo. I can squeeze it next to my nano tuner at the beginning of my chain for pre-dirt slapback, and its $80 brand new. Juan has a demo of it but I'll need to listen again.

I don't disagree... Which is what 120-grit sandpaper and black spraypaint are for...
