Randy | They made a die cast mold for Convoy. So you never know and yes I know there already was a die cast mold used for the Nemesis Prime but that was limited to 1000. Therefore, if they can make a die cast mold essentually for a limited release, anything can happen. | |

Randy | I was always under the impression that all the Alternator molds, (including the ones that have never been made as Binaltechs), were all originally intended to contain diecast parts. Afterall, we got Optimus Prime as an Alternator long before he showed up as Binaltech Nemesis Convoy. I'm still holding out hope that they will eventually release Mirage,(or Hot Rod), Ravage and Rumble as Binaltechs, even though it seems like Takara suddenly switched plans for it with a smaller scale line. I'm not into this Alternity stuff at all. | |

Then they cancelled him and announed Kiss Players Convoy a few months later.
Most likely Binaltech Black Convoy used the diecast parts originally created for Ginrai.
Meanwhile, Takara probably never created any diecast molds for the Ford GT, which is why BT Rijie was released as a clear all plastic version instead.
Offering: Binaltech Hound, Swindle, Ravage (Corvette), Skids.
Can buy in stores: Robot Heroes Tigatron/Inferno, Ricochet/Predaking.

Therefore, please support Binaltech's by buying them. I have yet to be dissapponted.
I don't know why so many give the Alt Prime such a hard time. I think it is an excellent figure and has perhaps the best Prime head ever released. www.primetoystore.com | |
