Also, a good deal (but not all) of the Binatechs have the steering wheel on the right side of the car, all the Alternators, except for an early version on Silverstreak have the steering wheels on the left.

Join Date: Jul 2002 Posts: 7,366 Location: State of Independance Collection Count: 944 News Credits: 2 | I was under the impression that BT-17 Skids and BTA-03 Broadblast were the last BTs to have any diecast parts. All of the figures after that (Kissplay and exclusives) were all plastic like their alternator counter parts. Quote:

naw, the convention exclusive from Japan? that sucker's almost all metal. I fawn after one, but only to replace my alt. trailbreaker custom with a metal one so I'll never be able to justify the now $400 pricetag.

Plus KP is not BT. if it were they would have been numbered and Black Convoy would not have been BT-17 since Skids was 16. he would have been BT 20 if KP rodiums,Prime and autorooper were part of BT.
