Autobase Aichi has posted some additional information on the Transformers GT Alternity series. They have confirmed what was previously speculated about the toys having new weapons – GT Prime has an Optimus Prime rifle which transforms into an impact wrench, while GT Star Saber has his signature Saber Blade, which transforms into a refueling machine.
Release details have also been revealed by Autobase Aichi. The first two releases in the series will be GT Prime and GT Saber in March 2013. GT Maximus, the third Fortress Maximus version, is as yet unconfirmed.

What does that even mean?
I do hope we see what the final figures look like soon as well as the girl figurines.
I am hoping the Race Queens are not in 1/36 scale so that they are not tiny.

And it will end up from bad to worse eventually

Care to make any reccomendations, you know, name some names? I haven't dealt with any Japanese based retailers besides ebay before.

At least it's not Kissplay…. (I hope)
I'm pleased with the lower preorder price at various Japanese online retailers. Still can't afford both though
adambman
Most admirable! Have you preordered it yet? I haven't preordered any of them yet; since one thing may lead to anther, I'm keeping my thoughts on the lot of them as far back in my mind as possible.
In a similar sense, I have to ask you, will Transformers GT Star Saber satisfy your hunger for that character or get you anticipating Encore and/or MP versions?

I don't mind the strange character choices the GT line has but I wish they (or a 3rd party) actually nailed the head designs instead of this generic look. Actually i think i have a problem with all Alternity heads barring BB/CJ.
I think just proper heads and an equally strange GT decepticon lineup (Dezarus, Scorponok, ?) would help me stomach the price or at least make me pine for them.

Race queens? This line went from awesome to suck really fast.
Stepper
Sure hope that the GT03 head will be a Fort Max head instead of just repaint from Convoy head.

GT Star Saber is MINE.

Friggin' seen this mold already, but the prototypes still look stunning. Crap- don't want to get both.

I was wondering the same thing. I wonder how large the Race Queens are going to be. I hope not too small, but i'm guessing they will probably make it in scale to the car for posing purposes.
Hmm sad but i was mainly interested in GT-R Fort Max and his race queen.
SydneyY
Gah I wish they lowered the price by getting rid of race Queen figures. Because the more I look at the pics the more I want to own them both. But no way I can swing ¥20,600 in one go even though I start putting some money aside until March.
DrillBIT
I wonder if I can purchase the race queens separately.

Way too expensive…

The GT wing just look fantastic on the car

Glad that it's confirmed they come with the girl figurines as well.

Microman size or not,am not so sure but it maybe the size of Spike as per MP10 figure,which must be able to fit into the GTR
influence82
It will probably microman sized.

I think each Super GT comes with a little human figure if am not wrong
