    Was going to give this series a miss since they're just remolds, and very expensive ones at that, but the sponsor livery looks so awesome. Will probably pick up one.

    The Maximus/Kondo Racing/green and white version looks the best IMO. I wonder when that one wil be released.

    All those racing sponsors mess up a decent looking car mode.

    Just pre-ordered GT Prime.

    More visually interesting than the Calsonic GT-R. I'm also not sold on the bot mode color scheme for Saber. All blue with a red head. Hmmm...

    This would have been a good opportunity for TT to make both GT-Rs late G1 Japan series commanders. Red/Star Saber and Blue/Dai Atlas.

    Unfortunately, using Convoy/Prime for name recognition always trumps all else. That, and Dai Atlas was already done using the regular Alternity mold.

    These look like the best alt. mode transformers of the past decade, including their alternity predecessors.

    Preordered both at hlj, don't know how I'll pay for them but I'll find a way. Though to be honest, I'm not so hot over Convoy because he's already got an alternity figure.

    I am curious as to, seeing how they're almost entirely remoulded, if they keep any die cast metal parts. The original GT is the only alternity that hasn't passed from my hands yet, are any of the car shell parts metal?

    Parts fit looks a little poor, hopefully these are still only at prototype stage.

    If thats what you want, there is the regular Alternity Optimus Prime color scheme.

    I don't like the sponsors either but without them, it wouldn't be that different from the original.

    They look great! Especially the red/Optimus version. I am most interested in the blue/Star Saber version though.. cuz Star Saber is awesome (Optimus is awesome too but there are hundreds of versions of him).

    Damn.. I'll probably buy all these. One of the other two was Toxitron right? That is pretty obscure and cool, can hardly pass that up :/

    That was fake.

    The three are Optimus Prime, Star Saber and Fortress Maximus.
