More Transformers Alternity Info

By News_Staff on Friday, June 20, 2008

We have provided more Transformers Alternity information straight from the TakaraTomy booth at Tokyo Toy Show 2008. Some of the information was revealed earlier but there's more!

TakaraTomy explains Alternity at Tokyo Toy Show 2008:

  • Alternity is a different series from Binaltech.

  • The size is 1/32 scale so it can easily fit on any desktop. The size is slightly larger than deluxe size figures.

  • The pricing scheme was based on today's cost of the various materials used.

  • There are two colors of the car because the silver was used to represent a real NISSAN GT-R color that is only available now and the red was chosen specifically because it is a Convoy.

  • When transformed, the rear seats becomes the feet, the front seats when folded down becomes part of the armor surrounding the arms and the roof and the front grill have a spring action mechanism. The video demonstrates the spring action mechanism where the front grill is divided into three pieces: right, left and center. The right and left sides encloses the center piece.

  • Because the license is heavily under the supervision of NISSAN, we would like sales schedule to start in November but it may be delayed to the end of the year.

  • Other Observations: The design of the head is similar to Nike and Fire Convoy.

    Stay tuned to Tformers.com for more details as they are made available. Your best resource for all the Transformers news and community every day.

    		I'm almost certainly going to get it if it makes its way to the US, I'm not sure I will if I have to order online. I'll like to see how it fits in with Classic and RiD toys. If it fits in pretty well and I have the option, I think I'll go with the silver version and use it as a dif... read more
