Alternity GT-R Prime GT-01

[DELTAprime]

My GT-R Prime arrived today from HLJ and since nobody has posted anything on him I thought I'd give it a go. So here are some in hand pics of Prime and his creepy girl.

My initial impression is he's even better than the first version of this mold, but hard to justify the price, I might skip Megatron.

Great car decos I must say - are they stickers or painted on?

Odd that the figure isn't on a scale to fit inside the car ala Human Alliance... very odd.

Hmm, not really. they had the figures scaled for sitting inside for Kissplayers, Binaltech etc and they were inarticulate. These figures look like they are just using the MicroLady body, which has 30 points of articulation (if I remember my Microman spiel well enough.

If they wanted a decent action figure, it wouldn't fit inside

The MP-10 Spike figure fits inside an Alternity Convoy but yep, isn't exactly an action figure despite having some articulation.

Awesome

It's a really high quality paint job. The QC on the paint job is very good and it's a nice metallic red. My guess is it's that higher quality because this is a JGTC toy first, Transformer second.

Just some first impressions after receiving mine today - holy crap is this thing detailed! There's even tampo's on the wheel rims, so tiny but still recognisable. Beats out Binaltech Smokescreen i think, for most detailed TF vehicle ever.

There's a lot of subtle differences to the original mould to account for the extra bulkiness - which seems to make transform a slight bit harder. If i'm not mistaken the unavoidable dent during transform on the original toy (http://otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=87354&postcount=12) has been corrected which is a pleasing surprise though!

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

Certainly looks nice and I now find myself tempted to get the Fort Maxx since he has a new head...

[Trent]

Sooooo… is it worth it? Will it look good on my work desk?:confused:

[seespotrun]

Thanks for posting your quick impressions. I'm still trying to decide which remould to get. The deco looks so nice that I want at least one of them, but I already have the original Alternity Convoy so it's hard to justify picking up more than one.

I want these GT models sooo badly. Sadly they will remain at the bottom of my shopping list and I can picture their prices rising :(

Well HLJ got them for $80 ...that pretty cheap considering it 110 rrp ....Im still waiting for my one to arrive...! :(

[DELTAprime]

I'm still thinking as great as the quality of the paint job is, I still think it is overpriced. A very nice piece to have but a bit pricey for how much metal and plastic is in it.

[lancalot]

they should loose the figure and drop the price...as the figure so ugly! by the looks of the thing it even worst then a GIjoe figure and that was released in 80's ..it not that the technology isn't there its 2013 !!..Japanese figure are amazing now and quiet cheap now too..like the figma range ..they great and average price is $35 .... what where they thinking? :confused: the figure doesn't even fit inside so doesn't scale properly even...

Been a long time since i've been motivated to take some toy pics, here they are!

Great shots! Love those Volk TE-37 wheels. I have been chasing a set for my car but at around $5-6K for 4, I don't think it's ever gonna happen. :(

I'm gonna pick up 1 of these guys. ATM I'm leaning towards Megs or maybe Saber. Depends on which colour scheme I like more...

[lancalot]

Wow ...cool pic kurdt ... the bonnet grill is crazy !! nice man .... The decal detail so good....did you have any QC at all?

[kurdt_the_goat]

It's essentially flawless. You can see on the back of vehicle shot, the yellow part has a very tiny bit of scratched away paint but that's the extent of it!

[Sinnertwin]

Holy crap! That looks amazing :eek:

should have been an R34.. this is all
