Where is everyone getting prices from? Alternity deluxes at 50 bucks? I highly doubt that. I'd think more to the point of henkei price points for deluxes unless it contains diecast and junk.

fantofan.jp says the price will be 4725Y, and mentions that the toys have movie style automorphing.... it still seems like a high price, perhaps the cost of licensing the model?
Those shiny/chromed Japanese Classic Sunstreaker and Prowl leave the bland and horrible Hasbro ones for dust. Definatly going to skip the American ones in favour of importing, though it does mean I may have to get some of the Japanese Classics v1 to display them all together .. Those pictures even have me wanting USA Edition Powerglide and Silverbolt who I was going to skip...
The Nissan looks hot and I hope that they are more complex than movie deluxes, espy since they are BT priced. Can't wait for more information.
Thundercracker lookd great, another reason to ditch the original MP Stars.
I'm a little disappointed in their choice of MP-7 actually. I'm rapped that we are getting an MP Thundercracker, but I think it's pretty poor to have two redecoes in a row, and on top of that, they're of exactly the same mould, and it's already half way through the year, meaning we're probably only going to see one MP in 2008. And I was looking forward to an MP Grimlock too.![]()
I can recall having a talk with 2 Mates about a week ago on who MP-7 was gonna be...
Our general consensus was that it was probably gonna be a reissue of White UM with a MP-sized Car-Carrying Trailer which would form his armour (ala the City Commander kit)
We were pretty sure that TakaraTomy weren't gonna use the same MP mould twice in a row...
I guess we got it wrong by a long shot...![]()

Looks like the Alternity series is a new scale, 1/32. Kinda disappointed by this since it wont be sitting next to the rest of my Binaltechs and alternators. News here: (add the t)
