I like Alternities... but I don't feel that they're worth their full RRPs, which is almost the same as Binaltechs* (Alternities are smaller and have no die-cast metal, so they ought to be cheaper). Consequently my Alternity collection is rather small. I like Convoy, although I got him loose mint in box for about $37. I've personally never felt they were worth the full $50 asking price though. JMHO.

-----------------------------------------
*Avg BT RRP = 4980JPY (approx. $52)
Alternity RRP = 4725JPY (approx. $50)

Yeah they should be cheaper , as BT are bigger as well!! And what with the coming GT alternity $105 basically $50 more for the girl figure

Alternity figures don't have metal? hmmm. I just thought they were de scaled Binaltechs, hence with metal, guess I was wrong. Is this the case now or something coz Ive got Bumblebee and Cliffjumper - they have metal and Im pretty sure these are alternity figures?

Allow me to correct myself -- it's not that Alternities have no die-cast metal, but they have a lot less die-cast metal than BTs. Most of Alternities' die-cast is limited to supporting substructures; Convoy's an example of this. So considering the smaller size and substantially lesser amount of die-cast metal, I find them to be poor value for money at full RRP.

For $50 you could just take a real girl out on a date.
