The most G1 carton accurate BT/ALT toy?

[Paulbot]

Hound.

Smokescreen is kind of close except completely different colours and on second thoughts is more like the G1 toy than the pudgy G1 cartoon character. The repaint Silverstreak is closer to the G1 cartoon version of Bluestreak.

Most Alternators/Binaltech toys do not look like the cartoon characters as they turn into different modern cars.

Grimlock is possibly the least accurate.

Agreed; Hound is the most accurate when compared to his G1 namesake.

I always wanted a Prowl Alternator using Smokescreens mold. That would be the ultimate. The Honda RSX mold just flat out sucks monkey balls.

This ones pretty good (but it's a custom... just in case others got their hopes up too)...

Here is my contribution:






The most accurate:

- Hound
- Bluestreak (Silverstreak)
- Prowl (when head swaped with Alert and reprolabeld)
- Jazz/Meister (White version when Reprolabeled)

Pretty much all the BTs/Alts that represent characters that originally had car modes are good representations of their G1 characters even if not accurate.

It's a long shot but are you thinking of selling that Prowl? If you are, keep me in mind

Sorry but no

But why don't you make one yourself? It's zero risk. All you need to do is:

- Get a BTA Alert and BT Prowl toy
- Get Reprolabels
- Head swap them (ball jointed)
- Apply Reprolabels.

The process is fully reversible too as it's easy to peel off the Reprolabels and head swap again.

I think Hound (he's a Jeep!), Tracks (he's still a Corvette!) and Skids (as a small Blue Scion XB he's still good) are pretty faithful to the G1 aesthetic

[Vector Prime]

Definitely Hound.

I only have one BT/ALT, but damn, after seeing kup's pics, I'm inspired... (whipping out the CC as I search eBay)

Thanks Kup. I might give this a go. Is there any re-spraying required?

none at all. Check the pics, aside from stickers the core figures are untouched.

I'm so going to do this when I next go back to my BTs in Singapore
