    Default Bt 21 & Bt 22

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=170967

    Frontpaged on TFW2005 so it's good enough for me. Arcee is a great choice. Small sleek sexy body for her. Awesome. A BT I care about getting.

    The green one I suspect is an 'omage' to movie ratchet given the selections of Jazz, Arcee so far.

    Honestly, these don't look genuine at all. I saw 'em here

    F2F has them up for preorder. $45 is good for a dicast Convoy and Arcee is looking nice although I would have prefered they went with the orininally proposed Wildrider in silver.

    BBTS has them up for preorder too, not that it means much, since they'll list anything that is only a rumour.

    Arcee would be nice, but she'd be popular and sell out quick. Neon Prime however it just wrong.

    That Prime is a prototype.

    Arcee's head will be different as well as the wheels and spoiler.

    I doubt the Convoy would be die-cast - that mould has never been done as Die Cast. Takara may have beefed it up, but TakaraTomy aren't quite as generous.

    Still, live in hope, I guess.

    That Japanese text does actually say that BT Convoy will be die-cast.

    A Ram mold was created for diecast but not used due to the expense untill e-Hobby funded BT-17 Black Convoy.

    I heard that the metal used for Black Convoy wasn't actually diecast either, it was something cheaper. Also there are a few pieces of the body of Black Convoy theat arn't metal, which isn't unusual for BINALTECH.
