My Binaltech Skids and Binaltech Broadblast should be delivered today.
Yeah. I broke down and bought the Binaltech version of Skids based on seeing Evebird's at work. Definitely nicer than the Hasbro versio with the paint flame deco.
Now there was that time when I was buying the Binaltech version of each figure but after Grimlock it just got to be too expensive. I decided at that time to only buy the Binaltech versions of figures that were not going to be released here by Hasbro and I'm happy I have yellow Tracks and Vroom-Vroom (the red Meister). Broadblast will probably never be released here by Hasbro so I picked him up due to this.
At least hope he won't be.
I mean, the Scion mold will probably get a repaint but I don't now if the Broadcast character would be it. I'm thinking even Hasbro realizes that doing a slightly retooled head and perhaps a few other minor changes to the mold will produce an Alternator Ironhide.
Unfortunately, with Takara-Tomy getting more distant from TF crap, I doubt we'll ever get Binaltech Wildrider now too.
Yeah, I eventually came to the conclusion that I'd only get the BTs of the characters who were on the Ark with Prime.
I proceeded to screw that up two weeks later by getting Smokescreen GT and Dead End. Now, I'm thinking I might get all of them eventually. I just wish they were making a Mirage BT.
They arrived!
Broadblast's box art on the back is awesome!
Is Mirage only being released as an Alternator?
Magic Eight Ball says: "Unlikely!"
Ever since Ginrai and Black Convoy got canceled there's no reports of any new BT releases from Takara. And Mirage is supposed to show up in June, so you'd think there would at least be some indication by now.
