RichterX Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 It is looking like a kind of crappy alternator... how good is the posability?
Solscud007 Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Ok so we need to get our hands on the prototype and recast that cannon. So what was this I hear they were going to call him OVerdrive? Notice the Tracks transformation style? Also Why red? I kinda wanted yellow or gunmetal grey
Majestic Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 I'm having a bitch of a time trying to find white Jazz/Meister in the Bay Area, CA. Any bay area folks know where to find?
Solscud007 Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 I just got one. hehe. Here is a pic of my custom window/screen for the box. as some people on anime punch were complaining. About the lack of a window. easy custom. Transparency sheet, Fold, trim, tape, done!!!
Radd Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 It is looking like a kind of crappy alternator... how good is the posability? Wind Charger? I gotta disagree, he looks like one of the better designs to me. Have you seen the other pictures posted?
Solscud007 Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 If you look closely it really looks like Tracks. Look at the feet, legs and other similarities. like the Doors are at the side and what not.
RichterX Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Â It is looking like a kind of crappy alternator... how good is the posability? Wind Charger? I gotta disagree, he looks like one of the better designs to me. Have you seen the other pictures posted? The Binaltech version looks nice, but the Alternator, the gun really bothers me about it... Does the Alternator have the conectors for the gun barrel? probably a recast of that piece could be done and just be attached to the rest. It face sculpt looks nothing like Windcharger, with Dead end it didn't bother me that much because the car mode was nice, I really don't care about the care mode of this one. I think this is an Alternator I will be skiping
RichterX Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Just think of the S2000 as overdrive. I never had any of the Autobots car when I was a kid, I am buying them more about the G1 cartoon nostalgia, Overdrive wasn't in the cartoon, that is why I have no care about the character, if it resembled Windcharger face I would probably get it but... So far I don't like the S2000 car mode, but still there it is possible I have a change of heart when I actually see it in the store The ones I am waiting and for sure getting when I see in them my local Walmart are Jazz (Meister) and Grimlock
Solscud007 Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Have you noticed that Meister is the only Alt/BT with full windows? Smokescreen and Silverstreak dont have front door windows. Tracks and Sideswipe nor Deadend does.
Skull 0ne Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Recast cannons yahhh I'd like at least six! Know I won't have to open my binatechs. Now if some one would recast windchargers sniper barrel.... hhhaaaa maybe......
eriku Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Have you noticed that Meister is the only Alt/BT with full windows? Smokescreen and Silverstreak dont have front door windows. Tracks and Sideswipe nor Deadend does. Yeah, that was one of the first things I noticed. I almost like the doors better without windows though. Another Bin/Alt "first" I noticed was the rear-view mirror on Tracks. Too bad it doesn't actually have a reflective surface.
Skull 0ne Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 So..... when are they going to release the wheelie alternator What car do you think it will be.

My Smokescreen (modified version, has a rear view mirror)
RichterX Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 I don't think you modifications count for the generalc Alternator population...
1 VF-1 2NV Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Nice display. Are they all BT or Alt or a combo of both???
VF-0S FAN Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Thanks . They are all Binaltechs and Masterpiece Convoy by Takara. I work so I can afford collector items for adults
Radd Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Oh...so they removed the gun barrel for the Alternators version of Wind Charger/Overdrive? Lame. Very lame. I thought they just didn't picture it on the box. I noticed on..the Meister box I think it was they had him transformed wrong in the Photo, or pieces were missing or something.
eriku Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Thanks . They are all Binaltechs and Masterpiece Convoy by Takara. I work so I can afford collector items for adults Nice display! And thanks for wearing clothes while you shot those pics...especially in the last one.
Deadzone Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 So I was wondering if I should get the BT Meister or the Alternator Meister. The only thing with getting the BT is I don't want paint chipping off the damn thing after transforming it just a couple of times. Does anybody know if the paint chipping happens like in the smokescreens. Feedback would be appreciated.
VF-1Guy Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Majestic: I have not found the Alternator Tracks or Meister in the Bay Area yet. I saw quite a few Hounds and Silverstreaks last week. I've only seen 2 Dead Ends. Great looking collection VF-0S FAN. The cabinet makes the BTs look nice and classy. A useful trick is to take the pictures at 30 or 45 degrees off center. This will avoid the flash glare since it will bounce off in the opposite direction. Continuing with the catch-all nature of my post, I would interested in at least 2 gray cannons.
