Just thought I'd put up this interesting article about future TF Binaltech releases coming with drivers. tformers.com/article.php?sid=4809To some extent, the theme looks to be derived from the vintage Diaclone concept, however, from the looks of the pictures, the drivers look cartoonish. Assuming that the final figures look like that, it would be disappointing as the main strength of the vehicles lies in its realism in vehicle mode. I feel the drivers should share that same realism. But anyway, that's just me. I'm sure the a lot of TF collectors out there will welcome this new development. Cheers, Garvy |

Wala pa nga yatang official word from Takara so baka magbago. Oo nga, cool sana kung maglabas sila ng kicker figure na kakasya sa BT/Alts. |

Malvs,
Don't you think it would be cool if Takara takes the basic design of the old miniature diaclone drivers and made them to scale for the BT/Alt lines? During the Diaclone run, there were 3 types of drivers so there could be a minimum of 3 variations. Color scheme wise, they could go wild! That would be a great tribute to Diaclone, a line which they also own!
Now that I think of it, if Takara did those drivers using the Microman body, that too would be fantastic!

Even if they are well articulated, they look too cartoonish. With luck, Takara may improve upon these to make them more realistic. |

Not exactly bonus siya, BTAs will be 500 yen more expensive then regular BTs. Considering that it can be seen that they are just straight repaints. Alert's head looks exactly like Smokescreen, and Broadblaster looks exactly like Skids, Takara should have at least made them free. The only "remold" is additional blinker lights for Alert. |

Somehow, I had this funny feeling that they're planning an anime for the BT's after seing the character designs of the drivers...  |

does takara have any plans of releasing BT bumblebee in the future? They already planned for a BT Bumblebee, unfortunately, VW will not allow them to use the New Beetle design.  For more info, click here. SGP |
