they run these crazy deals on Binaltech toys too.

Binaltech is the Japanese version of the Alternator. The biggest diff? BT's are diecast metal. The paint applications on them are ridiculous. On most of the BT toys, they're actually using factory paint codes.

Now I must switch from Alternators to Binaltech.

I've considered doing the BT thing, but I can't ... It's way too pricey. 10 alts = $200, 10 BT's = $500. That extra $300 could be used towards other lines.

BUT



BUT

there are BT's coming that the US aren't going to see. These are a part of a special series with scaled female drivers.
