Binaltech *ASTERISK*.

Yes, *Asterisk*.

At first glance it's a seemingly needless line of repainted Binaltech/Alternators, but this time they come with scale PVC figures of non-robot characters, like Junko and AI from Car Robots - just the right size to actually SIT INSIDE the 'bots!

OK, so we're owed the Sunstreak repaint - but there's a third one already released:

The Skids mold, with someone called Lumina. Who's Lumina?

Lumina, or Illumina (short: Mina), she is based on the girl from TF: Victory

I'm waiting for BT* Minerva, with hopefully by then a Fembot mold :D

note: Hasbro will be releasing Sunstreaker, car mode has black racing stripes, robot mode has a lot more grey and red, which makes him ugly IMO

With any luck it'll be the Mazda RX8 with sirens and a different head. My wife always said that the Mazda car looked feminine.

I doubt that any BT* will get a different head from the BT version, at most a tiny bit of remolding in car mode maybe (like Alert)

Meister feminine? if 'she' would have been a female bodybuilder yes LOL

they did it with swindle and ravage, so it's very possible they'll do it

Scroll to the bottom and you'll see why this might be the newest BT* - assuming Melissa is from some TF anime...

I think Brend told me that Melissa grants Convoy special powers when she kisses him, hence him being 'Kiss Convoy'

It's called "Kiss Players" or somesuch. It's a radio-show tie-in. The anime style floosey gives them magical powers or some guff, like what Hound said.

The next one is going to be Mirage redecoed as Rodimus, complete with bondage whore.
Grrr. Argh.

A few years ago, I was watching Tetsuo II: Body Hammer, and my friend came in, watched for a few minutes and said: "You know, we should have nuked Japan harder." At the time, I assumed he was being a racist ass.

But "Kiss Players" makes me suspect he may have been right all along.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!
