Our friends over at TF08.net have posted a slew of new pictures showing off the finer points of the mold and how it looks next to Black Convoy. They also show a few images of the box in the classic style of the BinalTech style box as well as a quick shot of the instructions.

Weather you think this mold has been done too many times, or you think it looks like a must have to add to your collection, feel free to converse about it by clicking the DISCUSS button above.

To check out all of the pictures, click here. If you're a dial up user you might want to go make a sandwich while all of the pictures load of this figure due out in January.

Hell, i've got one Alternator Prime plus 2 spare in a box and a junker floating around. But this is the BT version in the BT packaging. Can't have my BT collection not be complete!

I already have two Alternator Primes and two Alternator Nemesis Primes, not to mentions it's my least favorite mold of that line. The diecast isn't that important to me, other than that it doesn't look they added any paint apps that I couldn't just do myself with a bottle of Testors. Have to pass on this one.

I'm going to buy the hell out of this.

Take that any way you want.

Isn't the Dodge Ram SRT-10 out of production? Just an interesting thought.

I wish I didn't open that link, now I want one.

Wowee. That really looks like pure win. I never got into Alt/Bin, maybe I will now

I might copy the paint apps onto my Alt but I still think this mold sucks. His belly plate covers his thighs and he has the poseability of Classics Jetfire.

That's not Black Convoy. That's Nemesis Prime. Look at the windows, they're red. Black Convoy has clear windows with no color.

This baby is reeking with quality workmanship.

The first time i saw paintings on the dash. Is this the only Binaltech with paintings on dash?

But i'm still gonna pass.

Gonna save up for Alternity.

Jesus, I thought I changed that. I remember looking at the side by sides thinking " That can't be Black Convoy because of the sheen. There's no shine to the hood, just a mat blurr. "

Okidokie I will try to do a comparison of BT-22 & BT-17 (when BBTS gets stock in of course), plus a mini gallery of them. Since I just recently packed away my Alternators/KPs, I will not include Alt. Prime or KP Convoy in the review, I will leave the opportunities to other better reviewers.

I don't think that BT-22 or BT-17 could be compared with either Alt. Prime or Alt. Nemesis SDCC since the first are die-cast and the second are plastic (as is KP Convoy shamefully).

I'll be eager to see that gallery as it would be a world first and exclusive to Seibertron. yeee haaaa :APPLAUSE:
