Oh, all of mine have been opened, put on display for several months, and put back into their boxes because I needed the shelf space for other newer toys.

Re: Alternators Mirage: new in package

I'm pretty restrained in Alt/BT series but still I ended up with 15 including 2 exclusives (Nemesis Prime + "clear" Mirage)

Re: Alternators Mirage: new in package

I would say $40 is a fair price. I always liked the Corvette mold and Tracks is the best of the bunch. I've been pondering selling some of mine off (well at least Prime and Nemesis Prime) because I never transform them and they take up a lot of space.

Re: Alternators Mirage: new in package

I think I'm one of the few that didn't really get sucked into the Alt/BT craze. I haven't had the urge to pick up more since a lot of them don't look very good in robot mode imo, which I display most of my collection in.

I decided to pick up both Jazz and Shockblast from a board member some time ago, but turns out Jazz's hood was yellowing so I sold it off. Then I decided to pick up Smokescreen after looking through seibertron's galleries to see which ones I liked. A few months ago I decided to seek out Prowl and Hound as well, but was sort of disappointed in them (both look great in alt mode but not so good in robot mode).

I'm not extremely interested in the line, but one day I would like to pick up a Ravage 2.0 and 'try' at least one BT (probably Jazz to replace the Jazz I sold).

After some calculation you will spend as much here, maybe more due to the shipping.
what you can do is check Ebay for Alternator lot and binaltech lot
