Well i just realised i ordered a BT Grimlock off of Ebay instead of an Alt Grimlock, is there much difference in the two? Im kinda trying to keep my collection all the same, Should i return it? Or is anyone looking for a BT grimlock and Wheeljack?

Alt's are made of plastic and BT's are made of diecast. I have both and find the Alt version more poseable than the BT.

I am looking for a BT Wheeljack, do you have one for sale?

I also find Alts are more poseable (due to less heavier parts).
BTs tend to fall over a lot easier than Alts.
But BTs are cool none the less.

I haven't gotten them yet, if i do ill see If ill sell him. Perfer MISB i guess right?

Yeah i think i'd like the plastics ones better, but i got a pretty decent deal on these i gotta find a Alt Grimlock tho pretty tough to find

I have a few MISB Alt Grimlock...so let me if you decided not to keep the BT Wheeljack and we can work out a deal.

I like the BT better due to their metal parts. The heaviness makes them feel more real. like a die-cast model car. How much are you selling it for? i may want to by it.

Binaltechs were cool but not for twice to three times the price of an alternator :P

Stoneclaw · 02-18-2008, 02:53 AM

i just wanna break even on them, i think i paid 19 bucks for each, still havent gotten them yet

Sound like you got one of the KO, because there is no way a Binaltech Grimlock would sell for $19.

That is just too good to be true

it does sound that way. $19 for an alternator i can understand. but $19 for a BT,,,,something is fishy. either you are on lucky SOB or you just bought some fakes.

then again, i've never heard of KO binaltech on the free market. and i know the KO market very well.
