My Binaltech Collection

My Binaltech Collection

The Binaltech series is a line of Transformers that started in late 2003. The toys in this series transform into fully-licensed, 1:24-scale accurate representations of real cars from automobile manufacturers around the globe, complete with opening doors, hoods, trunks, plus "realistic" open driver/passenger compartments. Currently, the series consist of the following, and it looks very likely to be continued due to a surge in popularity following the Transformer movie.

I bought the above set from a local collector who was selling it at a discounted rate as he had to make space for his other collections. In fact, there was another collector who was enquiring about the set the same time as me, though I must admit I acted pretty fast in clinching the deal once I saw that the boxes were in very good condition. I'm currently short of BT-17 and BT-18 (may have to pay a princely sum to acquire them), as well as the soon-to-be released BT-21 and BT-22, to complete the entire set.
