Hey check out this web site of the Transformers Alternator
http://www.transformerland.com/trans...ternators.html
They been out for a while. Check out the detail of the jeep. That looks cool. I notice that even the xB's have a full interior when in auto mode. Can't wait to see them.

Just to fill you guys in because i am an UBER transformers geek. The Alternators Transformers, which are super detailed car models that transform into fully posable robots, are 24.99 at Walmart, and are 19.99 at my Military Exchange. The xB (actually bB transformers are made in japan) will be out in time for Christmas. they are already in Japan (takara version a lot nicer) in most colors, but the american version Alternator (hasbro) is coming out in a blue version (Autobot) and later in a silver color (decepticon) the decepticon version will be released usually 3 months after the initial release. (its the way that they release all of their models. either the autobot or decepticon comes out first, and then 3 months later the other version comes out) They will be the same robot, just different colors, and they will rebadge them with either Autobot or Decepticon. but other than that, they are the same.
The Alternators line is an extrmely collectible line of transformers, and most are snagged up on the release day by those damn Collector Hobby Store guys, and will be resold there for twice (or more) the price.
Skids (the autobot, blue version) has a completely detailed, to scale interior, engine, exhaust, exterior, even engine. working doors and hood. rubber wheels, metal body. The engine is removable and becomes the weapon. (like all in the alternators line)
Hoover dam, my nerd is showing again...

Check them out!! Almost $50 each 
I haven't played with any Transformers since I was a kid so I was afraid that I was going to break them the first couple of times I transformed them... No need to worry though, they are pretty damn well made(they'd better be for $50 each!!).

most of those rumors are horrendous. i cruise the .jp websites for transformers to see what Japan has, msot of the time if it is in japan, we will most likely get them in the states at some time. (generally) but then, if we don't i just go over to japan and get them over there...sometimes living on guam has its perks. TRUE JDM, and Japan stuff.
