Update: Oct 01 2004 NCS opened up preorders for the Binaltech BT-08 all the way back in April of this year. After a swap-around with BT-07 and many months, Takara and Mazda's collaboration finally reaches market after being released earlier this week in Japan. Autobot lieutenant Meister (aka Jazz) serves as the Transformer model and changes from bulky, barrel-chested bot to sleek 2004 model Mazda RX-08. Similar to previous Binaltech toys, the hood and trunk both pop open and the tires roll and rotate in various directions. A detailed transformation guide also walks players through the process of turning Meister into a car. The default color for the Binaltech BT-08 preorder was white but there's also equal quantities of a wine-red variant that's billed in the pamphlet as a clone of Meister named Zoom-Zoom. The booklet mentions that Meister teaches Zoom-Zoom the art of dancing and singing from time to time. Since there are two colors in equal quantity for this particular Binaltech, we'll contact all customers by email today to reconfirm color preference. Please be advised that we will try to give everyone their first color choice from our stock and ship this afternoon. View a larger photo of this item.
