Update: October 21, 2005
The debut of the Transformers Binaltech Asterisk series features the mighty Alert who changes from robot to Subaru Impreza WRX in a black/white police car skin with lights on top. To fit in with the law enforcement theme, a miniature police girl figure named AI is included in the package for added effect. AI carries a pointer in her left hand and a citation pad in her right paw. She wears a police uniform to connote authority. The scale of Alert is 1:24 and the toy has an acceptable paint job. There's some color bleed in the shoulder area and slightly below the chest but otherwise, it's a good piece of work. When Alert shifts into police car mode, the doors open up to allow AI to sit within. Alert's chest becomes the front hood of he car while the torso becomes the chassis. Finally, the legs tuck and fold to become the back trunk and rear lights. To indicate that Alert in police car mode is indeed a speedy vehicle, there's a spoiler on top of the trunk. Preorders ship today, new orders are welcome. View the back of the box and photos on the main NCS site.
