New Binaltechs

  TOY Binaltech BT-06 Variant and BT09 - New imports

   After releasing the Binaltech BT-06 Tracks featuring Chevrolet Corvette in bright yellow a couple of months ago, Takara ships a blue-colored variant of Tracks. The Binaltech BT-06 vehicle is based on the top of the line 2004 Corvette Z06 which sports a 5.7L V8 rated at 350hp under the hood. Manufactured with a mix of plastic and die-cast metal, the bulk of the BT-06 car body is made of metal and feels weighty when handled in the palm of one's paw. Pricing is set at US$53.
   Also in stock today, the Binaltech BT-09 Swindle featuring Jeep Wrangler which is painted a marigold yellow. Similar to previous Binaltechs, the doors open, the wheels move, and the steering wheel rotates.

  All preorders for both toys are shipping today and new orders are welcome.

  ETC General Updates

   Due to a shipping delay, the remainder of this week's new imports are now expected next week. Please note that we're waiting for news on the rest of our Kasumi Xbox bundles but we will update customers who preordered by early next week.
   Preorders for the import PSP were closed this past weekend due to reports from Japanese suppliers concerning shortages at the launch. Demand has been strong and with the PSP only being released in Japan on Dec 12 (no other Asian territory will participate), supplies are expected to be tiny.
