Transformers Binaltech Asterisk 03 Broadblast featuring Toyota bB meets Lumina. This item is brand new and factory sealed. This item was only available in Japan via the Binaltech Asterisk series by Takara. Don't pass your chance to own this RARE and EXCLUSIVE product.
Broadblast is a Toyota bB styled after the popular Transformers G1 series AM/FM stereo cassette player, Broadcast (better known in the US as Blaster), and his name is a combination of his Japanese and US names. This is a redeco of Binaltech 16 Skids as another Toyota bB, except Broadblast exemplifies the customization that the Toyota bB encourages in their drivers/consumers. If you know anything about Blaster's personality in the original Transformers cartoon series, you will understand why Takara picked Blaster as the character to be reimagined into a Toyota bB. As part of BTA series, Broadblast comes with a female driver figurine based on an anime character. Broadblast comes with Lumina, a character from the Japanese cartoon series, Transformers: Victory. Broadblast also sports a clean metallic silver coat and he also sports his original deco of red and yellow in robot mode, while the vanity plate reads "bRBL".
BTA-03 Binaltech Broadblast features:
- Die-cast with metallic finish
- Detailed interior
- Doors, hood and trunk open and close
- Engine transforms into a gun
- Lumina, figurine with multiple parts
- Flame deco stickers
- Special Profile card
- 1:24 Scale
Broadblast is best known as being the counterpart of the Decepticon, Soundwave, in the original Transformers series. Both he and Soundwave transformed into an electronic device that could play cassettes, except Soundwave was the first to have the ability to release cassettes that transformed. Broadblast eventually gained the ability to release cassettes when Transformers: The Movie debuted in the theatres. As an AM/FM stereo cassette player, he can perform as a deck, plus receive radio signals on a variety of frequencies. Acting as the Autobot communications center, he can transmit signals within a 4,000 mile radius. Blaster also carried four cassette cassette warriors within his deck (Steeljaw, Ramhorn, Rewind and Eject) to counter Soundwave's cassette warriors.
