Added link to the (Alternity species), which is a near-orphaned page that needs more visibility. Anyone wanting to better integrate things can do so. I kept the "Alterenergy" link, but it's awkward... |

| This article is about the 2009—2010 Japanese toyline. For the species of Transformer, see Alternity (species). |
Transformers: Alternity is a toyline started by TakaraTomy in 2009. It is the successor to the Binaltech toyline. It features licensed vehicle alternate modes in its toys, as well as a mixture of plastic and die-cast metal. Toys are scaled down from their previous Binaltech/Alternators proportions, now being 1:32 scale rather than 1:24, and roughly equivalent in size to the mainline "deluxe" size class.
Fiction
Like Binaltech, Alternity's continuity is established by pack-in fiction.
