Masterpiece Soundwave & Metrolplex!

[TR0N]

Hmm looks like the master piece metroplex went on a diet compared to the G1 version.

Here's a pic of Soundwave with all the cassettes.  Maybe I shouldn't, but I'm going to assume that Hasbro is going to include the pile drivers that come with the Jp versions of Rumble & Frenzy!

I have the MP Soundwave and it is awesome!  I also have the cassettes on order.  I feel bad though hearing there will be a Hasbro release that comes with all the cassettes at half the cost I paid.

But then again I never saw MP Prime at TRU despite hunting hard for it so maybe it wasn't a bad idea.

Time will tell.

No kidding. While these things are *technically* sold in the US they are way easier to find as imports and sometimes the JP versions are better.

Offical pics of Soundwave & the gang are up, unfortunately, they're on FB, which is why I have an account for just such an occasion as some pics you can't see unless you have an account.

Looks like Frenzy & Rumble are keeping they're pistons or whatever you want to call them.  There's also pics of Acid Storm.

You can find them on Tformers as well http://tformers.com/ig.php?mode=album&dispsize=600&album=19606&start=0&sl=transformers-masterpiece-soundwave-and-acid

I was up playing Uncharted 3 for a while, so every now & then I'd get up & refresh the search for Soundwave at Tru.com.  I finally got too tired to stay up, so turned off the game, & checked one last time, & yowza, there it was!  I managed to snag him about 5 minutes before the orders went down!  The girl I talked to yesterday at my nearest Tru, said they probably won't have any for a few weeks, but, I'm not buying that. 

Theyre supposed to be limited to one per customer, to cut down on scalpers.  Though, I don't know if that'll stop someone from coming in with a Sombrero, & fake nose & glasses & mustache & buying another!  I actually thought about doing that as a joke since they kind of know me there.  *in a ridiculously fake voice* Yes, I would like to purchase a Soundwave Transformer.  Per chance, might you have any in stock?

THI!!! DO EEET

and film it! lol, so how is the actual sculpt of the whole thing? Does it measure up?

That's like the ideal toy that all of us hand in our heads when we were little.

Heh, can you speak like Soundwave?

[ParanoiaDragon]

Heh, can you speak like Soundwave?

Haha, yeah right!  Soundwave was done by Frank Welker.  It's basically the Dr. Claw voice with a sound effect added to it(I forget the name of the effect).  I couldn't come close to doing his voice.

As for the Soundwave figure, I don't have him yet, he should ship soon, so maybe I'll have him arrive early next week I hope!

I'm on the fence on buying some of these, I know that eventually my 6 year old will destroy them if I do
