Hi guys, been a slow day at work again , so had loads of time to think about these questions.

1. Where in the UK can I buy the reissue of G1 Soundwave (which comes with 3 cassettes?)
2. Will the movie Optimus voice changer helmet and big rig blaster fit an adults head/arm?
3. Is the voyager class (or is it leader class) version of movie Prime available in the UK yet, a friend of mine thought he was told it would be going for about £40

And lastly, has anyone got a complete Powermaster Optimus (i.e with all accessories) for sale/and or trade?

Muchos gracias

I can answer part of #2. The voice changer will fit an adult's head.

Thanks for the info, I'd forgot to ask, has it got a voice chip/module that makes you sound like Peter Cullen, or is it abit like the animated movie anniversary Prime, and doesn't sound like Peter Cullen?

It'll make YOU sound like a flanged thingy, I think. But it includes sound clips.

Warning, though, there are two versions - one sounds like Cullen, the other sounds like (I think) Chalk. On the lower left side, with the yellow panel, if it has a red strip saying something about 'sounds like the movie', it's Cullen. Otherwise, it's (I think) Chalk.

Hello, fello Briton!

1. Toys R Us. Not all of them but they're the only one doing him, as far as I remember.
2. Looks big enough to fit an adult. A lot of reviews on Youtube have the reviewer putting it on and they're usually adults.
3. The VOYAGER class isn't out here yet. The LEADER class is, at Argos, The Entertainer and a lot of other places for £40.

I am not aware of a Soundwave Re-issue that comes with three cassettes. He only comes with two that I know of.

Try Toyrus for Powermaster Prime!
The one in Bedford still hade one ore two last summer!
They shuld be able to get it to yours.

Yeah I think so too. Laserbeak and Ravage, as far as I remember. The mold is a repainted Soundblaster (which has a compartment for 2 tapes rather than 1) so I'm pretty sure its two.

Thanks for all the info everyone, I've got next monday off, so it looks like I'll be paying Toysrus a visit.

Quick reply/update, managed to get leader class Prime from Woolworths (£39.99) and the Optimus voice changer (£29.99) but the best thing was, every movie TF item instore is buy one get one half price, so I got the voice changer cheaper (about £15 off)

Now, once I find out if my arm will fit inside the big rig blaster, then I'll think about getting it (mind you, I have slender arms lol)

And on the Powermaster Prime front, I've managed to find a second hand one through a collector, for £22, no box, but is complete. Seeya

1: Soundwave is a TRu exclusive that comes with 2 cassettes. Laserbeak and Ravage.
2. Helmet fits adults heads perfectly, plenty of reviews I have read have noted the big rig blaster seems almost like it was made more for adult hands.
3. Robovision Prime is a Target exclusive both in the US and Australia, so whatever the UK equivalent of Target will carry the,

When you say complete does that inlude the God Bomber/Apex Bomber parts or are we talking about a loose vintage Hasbro one? The original western versions never got these but it was available in Japan as an upgrade to create the combined Super God Ginrai mode, which is kick ass. The Toys R Us reissue includes God Bomber as well as actual windows on the cab rather than the solid plastic version that I had as a kid and hands that retract for vehicle mode rather than the solid arms that leave the hand kibble showing. When I got my TRU version he was on clearance for £20, and if there are still some kicking around he's well worth it.

Nope, it's just Prime, which is what I'm after, not actually worried about the God Bomber parts

I may be getting the big rig blaster tomorrow, the only thing about it that I don't get is, in truck mode it's basically got a trailer connected and looks abit more like G1 cartoon prime (shortened nose) where as all the pics I've seen of movie Prime, he doesn't have a trailer. Does he actually have a trailer in the film?

Both of you need to go to the Disgruntled Brits thread and join in complaining about Hasblo.
