I have Soundwave standing next to Classics white Magnus, and he's just a tad taller. Does anyone have PRID Megatron to compare? The last voyager I bought was Skyhammer from DOTM.

Soundwave also has a massively hollow torso, which Classics Optimus does not.

Excellent point, didn't think about that. I was just wondering how tall PRID Megs is against the Prime/Magnus mold.

If you mean PRiD molds, about the same. Prime is a bit taller at the head crest I think.

Prime Prime? Which one, FE or PRiD? Because, you know, Prime has four toylines.
I'll answer the question for you. Beast Hunters Optimus is taller than both of them.

No, no, I meant Classics Prime/Magnus. I want to know how PRID Megatron compares to Classics Optimus hight-wise.

Early FOC made me shout a word that sound exactly like that acronym. Bruticus and Jazz are the most thin, small, and hollow Transformers I ever owned. On the packaging on FOC Jazz, it's written "GUN INCLUDED" Like it's some incredible thing. They said the TFs got smaller in DOTM because of the Mechtechs.
Then we get FOC Jazz who not only he's the smallest deluxe ever, but the hollowest and lightest as well... and he come with a tiny tiny tiny gun. Were they mocking us? Also, that thing barely have any paint aps. As if Transformers were litterally melting away.
Then I openned my FOC voyager Soundwave.
...
My faith in Transformers have been restored.

He is a retool of Shockwave so size and mass aren't too much different. But, weapons aside, I was really amazed at the paint apps they put on him comparing to the early FOC waves and Prime figures. It's so much better. Although I'm still going to repaint him, I'd said Hasbro did a really good job. I also have an unopened FOC Kickback, he looks really nice in the box. Also bought BH Laserback for a friend, the package is so much thicker (you can say it's the way they pack it) and Laserback actually looks "bigger". Maybe people who opened Laserack can tell more. Let's just hope Hasbro keep it this way.
Oh, you're in for a treat when you open Kickback! I mentioned in another thread that it's hard to believe he comes from the same line as FoC Jazz. The different is incredible. If you didn't know better, you'd think they were different lines or even different classes.
This is exactly what I was saying and am afraid of. I hope Hasbro don't just give fans some treat to make them happy and then things went down hill (or back to normal) again.

I've noticed distribution has gotten a lot better lately too. All the recent waves have actually shown up in stores. I think Hasbro's head my have finally dislodged from it's ass.
