Yeah, and remember Hasbro took a few liberties with Thundercracker's deco, too. I figured they'd go with the G1 classic coloring though. Guess they feel at liberty to do what they like, since he was never named in G1 anyway. Makes me wonder though, if this is a hint that their Soundwave release may end up lookin a bit less G1 accurate than Takara's though in coloring/markings. Others before have mentioned concerns as to his final coloring (a la mp10's brighter blue, etc). Did they just show the Takara mp13 image at the panel?

AAAAAAWESOOOOOME!!!!!!!!!

Aside from the yellow visor and maybe darker chest window, Soundwave barely looks any different from the Takara version. Well done, Hasbro, well done! :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE:

And, great gooey gumdrops, Acid Storm looks sa-weet! A nice halfway point compromise between his show deco and Universe toy deco. 8)

Acid Storm: Oh god, they're really making it. Well, at least the deco's stylish.

Soundwave: Beautiful. I will claim it and keep it locked away forever, alongside my TRU Prime. Forever will I have these great characters for posterity. Five cassettes is a hell of an included accessory, but I hope we get the Megatron pistol with this one too.

Is Ravage actually smaller than the other minions in cassette mode, or are those pics misleading? From everything I've seen, they're the same size, but those pics threw me off.

Bummed by the yellow visor, but it's not the worst thing in the world. What I'm really concerned about is the matte grey color he seems to have. I can see Hasbro skimping on the silver paint, so I'm interested to see additional pics confirming this either way.

Acid Storm looks pretty good, outside of the green eyes (and mis-transformed wings)... looks like his head is getting swapped with an alt mode Thundercracker! Just hope an MP-11 molded Skywarp's in the pipeline, and my Seeker army will be close to completion (barring the coneheads, of course)!

:CON:
Looking for:
-Classics Mirage
-Universe Smokscreen

In MISB/MOSC or complete/like new condition. PM me to sell or trade!

Why did they have to make the paintjob so Hasbroish ? Couldnt they just keep it G1 like everything else from the MP line ?

I impulse bought Takara's Soundwave .... seems like a poor choice since this'll be cheaper AND comes with all the cassettes. Still ... yellow eyes? Uh, this is cartoon based, Hasbro. Of course yellow eyes shouldn't be a deal breaker when the alternative's so pricy.
Wanted:
City Commander's head (KO or original)
Henkei Hot Rod's bio card
Universe Ironhide / Ratchet's gun/blade attachment
