Got both sets of Data disc. Thanks

If the Masterpiece editions weren't on the horizon, I'd have lots more critical to say about these things. BUT, since there are articulated, very G1 editions on the way... these wind up being very fun alternate versions. With the spring loaded gimmick, I know they'll be little bricks. No expectations there.

My only real complaint is that Rumble and Frenzy don't resemble their G1 counterparts much... (looking at their chests, arms, legs, etc.) and with the sides of their heads being different colors — they really could pass for just about ANY other character or minicon. If you showed them to me as a prototype (without the color), I wouldn't have even been able to identify them.

Did anyone get theirs yet? I opened Soundwave and I don't see his handcannon. Got the shoulder cannon and Laserbeak, though.

Guess you didn't get the memo.

He doesn't come with one, other than the shoulder cannon. The rifle seen on the package is a preproduction prototype of Soundwave using what appears to be G1 Optimus's ion cannon as a stand in until they could come up with one. Seeing that they never figured it out...

Ended up picking up Soundwave also. Shipped yesterday and will be delivered today!

Thanks for the heads up. That kinda blows, as the figure would look fantastic with a decent hand cannon and the gun is still featured in the instructions. I'll have to see if there's a DotM toy who needs relieved of a non-mechtech weapon, or if iGear's weapon box has anything accurate.

I'm just gunna use the Deluxe's rifle and see what happens. I may replace his shoulder cannon with the Deluxe's as well and see how that looks.

I only get a $60 dollar allowance every month and so I will have to wait until after Christmas to get these. I have gone way past my budget lately. So many figures! I might see I can get these for Christmas. SW55
