Alfes 2010 has been a busy guy today! He's now uploaded a gallery of Takara's DSM DD-09 Human Alliance Soundwave with Dylan Gould and Laserbeak. The full gallery can be view by clicking here.
Thats just sad. Between the lack of a proper foot/feet assembly and that radically smaller size compared to other HA's, I'm gonna have to keep on walking.
I really really REALLY want to like this thing. I'll forgive the lack of the paint-that's par for the course these days. I MIGHT be okay with the legs if there weren't any parts to make them from. But the entire car is on his shoulders! Plus his head sculpt is weird-the visor seems too low on his face.
man that thing just gets worse and worse the more i see it, it sucks as soundwave and as a figure. This line has officially shown that hasbro is losing it and needs to reboot the franchise ASAP.
Guess Ill be checking out TJ Maxx a couple of months from now and see if I can get it for $10. Overall, really disappointed with DOTM toys. All of them are comparably smaller than the first two movie's figures (from what I have seen), the plastics are softer and the paint jobs suck.
I still like the bot mode, but like others, his car mode is nothing without the paint. Next to HA Jazz and EVEN Sideswipe (who's always in car mode here...) he's going to look weird. And I like Laserbeak even less than before.
I'll still be getting them eventually, but he'll be saying in bot mode most likely, and no idea about Laserbeak yet. We just got some deluze Laserbeaks over here. I might see if I can bring one home sometime. Maybe the repaint will surface soon (unless I missed it?) so I can pick between them.
