At the end of January we reported here that Toys "R" Us exclusive Commemorative G1 Soundwave would be released in Canada in March. Now we are sorry to report that that has since changed. Now both Paradigm-Shift Prime and RHansen of Cybertron.ca have reported that the release date has changed in Toys "R" Us computers. The shipping date has changed to mid April which means the figure should be Toys "R" Us on shelves by May.

What about here in America? Is Soundwave on shelves yet, because I've been wanting to go into TRU lately and try to pick it up.

It has not shown up near me, but there have been sighting for awhile now.

It takes a long time to get the stuff up here on the sleds, and the huskies get tired after days of trekking through the snow. That's why we get it late.

Ya those Alpha Dog teams aren't what they use to be.

Thanks for your compassion Bumblezzz. To be honest, I'm not all that excited for Soundwave. I have the original, Takara re-issue and Soundblaster. Seeing as Music Label Soundwave is comming out around the same time, I'll be saving my coin for that.

It will probably get cancelled in the end because the production run on the item in China is already shut down. If nothing is in stock now then we will never see it unless stock is shipped north from the US. Typical HASBRO. Just like any government in the world. Makes all kinds of promises and never delivers the goods.

The shipping date has changed to mid April which means the figure should be Toys "R" Us shelves in Quebec sometime in mid-July. The bilingual huskies always take their time.

I herd he's out in the US, but I don't believe it.

I've been without a computer for a couple days, but so far from the recaps that I'm doing in past posts, I'm going to Aulstralia and Canada to collect missing bots.
