I almost bought one, when I realized it ran off of standard batteries.

Then I passed.

Neat as it may look,..meh?

Agreed. Sonicwave (Sonic White + Soundwave = Sonicwave) doesn't have the Soundwave fell to it.

What kind of features?

You know upgrade it's sound since I heard the toy had too much bass in it. Also I'd like to see the Shoulder Cannon become the speakers of some kind. You know those are only ideas, but I'd like that to happen.

The shoulder cannon speaker sounds pretty cool.

WOW! Ironhide and Ratchet! I do however wish the TFC line was still alive for the simple fact that Takara seemed to go that little extra mile for some of those releases. For example, Megatron's extra bits, Bumblebee's remolded face, Starscream's cartoon coloration, Insecticon's energon cubes. I would like to have seen tooled faces or even face stickers for these two. Don't get me wrong, I'm stoked and I'll definitely be buying them. I WILL certainly miss the extra mile though. Eh, we're months away yet. Here's to hoping they surprise me.

Fianlly Ratchet and Ironhide get reissued(again). I am buying them for sure!

News Credits: 20 · Fri Aug 24, 2007 11:20 am

So excitement got the better of me and I pre-ordered them sight unseen. Sheesh, I'm sick.

Fri Aug 24, 2007 11:25 am

Thanx for the update!

I pre-orderd R & Ihd. I was pricing them on eBay last nite and couldn't find anything I wanted in the price I wanted. But this is prefect!

WhooHoo for G1.

Finally, a non-yellowed Ratchet and an Ironhide that won't have screwed up stickers.

How do you order from e-Hobby. I use to buy from them all the time. Now when I send them an email I don't get any response? Have they stopped selling to North America?

Fri Aug 24, 2007 12:08 pm

Those next encore reissues - awesome!

I am loving this line so much just for the fact that I am going to be getting them all numbered from the start.

re: e-hobby - they do not respond to regular emails, as their english is keekt! You need to email them your order in a specific format, including your credit card details. This is a little dodgy yes, but you send the emails in 2 parts. the first one has 1234-5678-xxxx-xxxx, and the second has xxxx-xxxx-8765-4321 - so your details cannot be compromised by somone getting a hold of one of the parts of the email (packet sniffing etc). I have the details at home. Will be home in a while.

Do you spend more time on the BBTS site during the week than you do in Church?

It's a broken value system and one day soon, our comeuppance will come.

I have the email format, I have ordered from them many times in the past. I recently sent several email orders for Encore Optimus, Encore Megatron, and BT-18 and never had any reply. Has anyone had any luck ordering from them recently? I heard that the one person who spoke english there left.

What is this Church that you speak of?

And here's to hoping for Scorponok and Jazz!

Didn't think so many people would be excited about our headless friends

I preordered them already. Very pleased

I have never owned Ratchet, so this will be cool. I've got a previous version of an E-Hobby Ironhide, though...

Still great news though.

Sunnuvabitch, I like that Soundblaster...but I really don't need a 2nd Transforming mp3 player at 95USD without bonus features...Now, if he had a new head and was "Broadcast" and in red's, yellows and greys...

Or just make a music label boombox with built in slim cd player and mp3 reader...

Fri Aug 24, 2007 2:34 pm

I am thinking about getting Ratchet or Ironhide. Which one do I get. I had Ratchet as a kid, but I prefer Ironhide's colors.

GetterDragun wrote:Wow! Ironhinde and Ratchet! Awesome!

Agreed. I was ignoring Encore since they were rehashing with the first 4 but I want Ironhide and Ratchet all minty!

Soundblaster looks nice but since I have bought (and am still waiting for) Bluewave, I do not need.
