Ditto. Clever clever quip. :P


Haha. Thanks. I guess this could ultimately pave the way for a whole shoe themed franchise of Transformers.

Shoeperion
Omega Shoepreme

And a less popular Sandalstorm.

Much as I enjoyed the "Soundwave Shoeperior" and the follow-up quip "Omega Shoepreme", I'm going to have to cancel my Soundwave order and go with the set of Megatron...for now. If Megatron is out then you know that Prime can't be far behind. The red, blue and grey will be showing up any time now.
Does anyone else think that the black/grey balance on the Megatron shoe is a little out of whack compared to the picture on the box. I think it's actually better that way but then I'm partial to black anyway.

These are really cool I’d love a pair of Soundwaves, but of course they don’t come in women's sizes and if they did I'm sure all we'd get are some pink and white Arcee versions. Why is transformers apparel always so one sided?

So cheat. Go to the mens shoe dept. and wait until nobody is looking and quickly slip a foot into something that looks close to your size and adjust up or down from there. Then jot down the number for that shoe. That's how my ex-wife found out she can wear a size 8 1/2 - 9 mens hiking boot. They've held up better for her than what the womens hiking boots have. If you want Soundwave, I say go for it.

Hadn't heard anything about them making a Prime set. I was just giving in to wishful thinking and figuring that it would be a logical conclusion what with the Meagtron set being released. You rarely see one without the other. I'm just being hopeful.

Does this mean I can look forward to a Michael Johnson version of the Bumblebee shoe (the yellow portion gold chromed, the soles more of a bluish gray) called the Goldbug?
If so, hook me up with size 11.5 US, s'il vous plait.
(Pretty s'il vous plait, with cerises on top?)

I'm also digging the Soundwave.
I'd really tear up a dance floor if someone made a Fortress Maximus shoe (no, really. "Size 90", according to Spike), or made Heelys based on the Throttlebots and Battlechargers.

I don't care how cool a pair of shoes looks, for $120.00 they better walk my ass to wherever I'm going all by themselves. :P
So much for MY Soundwave order!

Still, a little less than the cost of Jordans.

Thanks for the link RD. Good pix. I really want a pair of SWs, but Comic-con is fast approaching & i need to save. Might buy the Shout factory Matrix set dvd & other stuff. Couple more movies i wanna see this summer too.

Cheaper than what I usually pay for new balances. Isn't this the going price for sneakers any way? I hope they come in widths.

These shoes release on July 10th.

Unfortunately, there are already mass lines at the three U.S. locations these are releasing (Footlocker "House of Hoops" in NYC, LA, and CHI).

Prices on eBay are varying from $250 (Bumblebee and Soundwave) to $300 (Megatron)

Hopefully prices go down to around $180-220 once the initial release is over.

I can't wait to see someone in the NBA wearing these next season. You just got dunked on by Megatron fool!!

And sign me up once the hype dies down a little along with the price gouging on ebay. Cheapest for the Megs or the Soundwaves I can find is $229 in a size 10.5
Step up and get beat, by four doors and a baby seat.
