Good a Ravage Where I don't need to buy another Soundwave but why Lazerbeak and not something else even Buzzsaw would of been a better choice. I'm definately getting Rewind and Eject though I've been wanting them for ages. :grin:

The henkei minibots look good but i'll take the universe versions instead.

Only one thing though, why Laserbeak in the set? They should include Ratbat. Laserbeak is already included with the re-issue of Soundwave.

Not with Encore Soundwave.

Maybe not with Encore Soundwave, but Laserbeak was with Classics Soundwave (which was technically a repaint of Soundblaster, which in turn was a slight retool of Soundwave). This is the one I mentioned before, as being why I'd pass on the cassettes. I wouldn't mind the Autobot tapes (especially if I can still find a Transformers Collection 21 Broadcast), but I don't want to double up on Laserbeak and Ravage.

Just pointing out why a Japanese company would be releasing a figure that recently got released in America. But yeah, more Frenzy, Rumble and Ramhorn please.

I wonder if the tapes will include anything new, like the other Encore figures.

Let's be honest here,..this is a friggen disappointment.

First off, Eject and Rewind should have been made available with either Blaster or Twincast long back.

Second, packing in Laserbeak and Ravage is really, really, really stupid. It's just...honestly? It's the kind of move I would expect Hasbro to do in a Star Wars line.

Frenzy, Rumble, Ramhorn, etc...Get on the ball Tomy.

I got to agree. Ravage and Lazerbeak were not what I was hoping for. Are these the only three molds that they have left for the cassettes?

Good point. Still should have been Rumble & Frenzy though, IMO. Maybe with a second set like this? I can survive without Ratbat, though. If the Springer/Ratbat set at Target can hold out 2 or 3 weeks (when I have money again), I wouldn't mind grabbing it.
