I really hope this isn't a glorified classics figure it better have gimmicks out asstronaut if its gonna cost over $50 for a deluxe class figure and that's to much looks like we are gonna be paying for the name and packaging with this mp.
Take a better look at the back of the calves. That is not just a "'pull down the legs" transform, it's a bit more complex than it looks on the surface.
Remember, Masterpiece Grimlock has BADSICALLY the same transform as G1, but it has a good bit more to it as well. Odds are the same is at work here.
Ya I seen the caves look like they do a little more but the wheels just sit there. Most newer figures that part swings around so the wheels are facing towards the back at least and looks like a leg in the front not just the bottom of a car. And I still like the figure I'm not saying its bad but the lower legs just look blah. And as for Grimlock ya it's just like g1 but there is nothing wrong with it IMO great detail vibrant colors just the right amout of diecast in the right places that figure is what got me started on MP line

If you want an acurrate G1 Sideswipe, the wheels are soposed to be oriented in the position they are. To change it would be inaccurate.

I suspect that an MP Soundwave, if there is one, will include at most 2 cassettes. The price alone for them including them all would be prohibitive.

agreed.. this isn't supposed to be an update to the design, it's supposed to be an attempt to make the toy as cartoon accurate as possible. the wheels are screen accurate.
also, this is more of a voyager sized toy, almost exactly the same size as the binaltech line, as to be in scale with MP10 prime. my guess is that mp13 soundwave will be the same height as prime.

Hotrodimust: an AM/FM radio wouldn't be terribly G1 accurate, seeing as how he was a tape player. honestly, if they were to go the route of giving him some kind of music playing capacity, an mp3 would work just as well. Seems unlikely since the most we've had in an MPs up until now has been some LEDs though.

I'm sorry but there was a g1 soundwave that was a working radio and cassette player not so sure about the cassette but I know it was a radio.

There never was one. You're thinking of Blaster, whose Microman predecessor, Radi-Casse Robo, had working electronics. The Radio itself was a small cassette.

No I'm pretty sure it was a soundwave I was reading an article about rare and rumored transformers and they had a picture of it next to a soundwave it was a little larger than g1 soundwave and the guy was talking about how when he was a kid him and his friends used to argue if it really existed and now he owns one. Matter of fact the article was either on this site or tformers because those are the only sites I really read about stuff but once in a while I read something somewhere else

I remember having this as a kid

Sideswipe's spoiler is right behind his ankles. I doubt a mere twister mechanism would solve that problem.WolfSpider1979 wrote:I wonder how they're going to do Red Alert from Sideswipe's mold. If you noticed Red Alert's back, the rear window/spoiler section is up behind his head, instead of the windshield. Are they going to add a twister to the back area?
