I'm sure this is going to be a hot issue, but I'm looking for a G1-style Soundwave.
After watching this Saturday's past "Transformers: Animated" episode, my 4-year old is 'needing' a Soundwave. I told him that they're not out to buy yet, but then proceeded to tell him that when I was a kid Soundwave transformed into a radio. Well...that's the one he's wanting now.
Granted, I never had Soundwave as a kid, but that didn't mean I didn't want him.
I have a couple of auctions tagged on eBay, but I was just curious if anyone would be able to give me an idea of a place or person to contact on this. I'm fine with a slightly used one in good shape. Again...it's for my 4-year old son, so I don't really want to spend $50 or more on one that may end up thrown in the toybox...and my wife would kill me if I spend that much. :wink:

Anyway, if anyone would have an idea, besides eBay, I'd be much appreciative!

Thanks!

You could ask in the Carbombya forum here on Seibertron.com. People can sell, trade and post wants on there.

Thanks for the replies, everybody! I think I'm all set!

Needless to say, my son is going to be excited...but I'm not sure if he's going to be as excited as I am!

Thanks, again!

Why not Get Classics Soundwave?
He still Transforms into a Radio but the only Problem (if you'd call it a problem) is that Classics Soundwave holds 2 cassetes instead of 1.

The only problem with that is, first off finding a Classics Soundwave around here, and then finding one that isn't $40-$60.

If I decide to pick one up for myself to 'display', I will definitely be looking at the Classics line. With it going to my 4-year old, a used one will be perfectly fine.
