Greetings

It looks like Music Label Soundblaster is getting another production run from Takara. Preorders are currently priced at $74.99 at BigBadToystore.

If you need the Reprolabels sticker set for him, preorders for those are $8.99, also at BBTS.

Anyone who doesn't have this mold should get it. It's pure win.

Agreed, I have the blue and white versions. White is still in his box but blue has an SD card and is often used as an MP3 player. Its just a shame the sound quality is so poor, lots of hiss.

So? He's the perfect Classics Soundwave, and the white one was in fact repurposed as (Cybertron Mode) Shattered Glass Soundwave

I should hunt down the blue, but the black is also appealing...

Its a shame cos its a flaw in an otherwise top figure.

i tried him once as an mp3 player. I found him much more enjoyable as a figure though.

It's one of the priciest Deluxes you can get but if you must have a G1 style Soundwave with knees that got the right way it's the one to go for.

Makes for a fantastic Classics Soundwave (the properly colored one, that is)...never even tried the MP3 player. If I recall, the functionality of it was quite limited anyhow. But I am tempted to get him an SD card just so he's packin' something in the chest...

Only question, why are they re-issuing this deco and not the traditional colors? Is Soundblaster more popular in Japan?
