1. Sonicron is $60.

2. He's between Voyager and Deluxe(his head come up to the chin on Voyager United Megatron).

If these are released.... I shall own them both!!!

Wed Jul 20, 2011 5:25 pm

Why are they to the starscream scale? Why not original OP or Megs??

Blaster looks better.

-_-

wow and theyre MP size. Now thats freaking awesome

SO. MUCH. WIN. Even though he's pretty much a G1 Soundwave w/more articulation, screen accurate head and what looks like the same transformation, I'm already sold on Soundwave's mold. Once I see color images I'll most likely **** a brick. My only complaint at this point (since no images provide evidence) is that he won't be able to hit his eject button with his left hand. It's a small gripe, but so far my only one.

its.......beautiful :') i dont collect MP but i would gladly add him to my collection with out hesitation :KREMZEEK:

This beauty beats Sonicron in every possible way, IMO.

Doubt I could spare the cash for him, but he's definitely a must-buy if I can scrounge up the extra funds.

But I'm not going to get them as they are far too big for my Classics Shelves

I've never understood this. Not at you directly because there seems to be equal complaints that he is too big or too small… He (and Blaster) are the size they are because that is what fits the classic cassettes (imagine the uproar if they didn't).

But why I don't don't understand this because since when has HasTak held to ANY type of scale?!

They haven't, but nonetheless, would it not look fuct displaying your MP seekers with your Classics?

Soundwave looks awesome but Im really digging FrenzyRumbles Blaster. He just looks so chunky and well put together.

I passed on I gears conehead masterpieces but If the Soundwave gets mass produced and the price is acceptable then I might consider picking him up. Cant wait to see the colour shots.

Probably cause that's what the MP scale is now. Optimus is being re-released in this scale and I don't doubt the eventual re-release of MP Megatron in this scale also.

So did I but I dont think the same rules apply in China or Japan....or they just dont give a
fig.

Actually, I read a quote from Hasbro, here on this site, that they wont go after any 3rd parties unless they charge over $100. Make what you will of that.

Wed Jul 20, 2011 11:35 pm

Now...I'm wondering if this MPs will come with cassettes...

IF IT DOESN'T.... it will drive up the prices of all the Encore cassettes the same way
Fansproject made ROTF bruticus maximus so expensive to get!!!

what do u guys think?

I agree. They both look really nice. Blaster's face is a little off but not bad. I'd kill for Hasbro to put out a deluxe version of that Blaster. I'll pick both of these up if they turn out nice.

Thu Jul 21, 2011 5:29 am

If it's under $200 each, I'll buy them without hesitation. Now if only someone could scale Megatron down to fit others....

News Credits: 20 · Thu Jul 21, 2011 2:04 pm

Right, correcting myself here. All my money is going to be spent on Wreckers AND Soundwave. Groovy

You know, the awsomeness of this blinded me to the fact that it's yet another "duplicate" 3rd party entry. Namely, it pushes Sonirun right out of the game.

Sonicron didn't need a lot of help getting pushed out

From a guy with a Soundwave mantel, even with the Unicron one, I agree about the easy pass of Sonicron. This masterpiece belongs up there.

these look great so far, for a reasonable price i'd pick them both up.

Yeah I second that. Is it just me or has the 3rd party market got more "here, look at this!! Want it? Yeah?" then disappears for ages!

Both Maketoy and whoever these guys with the Soundwave and Blaster molds would be swamped with preorders at this point if we could order 'em somewhere...
