It occurred to me today as I was chatting with some Transnerds:
SIEGE Soundwave's 2nd BLASTER?
What? Why? What does he need...? Huh?!

I mean, it looks cool enough.

And at first, I did what I always do when a BLASTER or weapon doesn't mtake sense for a figure:
I can toss it into the BLASTER cache tote
Or
Reassignment

I figured we didn't know much about Barricade other than he was a cop before the war.
So I thought: police Magnum that becomes a tonfa type baton. Done.

Then a few weeks later, this occurred to me

Answered revealed!

But nobody else figured this out, with the exception of a superlative few!

And now you know!
AND KNOWING IS HALF THE BATTLE!
The other half is just an incredible amount of violence.

That's a neat idea, though the general consensus is that it isn't really his gun at all, but for finishing out Megatron's bot mode.

It doesn't look very good on Megatron. I like it as Laserbeak's perch better. If I had the figure. Does the Netflix version have it?

Yes, it does. So if you have a Siege version and a Netflix one (or a Soundblaster), AND Hasbro ever gets around to giving us a Buzzsaw, then you could have both birdies (and maybe even Ratbat) flying over his shoulders.

I like it.

I'll take "Things your Transformers can do that you never realised" for $200, Alex (RIP)

I'll never complain about any figure getting extra weapons, especially in the Siege line where the theme is war torn-I've been at war for a zillion years and I ain't playing around anymore-all these extra ports on me is to arm me up to the max-lets annihilate everything in site.
