Everyone's favorite Ravage might be accompanying the once rare Soundblaster and Buzzsaw to be reissued later next month. Buzzsaw has not been officially confirmed either, but since Soundblaster originally came with him and Laserbeak was reissued last year along with Soundwave, it's a slaggin' good guess that Buzzsaw is official. The addition of Ravage (Jaguar) will be really nice as well.

This "rumor" / news came from our very own Big Grim. You can join in the thread about this that Big Grim posted at the Energon Pub message board.

Yesterday, we posted the rumor that due to the shakeup in the creative team at Dreamwave, James "Brad Mick" McDonough and Adam Patyk may have departed the company. We are now able to confirm this news for ourselves thanks to an e-mail from none other than McDonough and Patyk themselves!

Respecting the departure of McDonough and Patyk from Dreamwave:

We have a dispute with Dreamwave regarding our departure. We are owed a significant amount of unpaid fees which are being claimed from Dreamwave.

Sincerely,
James McDonough and Adam Patyk
