Among those hologram statues, I recognize Black Shadow and Generations Voyager Brainstorm, but can't make out the guy with the cannon on his back or the guy with the door wings.

Is it just me, or does that Mutant Soundwave look-a-like give off some Sideways-y vibes, as if he's a manipulator?

Remember that comic for the e-Hobby exclusive Magna Convoy we showed a few days back? Well, fellow Seribertronian Sabrblade tells us this morning that there's already a translation! From TFW2005 user Sanchimaru and Allspark Forum user Jalaguy, the now-english comic is featured below for your viewing convenience. Have a look and drop a comment in the forums!

Except he was secretly working with Megaligator in taking out Convobat just before helping Magna Convoy go after Straxus. So yeah, he's definitely working both sides similar to Sideways. Thinking about it that Nightbeat Titan Master's head does resemble Armada Sideways' real head slightly, wouldn't be a hard repaint in purple and yellow.

Eh, I saw Megalligator as much as a protagonist as Convobat in that comic as well.Emerje wrote:Sabrblade wrote:To me he feel like that mysterious guy who gives help to the protagonist but for some secret agenda of his own that his helping said protagonist will benefit.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Is it just me, or does that Mutant Soundwave look-a-like give off some Sideways-y vibes, as if he's a manipulator?

He was a victim of Straxus' experiments, but he was clearly not a hero in the story after revealing ulterior motives and betraying Convobat. I wonder if this will lead to Megalligator getting a new body?

I didn't call him a "hero". The word "protagonist" doesn't always refer to a good guy, just the main guy or guys.Emerje wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Eh, I saw Megalligator as much as a protagonist as Convobat in that comic as well.Emerje wrote:Sabrblade wrote:To me he feel like that mysterious guy who gives help to the protagonist but for some secret agenda of his own that his helping said protagonist will benefit.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Is it just me, or does that Mutant Soundwave look-a-like give off some Sideways-y vibes, as if he's a manipulator?

However you want to define it it's clear that "Soundwave" is playing both sides. I'm thinking he'll turn on Magna Convoy as well, maybe take the sword for himself or whoever he may be working for. That'll leave Convobat and Magna Convoy to work together.

In both comics, he's helping the side that's against Straxus. Playing both sides would mean that he'd have helped the antagonist (who is Straxus) in once comic and the protagonist(s) in another, but he doesn't. He only helps one of the main guys on the side that's against Straxus in both comics. He's shifty and mysterious as all get out, yeah, but has so far only provided his support for one of the main protagonist characters going against the same main antagonist of each comic.

Sure, but why help Megalligator instead of Convobat if he's going to turn around and help Magna Convoy later? By playing both sides I mean working with an obvious villain like Megalligator and someone heroic (though vengeful) like Magna Convoy. Though we don't know exactly what kind of support he's providing, we haven't really seen him do anything other than appear in panels.

How many times has this mold been used now? It's still a good figure but damn, some collectors must have whole shelves of it in different colours by now. I still just have the very first one from 10 years ago. Had the Magnus repaint for a while too.
