Preorders Open for Two Versions of Missing Link Soundwave with Two New Tapes

Is it possible that the toy version has die cast?

FINALLY, an official Autoscout! How long has it been since we got the third 3P version form KFC? (And was that the last?)

Interesting that it means getting Missing Link Ravage's missiles before he gets an ML toy himself. The Autoscout was Frankensteined together from his and Rumble's model sheets, but the Rumble/Frenzy guns would look awkward plonked on its sides.

At the risk of counting cyber-chickens before they hatch, this has me anticipating ML Cobalt Sentries!

And Soundwave's long lost internal chest door hinge has apparently been resculpted!

Just saw the Missing Link Soundwave pictures today. I think I might favor him over SS86 Soundwave, if I can swing the cost.

Because after all, G1 Soundwave is nicely in cartoon scale with neo-G1 figures, and this would be able to hold both G1 and SIEGE-size tapes (albeit loosely for the latter). And he can do the lamp-post mode flawlessly.

I kinda want both for the cassettes. But those prices are getting properly insane.
