Transformers War for Cybertron Siege Bluestreak and Soundblaster Packaging Revealed

First thing I thought of when I saw Lancer was that she's ready to be appropriated by Destro's Iron Grenadiers...

If any one s curious it tastes EXACTLY like what it says, it's just hard to imagine.

Well, I've never heard of those before! The one thing you won't find here is chocolate with toys in it. I always get kinder eggs when I'm traveling aboard. Then accidentally eat the toy and choke, the fucking FDA was right

Kinder found a way around it though for the US, I saw these at US Walmarts:

Yeah, but those are not as sexy (read illegal). I like to live on the edge "when in Rome and shit"

It being online exclusive and also being still a mass produced toy means there will be quite a bit to go around, we just dont know how long to wait till we know the best channels of purchase for all.

Well that's easy for us North Americans to say. I'll just wait for Pulse and click the pre-order button and get free shipping.

I will say that I skipped Elita at first until it was rumored that a full lady biner team would be released. I'm very excited to finish up the team. Would be cool if Hasbro went the CW route and released a legends class figure to go with them. I guess one of the non-combining Chromias will fill that support role.

Pro-tip, bite off each end and use it as a straw for some milk and you'll get a slightly chocolaty milk.

Even more pro-tip, do NOT try that with orange juice...

I wonder if we'll see an actual blue Bluestreak redeco as well. Perhaps in the Selects line?

I wish they'd quit it with the black Soundwave, if they wanna do a recolor, Hasbro should use the marvel colors and leave the violation of creative labs's trademark for takara in japan. Blah blah they don't do different decos across the ocean anymore , well, I don't care.

OS.. Why should he be colored like an error? Especially since it wasn't consistent and was only in the US comics.
Soundblaster, meanwhile, is a much more recognized alternate color scheme for Soundwave these days, with appeal on both across the Pacific and across the pond, and precedent in US toylines since Animated. And, in this case, comes with the spiffy "Hold two cassettes" feature.

Sir, please step away from Strada's remains with that stick.

One of the original sound cards for PC back in the day, along with AdLib and Gravis Ultrasound. And it's not a trademark violation because that falls in a different category.

Thanks Jelze, it would be weird to see them try to sue in that case.
