    I agreed with statements like this for years, however, the Music Label Soundwave has finally taken over as the best soundwave for my taste. I think its the articulation that does it for me. Although it's too bad that the ML Rumble/Frenzy look terrible IMO.

    I got Animated Soundwave in the mail recently, and I am satisfied with him. He definitely looks "cute" in comparison to how menacing ML Soundwave can look, but that's just the style of Animated I've come to accept.

    As for the complaints from some on here about the wobbly legs on Animated Soundwave, I was able to fix that by adding a layer of Super Glue around the ball joints of the knees, then just respnapping them in place after it dried. Presto, problem solved.

    If only there was a better articulated Laserbeak that could pirch with his wings more appropriately folded, but now I'm just being picky.

    Wobbliness in the legs is probably attributed to figure being a prototype, and not the mass release version.

    Quite common.

    I take a look at TF Animated's rendition of Soundwave, with the help of a new correspondent.



    BONUS!

    It's not Transformers, but here's my review of the S.H.Figuarts Kamen Rider figures.

    Your reviews continue to get goofier and goofier man, but it works so keep it up.

    I have to say i'm still not convinced on Soundwave. Laserbeak? I wish i could buy him seperately.

    Best review of anything ever. The laugh montage was Oscar-worthy.

    What's the oscar for a video toy review? An Irving? a Lasco? a Peterbuilt?

    I'm not actually going to be home until late this week, so I can't at the moment. :( 

    My intention is to have a written/still-pics review to go with each video eventually, but I admit I also figured that since so many other people have taken shots of the toy, it'd not be too big a deal for me to do so right away.

    I like the headsculpt. Non-G1 clone FTW.

    Sticky paint? Damn, that sucks. I don't have that but I heard about it before. I would give him a 4.6/5 since I have no paint problems but I do have nicks in the face. :(

    Sticky paint, I can explain already.

    Soundwave's just all hot and sweaty.
