Battle blade campaign in Toys "R" Us(JAPAN) The blade of the campaign item comes in in a hand of OPTIMUS and plays.
Interesting how the art for Leadfoot has a white ring. That'd have been a neat way to avoid putting the Target logo on him.
Why don't I jut buy the Takara one and just paint the target logo and the number 42 on him. Either that or I buy the Target exclusive, paint the jet engine and the head silver and buy a Deluxe Ratchet just of the weapon.
man these are all over ebay at the moment! thinking of getting a ha soundwave myself, bit steep at 50 pounds tho and i also noticed the new deluxe leadfoots too!!!! 30 poundss for that!!! awsome!!!!!!
I just bought Striker Optimus Prime at a Japanese TRU while I was visiting my fiancee. Amazing figure, and the free exclusive battle blades are a nice little bonus incentive too! Deluxe Skywarp was a gift from the missus and he's pretty neat too, along with Cyberverse Soundwave. I did see Deluxe Vortex and Leadfoot but decided against buying them. I don't like either mold enough to justify the hefty Yen to Dollar exchange rate, and Leadfoot just looks naked without any sponsorship logos on him (though I'm sure Reprolabels will take care of that soon). I was hunting for Human Alliance Soundwave too but he was sold out by the time I got to that Japanese TRU. =( But there were piles of Striker Optimus Primes. There was an entire bin overflowing with him. Definitely a nice figure to pick up if you don't have one of this mold yet (this is my first Leader OP and he's almost as awesome as Leader/MP Starscream).
You could also wait until Reprolabels does a sticker sheet for him (since they've already done some of the other wreckers already).
Definitely will be issued under Hasbro because TakaraTomy just slap the japan sticker on the HA Soundwave, moreover the packaging also has Hasbro logo at the bottom corner of the box.
