    Soundwave reminds me a LOT of Marvel UK/Regeneration One Soundwave in his colors, actually. As he tended to be a lighter blue there.

    WAIT. I have to stop my excitement. Remind myself that I've never seen an MP that wasn't Thundercracker in any store. :(  I'll get excited again if these are NOT TRU exclusive.

    Ravage is mis-transformed: his nose isn't out and he doesn't have the arch in his back.

    Also Rumble is purple, I'm digging that.

    And I love Acid Storm.

    Acid Storm reinforces my hope that characters and color schemes not on the original G1 toys for the Sideswipe and Prowl molds will happen too.

    I think they could have given Acid Storm a different color cockpit and eyes, just to break apart all that green. The shade is nice though, looks toxic alright. The modern camo? Ehh..I dunno. Not a big fan, would prefer more organic blotches - but it's something different, alright!

    Oh wow, Acid Storm is a shocker. I'm much, much more interested now.

    Soundwave, well, obviously is an instant buy.

    I want to be wrong, but Soundwave is going to be so hard to acquire.

    So we Takara buyers basically paid an extra $300 for red eyes. Nice. I hope Hasbro's tape door is glued into place! :p

    These all look incredible and I'm sorry for those who have already dropped pver $300 on Takara's Soundwave and tapes. They are all bought on site.

    Just tell me when, my body is ready.

    The best things come to those who wait.

    So I'm curious what the final decoes are on these, given a few things:

    1. Frenzy appears to have a sticker with the faction symbol PAINTED OVER. You can see the indentation of a sticker there faintly; something's clearly been painted over.

    2. Rumble's missing some silver in tape mode, BUT Frenzy IS NOT missing that same paint app that they both share.
