    I must have missed that part in the movie.

    All I remember is Sideways vs. "Oh God is that a sword in my hood? It is! Why is there a sword in my hood!? Who is that jumping up over me?! What's happening, What did I d...HurglllsssshhhhhhhkkkKK!"




    Damn I'm Good.

    That is a really odd combination for a 2 pack.

    Sideways just got half-priced in one of the major supermarkets here and Wheelie is already massing to become a shelfwarmer and go the same cut-price way. This two-pack makes no sense at all.
    Normal paintjob Soundwave has been clogging shelves all over, but I've not seen either that Fallen or Megatron (did the 2007 Voyager Megs actually make it here last time?) at retail so that might be worth a look, even though it would work out around the same price as buying those figures separately anyway.

    maybe they realized they were shelf warming and are hoping the two pack will help them sell?

    And they realized that before June, when Wheelie and Sideways had only just come out?

    Isn't that more than the normal UK price for two Voyagers and a Deluxe?

    That's why this is the price for the "Gathering at the Nemesis" set with Voyager Megatron, Voyager Fallen and Deluxe Soundwave.

    And before Wheelie was even released in the UK, where this two-pack now came out?

    It'll be equally frustrating and amusing to see this two-pack shelfwarm right alongside the individual releases of Wheelie and Sideways.
