    Acid Storm?

    If Skywarp had to be put on discount to make it move. If Thundercracker lurks around at TRU at the moment as MP Prime can't even collect dust. What was Hasbro smoking when they came up with this idea?

    They probably would been better off just to had done a MP Grimlock reissue in the G2 colors.

    If and when that mold comes round again, Hasbro Asia, or Takara so they charge out the ass for it.

    What's sad is they'll probably have a case assortment of three Acid Storms and one Soundwave.

    ^ Uhhhh What?... MP's are only packed with the same character, There is no case assortment!! There will likely be 4 soundwave's per case. then the Acid storms will be in an entirely different box ("Wave" so to speak) also likely to have 4 acid storms per case.

    Masterpiece Acid Storm? I thought that's what the original Masterpiece Starscream was. :D

    Yeah, I wonder if this will be inspired more by Classics camouflage, cartoon appearance or a new twist.

    Acid Storm is an easy pass for me but Soundwave is a must for my opener.

    The bright green seeker in the 1st episode of the G1 Cartoon is known by the fandom as Acid Storm.

    Acid Storm seems random, from a business standpoint. And personally, as a proud owner of every Hasbro MP, I might choose to skip him. I keep wishing they bring Starscream back using the MP-11 mold. Im guessing that would fly off shelves.

    Soundwave on the other hand? Seems like they're getting the ball rolling.
