    Damn right, dude! It was definitely too obvious for Takara to avoid. But I will be buying with no hesitation! Now we just need Billy/Twincast!!! :D

    Sides......yes. SB........maybe.

    Watch Ratbat become as valuable or more so than the whole of the rest of the tapes combined.

    Sneaky.

    Sideswipe was preordered even before pics, and happily remains so.

    Like almost everyone else I KNEW Ratbat would be coming with Soundblaster. Drat it all. I really want him but $150 is probably out of my price range for just Ratbat.


    -ZacWilliam, Soundblaster is probably the most expensive mostly unwanted accessory ever...

    I was wavering if I should get the TRU Soundwave as a second one, this just made that decision so much easier :D

    I think it's way too easy for them not to. Personally, not impressed with soundblaster but think g2 sideswipe looks awesome. Just wondering about the lack of g2 green in th deco...

    So who here is hoping for a Linkin Park version of MP Soundwave as the next deco?

    This is where the dark blue shading on MP SW is sort of unfortunate-he ends up looking pretty much exactly like Soundblaster.

    I think there's going to be hundreds of people saying that.

    Shrewd and cunning move Takara.

    obviously this is being released and i bet it'd look great next to MP-10b.... and although I'd love to drop another buck-fiddy+ ive gotta draw the line somewhere... and that arbitrary line is crap-ass TF rebirth... ill take that ratbat though!

    Nope, I have fond memories of my G2 Sideswipe as a kid, but it doens't have a place on my current MP shelf. So Imma skip him also.

    However I will be getting the Soundblaster set just to complete the '86 movie team of cassettes. Soundblaster himself is going to get sold off, I just need that MP Ratbat

    G2 Sideswipe looks very desirable. Soundblaster not as much but I'd like more tapes down the line.

    Though to be fair, being a mailman is a far better use of his time than singing in that band :D

    I'm not bothered about Ratbat but Soundblaster looks pretty sweet - can't wait to be able to pick one up cheap, when you guys who just want the new cassette sell him on!
