The justification for making a Universe Prowl and an Animated Prowl was because their alt modes were so different, right? well, a Scion xB looks different from a tape deck. a tank doesnt look like a handgun (sorta), plus the Animated one has multiple other forms. so do you think they are different enough to warrant their own Universe toys?

He's not cheap or super easy to come by, but he fits the bill as a modernized version of his G1 self, and he even has minions if you want to shell out some extra cash. |

Though mind you I'm convinced that he's unrealistic enough to work, plus he has the benefits of being colored purple - but what do I know?
As for Soundwave, given that the new Ravage is backwards compatible I'm pessimistic about one of those. Though I'd love a new Rumble/Frenzy mold. |

I've never been a fan of Object-formers. Hell, just change Energon Shockblast's giganto-arm, throw a coat of paint on him and he's a dead ringer for the original imo. |

(Take Megatron, I'd be OK with Megs if he came with a gun mode version of himself with the universal peg hole, so that any modern TF can hold him.)
Anyway, I'm all for Enegon Shockblast in a new color scheme with a new left arm.
