Perfect Effect have revealed images of their next two products. Continuing their trend of offering tiny, intricate versions of Soundwave’s cassettes, their next two releases will be named Laser and Buzzer, and will be re-imagined versions of Laserbeak and Buzzsaw respectively.

Remember, these are unofficial and unlicensed items, and are not official Transformers products.

How much will this cost? I usually don't get into thrid party items due to the cost.

I'm going to withhold judgement until I see it colored and in action.
Right now I think it looks awful but not-Rumble and not-Frenzy were so show athentic and awesome that I'm going to give PE the benefit of the doubt.

Energon Divebomb was pretty good.

I have to agree that it does look pretty simplistic, but I'm willing to bet that there's some mobility to the design that we can't see from these pictures. The hinges in the wings are obvious, but looking close to where the wings attach to the main body they appear to have a swing mechanism. Keep in mind too… it's probably pretty difficult to design something that can actually mimic all the folding that a winged creature can do. I honestly can't think of any official Transformers that have done so either.
Not attacking your opinion or anything, just putting another perspective out there.

To be honest, with something that small and simple, I'd probably just bash my own together than fork out big dollar for tiny plastic.

What is this thing ment to be

I'll need to see more pictures of this first.
…And then probably wait for a G1 paintjob like they did on the Shadow Warrior.

Uhhh…. ability to swing wings forward and back, up and down, maybe flare the feathers. Maybe tuck the wings for perching. Birds' wings can form into all sorts of shapes. This guy just looks like he has airplane wings with hinges in them.
I'm just saying that G1 Laserbeak has about as much overall mobility, and is a lot more compact and and appealing in his design. Just my opinion.

Yeah, but the Classics Ravage was a bug disappointment for me. Device Label Ravage is my main show piece.
I think it is. The shoulders look different from the Fremble mold.
Music Label is a pretty cool stand-in too. And the shadow set looks great next to the Soundblaster repaint.

I'd get these, except I use a cybertron soundwave as my classics-verse soundwave, and have two birdie minicons already for him. they'd be great if I didn't, though. but bring on that ratbat and overkill that we saw in silhouettes before, though!

Looks a little weird, but I'll reserve judgement until we see more.

I agree. I just saw that early episode the other day with my 2yr old son and forgot Laserbeak looked like that.

Yup. Attaches to his back and somehow attaches to the BFG, making the BFG look like it strapped to SC's back.

Is that it's robot mode or eject next to it ?
RedAlert Rescue
Neither Webdiver, Brave, or Diaclone etc… are Transformers either but some people on here are still interested in them.

Its a bird, how much articulation does it need……….

Looks promising!

I was extremely disappointed with Shadow Warrior, which I finally got last week in my BBTS pile of loot. As a result, I will be passing on these as well. While it would be nice to have better articulated versions of the cassettes, the Encore versions work well enough with my Classics/Universe figures for the most part.

I like that, they are not licencsed products and are not tf toys.
