    I think my main shelf is still going to use the classics/universe/generations seekers, but this looks good enough that I'll display it somewhere else around.

    I'm not super crazy about Starscream, but he is a Colonial Viper, and I may have to buy him for that reason alone.

    These are in the east in some shops, that's how he was able to buy these, how long until these get to the USA? I hope its sooner than a couple of months, I need Soundwave asap.

    The only thing that bugs me on SS is the thick white bands on the cockpit. Those are usually very thin or nonexistent. It’s not a pleasing design choice imo. But I’ll still get every seeker repaint in this mold. You heard that Hasbro!? I giving you permission to squeeze as much cash out of me using this mold!

    Soundwave looks fine. Gappy forearms are distracting but oh well. I really dig the new dropship alt mode. But i do prefer red visor!

    is it just me or are the decepticons excessively "greebly". They look good, but I could do with a little less surface detail.

    I have no idea how, but here's a fan tape deck mode, looks like you just tuck the head away and fold up the legs but I dont have the figure so mo way to tell for sure. Looks cool to me.

    1) My GOD how terrible the tetrajet mold turned out, yeesh.
    2) While the damage on prime and Hound and Cog actually wasn't so bad, holy shit it looks terrible on Soundwave, like enough to ruin the figure.

    Where've you been, - lots of people have been saying that. They're not wrong.

    I don't get why Hasbro do it. It's like no matter how good the figures get, Hasbro will always find some way to hold them back being everything anyone ever hoped for. And they get so damn close. At times I can understand the limitations, other times it seems like they unnecessarily gimp things or ugly them up for some reason.

    I'm really impressed with Soundwave here. Could've liked it even better without the scuffed up battle damage paint effect, the cheap grey plastic, and the busy detailing.

    Ok, I\'ve now see the backside of that Seeker and I won\'t buy all the repaints, Just Thundercracker and Skywarp. Maybe that rumored Selects Redwing because I love the selects line.

    These things look ugly. I don't get why Hasbro keeps making these chubby clunky skin rash looking toys.

    I think Soundwave looks pretty good. As I said before in a previous thread, it’s just unfortunate that they half assed his alt mode. And Starscream looks pretty good, too. I’m actually glad I didn’t pick up the previous Starscream iterations in Combiner Wars or POTP. Despite the unfortunate fact that the robot kibble just hangs below the alt mode, this Starscream looks superior to previous iterations, in my opinion at least.

    At first I really liked Soundwave, but now his chest window looks gigantic. I’m still gonna get him, but, like a drunk hook up, it just doesn’t look as good as I thought it did.
