    I see you everywhere in threads I watch, asking if there are new pictures. If there were, people would be everywhere talking about them

    With Dalianjj on the board, sometimes it does happen that he adds in some early comments or updates, lol.

    But honestly, i think we will see FT Blitzwing and more FT Stunticons/Aerialbots colored pics first, just cause...

    Seing the digibash, even i am very tempted by this actually (even with my existing KO MP Soundblaster), but only if the white is painted like Spoiler or FT-10X or FT Maverick, otherwise, i would wait for a maybe (if there is demand) Soundblaster repaint of it later, if still interested in a few years when either releases.

    Based on that pic, it loos like they are getting rid of most of the unnecessary detail MP 13 has (that I have always disliked)

    Bizarre, as FT is supposed to follow the "Hasui aesthetic". This looks like a very cartoon accurate Soundwave to me.

    Maybe it is because it's an unpainted proto, but the headsculpt has NOTHING on TT's version.

    Man I just bought takara’s re-release and it’s terrible. Sand under the paint, legs stiff like they’re gonna snap off and just uninspiring.

    This looks fantastic no matter what the cassette or paint situation is I know FT will make it feel premium.

    I kind of am hoping though that they include a fogged window piece, like how they did with their Blurr

    Need to see this next to MP-13 before I make any decision.

    I mean ACTUALLY next to him - I want to see the size comparison.

    I have a first release Takara Soundwave and he's starting to fall apart, just standing on the shelf. Seams are starting to grow gaps, and some of the joints creak that never made a sound before. Since Soundwave is my oldest transformer, it's worrying me about the future of my collection.

    feet a bit wide at the bottom unlike any G1 soundwave model/toon before it. still thats the weakest part of takara's design too...and he is missing some sculpting around the knee/lower leg. the back of the leg is less clean too. hopefully the artculation will be better than takara's. so far the sculpting is a mixed bag but mostly worse IMO. see, i like the g1 toy homage hips...but its less toon accurate i guess. the gun is wrong too. hipskirts...unsure about them.

    My take: :yuck 

    I just don't like how plain it looks. Boring, Flat, lifeless, everything I hate about the new MP style. That, the head sculpt looks off, and just doesn't look like the soundwave I know despite walking off the screen.

    BUT! I clad people like it, He'll probably be a great figure, hell transformation, all that good stuff. I just don't like how it looks.
