    Hard to tell from the video, but what are the differences? Is it just that Ravage is now black? Are there any changes to the other two?

    Laserbeak gets his grey bits replaced with black as well. Frumble is unchanged.

    Definitely recommend both Jazz and the seeker mold. I have the gold wheel version of Jazz, their main 3 seekers, and the conehead set. I absolutely could not put them down when I got them. The seekers are a HUGE improvement from the old DX9 mold, if you've ever messed with those. I'm currently waiting on my Soundwave to make it's journey from China to me.

    personally i think the seekers/coneheads are their best, with vanbros and jazz following closely out of all the NA figs i have in my collection.
    i also got shipping notice for the H21EX toy i ordered yest! :D

    I received my H21 yesterday. It's another great figure by NA and I think overall I like it a little bit more than the MS version. For me the NA alt-mode is clearly superior, while the robot mode for both versions is very good.

    I am a little concerned about the lower elbow joint for H21 though. It's already pretty loose out of the box (I do have it clicked all the way in), and the sliding mechanism make it seem like it will get worse over time. Looks like it'll be tricky to try to tighten the joint too. I'm not sure if it was possible, but I wish they designed that joint a bit differently to make it more robust.

    i like how translucent soundwave and ravage looks, but frumble and laserbeak not so much. not sure i like just the two of out of the four THAT much to justify the spend to buy a 3rd one of this mold. :p

    Hi, to anyone still in this thread. I've only just got into New Age and am replacing some of my DX9 and Iron factory. How tall is H21 in cm?

    Awesome thanks.

    So he'll be about as big as Iron Factory Megatron, who is staying as my megatron. Which I think is ok.

    12 day odyssey from ShowZ, not bad at all. I searched the packaging for any sign of pitney bowes, nothing that I could see. Speaking of packaging, showZ wrapped the styrofoam box in a snazzy pink wrap:p

    I have said that this seemingly trivial tit for tat that NA & MS seem to have going is not the way. I’ll be damned if it hasn’t brought out the best in both. It seems like this ‘war’ just means I’ll have two representations of the same character. Out of all these images & videos I’ve seen of this guy, not sure how I missed the exposed magnets on the wrists:confused:  For some reason I thought it was more internalized. Either way, looking forward to the shattered glass color even more after getting these in hand

    Toy version arrived today, totally awesome! Did not expect to be army building legends scale Soundwaves this year, but am digging it!

    Pics below comparing the tapes. There are subtle differences on each. For Rumble it's just the grey chest and pelvis detail painted silver vs the flat grey on the original. Lazerbeak, all three plastic colours are different shades, plus there's silver on the wings which doesn't show up too well in the photos. For ravage, obviously the black colour but also the silver on the legs.

    Forgot to post this, I had some insignia small enough for ravage, think it looks quite good, unfortunately non small enough for rumble or lazerbeak. IMG_20201019_082108.jpg
