    have some one that lives here help you
    I am happy to help anyone but its going to be expensive for sure

    I dont want anything extra so I am not asking for a penny but TT mall prices are usually very expensive almost double of what regular price is in the USA and then you have to pay up front now ( as cancelling an order on them can get you banned and I dont want to risk my account ) and takara tomy doesnt take credit cards anymore and charges you an extra few books for using cash. You have to send it via paypal and as a gift so I can protect myself from getting stuck with the bill. and then when it comes time to ship, it wont be cheap, your looking at a little under 30 USD possibly.

    So yeah, I am happy to help anyone but it might be cheaper to just order it off amazon. I just got TWO sounds blasters ( have two kids ) for 50 bucks shipped ( each one )

    Whelp, that's disappointing. Amazon has him for $61.82...:( 

    (*hopes against hope that Soundblaster gets released via Pulse eventually. Maybe the Siege one or a new Earth mode version of him.*)

    yeah it probably in the end would be cheaper on Amazon and you would get it now and not in several months from takara Tomy

    Im hoping for an Earth mode version as well . despite me already having the seige versions

    I would wait for the final product images. Many fans thought that Takara would release Skywarp with a different face due to the samples shown in TT Twitter too, but it was the same in the end.

    The red on Ionstorm looks too much like Thundercracker

    Second one looks like Grimlock, grey would fit him too.
    So the first row is all the remaining first wave 86 figures.

    Wait a second - are they using Gold paint instead of Yellow on Grimlock?
    Are we tip-toeing back into the days of Takara and Hasbro figures having deco differences? I gotta say - gold is way more my preference for Grimmy so I hope my eyes aren't playing tricks on me.

    I came into this thread for the same reason. Still not sure I need this guy- want Wheelie more than Grimlock- but if I get them I’d much rather have gold than the yellow we’ve been seeing.

    NOW THAT'S BIG GRIM! I love the mold but, the yellow puts me off. I'll snag the TakTomy version.
