    Toydojo added SS-83 Soundwave:
    Transformers Studio Series 83 - Voyager Soundwave

    Edit:
    There's some important details you're leaving out.

    The gap fillers are pretty bad compared to other offerings. The feet one in particular don't look like their preview renders. The paint doesn't match. The backpack piece and the feet fillers don't sit flush / proper. DNA is also using this weird gunmetal plastic with a brown tint.

    I would say the only decent piece from the Leadfoot part of the Wreckers set is the leash for Steeljaw, but even then, the chain is too long.

    Cyber Era Bumblebee arrived!
    So much better than the Transcraft version in terms of build quality.

    That's good to hear, but I just wish they would've gotten the paint right.

    The plan was to get Stealth Bumblebee done today (and Alt mode is all done), but I still have to wrap up the bot mode. Looking at tomorrow now for upload!

    After not having done a custom in around 4 months, I finally started one today.

    Found Sideswipe at my store recently. I don't know what it is with me, but this guy was pretty disappointing. It just felt so cheaply made and "fiddly." Then again, I've been slowly moving away from Bayverse since I've found that the WFC figures have brought me immensely more joy. It's funny because I won't have too much interest in some of these figures, but I see it in stores and say "Okay, I'll get it." Jolt, Grindor, and Sideswipe haven't impressed me personally, despite really trying to give them chances and find the positives. Hopefully you guys are enjoying your figures. :) 

    Despite the "meh," all new figures get the photo treatment.

    Sigh, if only there were ..oh I don't know...a new Ironhide figure. That would get me back on track. XD

    Oddly enough, as a WFC fan I have really enjoyed the deluxes from the latter half of Studio Series whereas the deluxes in the beginning did not appeal me. Maybe I needed an adjustment period due to their reduced size. I could never bring myself to purchase Jazz due to his size.

    WFC figures are tits!

    Is that Inferno/Grapple's rifle? If so, it fits well with EV Prime

    I’m hoping since we don’t have listings for deluxes I hope some of these gimmick toys aren’t like Cyberverse’s and are decent and have articulation but I doubt it.
    That was the plan: ROTB toyline this year then more accurate figures in SS for 2023z

    Yeah I am okay with skipping a full year off these guys and putting money on more 3p figures

    Got the Model Wizard Megatron yesterday and he's HUGE! Thankfully I think he's the tallest figure I'll get in the 1:30-ish scale, I don't know if my room can handle any bigger guys lol. I also need a new camera... My phone one doesn't even begin to make these guys justice
