    Exactly.

    Pics, tits, colourful stories, or it didn't happen. You know the drill. :)

    I'll pay the extra $6 for both at BBTS and not have my credit card info stolen.

    You can use Paypal there too. But I just went through checkout on both sites, BBTS was more for the figures, but less on shipping, plus they wont bill me until they ship. So I preordered through BBTS instead.

    TFscource did give a little discount by buying both however, it went down to $134.95 for both, but shipping was almost $17. Still a little cheaper than BBTS, but I like that I wont be billed until they ship through BBTS.

    Soundblasters are Enemy and Wingthing. Twincast, maybe Nightstalker and I have no idea who the red one would be.

    The red cassette looks a lot like the Microman cassette.

    The rest are just repaints I think.

    Awesome. This is as good a time as any to finally own a Soundblaster.

    ... uhgghhhghghghghghghhgh. Damn you. I wanted an Enemy... now I... must... buy these.

    But... expensive... I think it is very likely that I'll give those Wingthing ears to my Ratbat (Sure, they're black but Ratbat is largely black anyway...). And I really don't like the color of the chest door... the red door is what really tied together Soundblaster's color scheme to me...

    Rather like Black Steeljaw, though. And I don't have a Blaster mold or a Steeljaw mold...

    Stripes and Nighstalker come with Twincast, a tiger repaint of Ravage and a black Steeljaw respectively.
    Enemy and Wing Thing are indeed the repaints with Soundblaster.

    I love me some cassettes so these are a must-have.

    I didn't post the source because I figured if I knew about them everyone did, it was more to lament the pro's and con's of awesome cassette repaints rather than to earn a news credit.

    Oh, Stripes eh? From the early draft of the movie? Cool, I didn't even see that he had stripes.

    ... oh man, I want the Enemy. I'm... mixed about Wingthing, and I've wanted a Soundblaster since I got back into collecting but... why the blue chest cover?
