    I just picked up FOC Soundwave and Soundblaster. In the instructions and on the back of the box it looks like it comes with 2 weapons....one looking like G1 Optimus Primes gun. However it is not in the box. Now the instruction book also references this gun. Anyone else notice?

    There a thread that talks about this already, but yes he does only come with one gun.

    He had it when it was on display at SDCC, so I'm guessing they scrapped it sometime in between.

    Dude chill out! I did a search for FOC Soundwave and came up with NOTHING. I should have done Fall Of Cybertron. My APOLOGIES. Geeze.

    Is it natural for people to just automatically get shitty?

    Perhaps UFO might make him a suitable gun ?

    I'm more irritated that he now lack 5mm ports on the side of the vehicle personally (unlike the deluxe).

    Around here? YES!


    I'm actually glad I read this thread. I remember the initial pics had the "Optimus Gun" in them, but (unlike everyone else apparently) I didn't know anything beyond that. Now I know!

    I have noticed the rudeness is more with younger members. But that's just me.

    It's not just that there's a thread for it already (Still on the first page of the forum), its also that there's News Threads, Video Reviews and Toy Reviews as well, many having been up for months and still on the first page of their respective forums.
    I get that people don't need to be shitty at you, but it would've taken about 5 seconds and a little common sense to actually check properly if people had noticed this before and putting up another thread proves you hardly looked at all.

    Some Optimus Prime's got together and stole the guns!

    It was the first thing I looked for but without taking the figures out of the box, you can tell he didn't come with it. I checked the other Soundwaves but nothing so I figured it was some false ad. Or like someone said, it was probably scrapped halfway. Or Hasbro was all "FU whiners!" and shit. Early April Fool's lolz.

    And knowing is half the battle!

    Now not all younglings are rude, and some adults here are as well. Its easy for people to be mean and rude from behind the Anonymity that a computer provides. Some people are totally different in person. Its really not cool.

    I try to be objective and considerate to my fellows who have been submerged into this fandom and franchise form some-odd 20+ years, as apposed to my 10 years. But, yeah. There are some man-children. And I think it's a solidarity thing to some folks who feel, protected being just text to another person, so they try and be as much of an ass as possible.

    I usually don't rely on the board's search function. Just google tfw2005+whateveryourelookingfor and you'll get better results.

    Absolutely.
