    Thanks for posting this, but man will it be easy to pass up the SDCC exclusives this year. Holy cow, two strike-outs.

    That is actually really rather hideous... But then again I'm not a Mighty Muggs person.

    Wow, this is a very easy pass. I am happy with my Optimus I got from Target last week for $7.99! I am still on the fence about Soundwave and Co. though...

    Seriously? When they've got all this cancelled product like Universe Robot Heroes, MM Jazz and Shockwave, Titanium Soundblaster & Primal Prime, etc?

    What a MASSIVE dissapointment.

    At least it saves me a bit of money, though.

    Wait... where's my black repaint?! I was after Titanium Ravage or Animated Nemesis Prime or some other totally random concept!

    Very, very lame exclusives this year... too bad.

    Not interested in this, but still like the sound of the reissue Soundwave with the extra tapes.

    Well at least everyone won't start to lose their minds about this exclusive, considering all the others.

    Actually it's kinda nice for the exclusives to be not-overly done. Almost peaceful.

    Even a black Nemesis Prime Mighty Mugg would've been better. This is just one of those "heh heh we now have a slightly better version of something you already bought" kinda things :(

    LOL, true. And it will give a chance for non-hardcore fans to obtain these "treats". Plus give Hasbro back some change.

    Metallic Might Mugg? The masses will go hysterical over this one....

    I have yet to buy a single Mugg. Yet I find myself looking at them every single time I pass them in the stores.

    Wow... another failure from SDCC this year. It'll be easy to pass these two up for sure. I mean, really... what's the point of another Soundwave release in the states (the TRU reissue was saturated enough one would think...) and that Prime just reeks of 'we now have a slightly better version available of that cool item you just purchased'. I mean... Mighty Muggs Nemesis Prime would have made me go ga-ga and if they really felt the need to reissue Soundwave again they could have at least done him up as Soundblaster instead (considering the mold they're using already utilizes Soundblaster's double cassette chest if it's the same as the TRU reissue). Bleh.

    And where's my Animated Nemesis Prime darn it?!

    The Soundwave at SDCC this year is a remolded Soundblaster - he only holds one tape inside.

    I would have been much, much, much happier with Frenzy and Rumble being included instead of another Laserbeak and Ravage.
