I've decided my Masterpiece Soundwave needs a larger posse than the official figures. What's everyone's favorites?
Only other options available in mp mini-cassettes are really the KFC cassettes. Qc can be a bit hit or miss since they are fairly old, but they are starting to work on some v2s
While not the most sophisticated version of the cartoon figure, I like the look of the iGear Autoscout best. KFC made one, but has tape details on one side, there was another that was sold with a variety of Chug style weapons. Good luck tracking it down, though IGear Autoscout 3rd party Transformers Soundwave Cassette - purple case version | #1882300059
Nope, the Takara/Hasbro uses the same size as G1, so any of the originals will work as well. Except the Classics Ravage that comes with Hound, that won’t fit as I recall. So I assume the tapes made for Sonicron might work for MP Soundwave And the iGear one came with crystals. And some Kramzeeks
Do you want more in scale robots? If so (some of) the MMC Cassettes look fantastic with him and have more shelf presence. They just don't fit in his chest in cassette mode: My personal preference from a pure display perspective: Takara: Laserbeak, Buzzsaw and Rabat MMC: Ravage, Frenzy and Rumble KFC: Autoscout There is a set of KFC Slugfest/Overkill and Squawktalk/Beastbox too but they aren't that good imo. Would love to see bigger MMC versions:
These were the BTS tapes I was talking about, I don’t think they look very good but they are an option TFW BTS Toys Nightfang & Savage, Tremor & Frequenzy Galleries - Transformers News - TFW2005 Additionally, there’s the tapes that will go with Fanstoys upcoming MP like Soundwave, but I haven’t heard confirmation on if the tapes are the same size or not.
