    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

    I seem to recall having one of those that was scaled for G1, they're a different size, right?

    I've always preferred the one from TFC since it also comes with a bunch of crystals.

    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:
