    Still kinda puzzled there's not even been a hint of a black repaint of this guy by FT. I mean - Soundblaster fits their marketing plan too. After all, they've already completed 5 figures from Japanese Headmasters + more scheduled. And doing Buzzsaw & Ratbat also fits as they were in the JP series too. Poor Buzzsaw - always second fiddle to Laserbeak and the other cassettes.

    I’m telling ya, a BuzzSaw and RatBat two-pack would be FT’s biggest seller this year.

    I’d like an Autoscout thrown in, because that’s way easier to design.

    failing this, I’d expect Enemy colors

    Easiest thing Fans Toys could do, is release a set of repaints for Buzzsaw, Enemy, and Howlback (or another Ravage repaint)

    As much as I'd like to see their Ratbat design, I think an Overkill/Slugfest pairing would likely sell better than Buzzsaw/Ratbat

    Got invoiced by ShowZ for the reissue. Even though they just said the price would be 185-200 in the ShowZ thread, the final price is now 235 (233 with a PO). That's a pass for me. Gonna roll the dice on the $168 price on TFs Express.

    Ironically, last time I ordered from them, they sent me the wrong version of Newage Soundwave, but now I own both toy and toon decos and quite pleased with both!

    same here, I will consider it for the 13 days left since I'm also waiting for MP Skyfire, so wondering why is this release so expensive?

    I don't understand why he is so expensive, at least now he is a little bit cheaper than the first release that had, if I remember correctly, the same price as the US release which was pointless.

    I also don't understand how they could give a price range and miss it by so much, specially hours before sending out the invoice.

    Well I just woke up to a price (points credited) readjustment for Acoustic Wave at Show.Z, seems they are infact going with the $170 ish price

    Can someone who hasn't paid the invoice in full confirm what the new final price is?

    Thanks!

    I still haven't been invoiced for the re-release, but I checked my account just now and the final price is now showing as $170.99. The actual listing still displays the final price as "unknown for now" though.

    The reduced price is welcome news! I was waiting, holding off on pre-order, it felt like a mistake. Especially since, in my experience, once I get invoiced for a pre-order, they officially reveal final price on website within a day or two.

    I have the same showing now. So with the deposit final price should now be $173USD.

    Too late for me. I ate the $2 deposit and still saved a little. $168 at TFs express (thnk it was cheaper if you POd) and it already shipped 2 days ago.
