    The awfulness of that soundwave sure reflects how bad Linkin Park is. Good work hasbro, you have redeemed yourself from shoving their shitty music into all the bayformers films with what is probably a complete accident.

    When they first showed LP Soundwave all Gold Chromed it was appealing (once you cover the LP logo with a Decepticon logo) this is just appalling.

    So does this Platinum Edition of Grimlock have the gold chrome or what? That's what keeping me on the fence on this guy. I think the gold chrome looks ugly but when Hasbro showcased the actual figure at Botcon recently it was the same figure as the one shown here. BUT in the packaging, you can clearly see a gold chromed Grimlock in dino mode.

    That Soundwave looks worse and worse everytime they show it. I can't wait to see how bad it looks when they show it off next year at Botcon.

    That Soundwave looks like creamed corn.

    Not selling as well as they wanted? Maybe trying to generate more hype...

    That LP Soundwave is almost as shitty as the band that inspired it. Why did they include the Laserbeak mold twice? Is the other one supposed to be Buzzsaw? Considering they are colored the same, using a different mold for the 4th cassette would make more sense. Not that I'll be littering my shelf with this piece of shit anyway.

    I'm not paying $125 for that turd. If I really find the need for Gold Tapes I will get some of the KOs that were made.
