I've read from people who got Botcon Ginrai that they probably should have stopped even before.

Well they are mutated sea monsters, so they are supposed to look somewhat strange.
What exact issues did you have with them?
My BBTS Piranacon is in storage, but it did not have any deformations on the figures themselves. They did have some looseness in certain joints, but beyond that, they look pretty crisp, close to the originals.
Mold degradation generally manifests itself with loose joints and issues in transformation, but generally not with deformed parts or unsightly molding problems.
Even Classics Prime and more so with the classics Seeker mold which both are in the double digits number of uses have shown no actual deformations of the mold. They can suffer from looseness in joints in certain cases, but the actual molding is still functional.
Piranacon has seen a few re-releases but nowhere near the amount of uses seen by the Prime and the Seeker mold.

Another sign of degradation is molded detailing looking less sharp and crisp, but you'd really need to look closely and compare to actually see that. Plus, it's quite possible that the Classic Prime tooling has been restored in some minor areas.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

There is no way it is not happening that Bludgeon is way to specific in the parts to just be a one off.

Not to mention he comes with a redeco of Terri-Bull's vehicle aka Tankette. And I wouldn't be so sure about it happening, we still haven't seen Soundwave. I'd still want it to happen.
And is it me, or Bludgeon getting a lot of love lately. TFCC, RiD2015, and now this!

Was their a Soundwave besides the current leader one which I believe Takara already has?
