Never. Like Drift and RiD Jhiaxus before him, he's comic inspired.

I may cry from-HOLY CRAP, is that a seam on Soundwave's chest? Is it a door? Let it be a door. I don't care if he can't triple change into some form of "tape device" (he still might). JUST LET HIM TAKE THE TAPES!

Yeah I noticed that to in the other pictures. He has what also appears to be a clear tape sort of design within the chest. It seriously looks like it will open or that it has something in there resembling it. Either way just because they went to that much detail in trying to make him look original, I'm still gonna be happy about it even if he doesn't have the eject ability. x3

Wave Two is WFC Bumblebee, Prime, Megatron and Darkmount

According to BBTS the Generations Figures go in the follow waves:

Series 01:
Thrust
WFC Optimus Prime
WFC Bumblebee
Autobot Drift

Series 02:
WFC Optimus Prime
WFC Bumblebee
WFC Megatron
Darkmount

Series 03:
WFC Megatron
Darkmount
Red Alert
WFC Soundwave

So how can Prime, Megatron, and Bumblebee be in more than one wave? Makes no sense, to me. :???:

Decepticon. Pure Decepticon in that spark of his. Most Autobots (except Hardhead and Warpath) don't exactly transform into land-based artillery.

I have been waiting forever for a Straxus figure. I loved him ever since I first read #17. Soundwave, is just pure, epic, win. Megatron and Red are awesome as well.

Any idea on approximate dates for these waves?

Thanks.

Bahahaha, I think you're right! For the first time ever, Hasbro transforms all of a wave of their own toys properly. Yet the bad photoshop jobs still make them look kinda crappy. :lol:

Except Megatron, he probably looks better here...

Anyway, Megatron and Soundwave are both purchases, I've expressed my qualms with them before but it's nothing major.

Red Alert and Darkmount, while nice, will be skipped as I have no particular interest in the characters.

I'm gonna pick up all the WFC figures. Primus knows they are all HAWT! =P~

Wow Soundwave looks horrible, why does he have three fingers on his crotch?
The rest are cool.

For me, Soundwave is a must have!!! Cant wait

Thanks.

Entertainment Earth is calling for them to all be in August, so I would assume we would see Wave 2 in mid August and wave 3 in mid September.

That's a common practice. Certain figures that they assume will be the most popular often get released in more than one wave. It makes perfect sense, actually.

When we say a figure has a certain wave number, it means that the figure starts appearing from that wave on. That doesn't necessarily mean that the figure ships only in that wave.

Awesome, so excited for Red Alert. I already have Henkei Red Alert (and Inferno) so Classics Inferno will get a little buddy of his own now.

Also, is it just me or is the 'shooping getting particularly outrageous lately?

Ok, the "fingers on his crotch" aren't even ON his crotch. They make up the lower torso and represent his little buttons from his Earth mode. :-B

So...much...money is going to be spent on toys this year. I'm 27 and I think this will be the first year in a LONG time I'll honestly and seriously ask for toys for Christmas...I HAVE NO SHAME!

Also will have to invest in more shelves...which is fine by me.

If you think that's bad, you should try liking Transformers when you're heading off to high school. Yeah, a TF fan like me is definitely gonna get his butt whupped... :-s

But, as for the first part of your post...

Soundwave's head sculpt looks f'n awesome!

by **Tyrannotaur** » Thu Jun 24, 2010 10:01 am

I really hope Soundwave isn't short packed.. Maybe him and Megs will get a early Toysrus online release like Prime and BB.

I am also thinking that Soundwave will be able to go into his "stereo" mode, since he does so in the game. Spoiling this since the game just came out..

I'm only really interested in the WFC stuff, but Red Alert does look cool, so maybe.
