I feel left out, I haz no MP Soundwave, only have MP 14, it was my first and I'm guessing last due to the cost :(
Rumble is on his way, only one day difference when I ordered, shame they couldn't combine my orders :(
I guess this kinda sits in the Soundwave theme.

Got my MP Soundwave yesterday... had to undertake a small repair on mine. His right foot could not align perpendicular to his leg (such that he'd lean backwards about 20 degrees - straight out of the box).

Thankfully I didn't need the skills of Hook; few screws out on the top of the foot, manipulate it as it was supposed to and the mechanism aligned itself. Screws back in and its like nothing was ever wrong! :D

...and I only found the coin today when I went to throw away the box. It was packed between the outer box and styrofoam packaging. That was lucky!

Hmmm, Thundertron's supposedly voyager size right? Is it really small :( in person christalcase? I'm just basing it from the other figures beside it.



@Crankcase: Nice acquis mate! ooooh accessories you say.... best of luck those little buggers are quite hard to find, but IM sure they're out there...who knows there might be some in them boxes at Parra fair. Ill keep an eye out ;). Im used to scavenging for G1 accessories heheheh :D:p

Now that you mentioned it, Thundertron does seem small. I thought it was the angle at first but Thundertron's only barely larger than Kickback in alternate mode (they're around the same length as Generations Kup). Thundertron's definitely bigger than Bumblebee and has more mass than Deluxes though.

If you want to measure it in weight then Thundertron's something like 130g and Kickback and Bumblebee around 90g ;)

I got a Thundertron the other day too so here are some size comparison pics I took

Robot Mode (With FE Optimus, FE Bulkhead, RiD Vehicon, RiD Wheeljack and RiD Ratchet)

Robot Mode (With RiD Megatron, RiD Dreadwing and RiD Magnus)

Alt Mode (With FE Optimus, FE Bulkhead, RiD Vehicon, RiD Wheeljack and RiD Ratchet) umm somewhere between front on and above (Pokemon Camera angle)

Alt Mode (With FE Optimus, FE Bulkhead, RiD Vehicon, RiD Wheeljack and RiD Ratchet) FROM ABOVE
http://i50.tinypic.com/14b85ea.jpg

In my opinion he's decently sized, his Lion/Liger mode feels kinda short but it's still taller than most vehicle modes. it's fairly long but still feels kinda small and stubby, his robot mode is really good size wise, coming up to almost FE Optimus's heighs but skinnier

Paulbot
5th February 2013, 10:51 AM
Good comparison pics. Seeing the robot mode and the height of beast mode gives a good sense of scale. The peg leg looks silly though. Thanks.

$60 plus $22.50 for postage on ebay, got him 2nd hand 100% complete and boxed. He stands roughly as tall as cybertron starscream supreme class and i would assume probably an inch off from any unicron supreme class toy. So yeah he is freaking tall...

It's a good toy. :) I believe there was one member that has it for sale other than Stencilator ( I bought it from him)....He's officially under the generations line too. so he fits in with the Classicverse shelves :).

Just got home to find my beast hunters optimus prime and Predaking. Opened them up transformed them and had a bit of a look. I really want to like them. They just feel so light and so cheap. Im sure they will also look better with some paint. But can't do that till I see the show to get it right.

More and more im thinking of only getting mp figures and 3rd party bots. Sure they cost more but I don't feel as ripped off. Come on Hasbro I would rather pay a bit more for a good quality figure. Won't be importing more Hasbro.

Hope my 3rd party omega shows this week that will make me feel better. Its still at customs.

huh, I took the photo with my camera, and it was sideways, I messed around with it a bit before posting to Photobucket, I must have flipped it as well as rotating it. :rolleyes:

good catch, I never noticed. now that you've pointed it out it nearly hurts my brain to look at it.

I thought you might've taken a pic of it's mirror reflection... but then, why would you do such a thing?!?!?!?? :confused::eek::p:D

Got my MP Soundwave yesterday... had to undertake a small repair on mine. His right foot could not align perpendicular to his leg (such that he'd lean backwards about 20 degrees - straight out of the box).

Thankfully I didn't need the skills of Hook; few screws out on the top of the foot, manipulate it as it was supposed to and the mechanism aligned itself. Screws back in and its like nothing was ever wrong! :D

Mine has the same problem :( so it's good to know that it can be easily fixed. Thanks. :)

Hey Stug, just a suggestion, probably, if you could make a detailed description,(shame you weren't able to take pics while you were repairing it) in the Ratchet's repair bay section so we can sticky it and serve as a reference for future members who may encounter the same problem. You could post pics of prolly just which screw you took out, etc etc, mebbe pointing to it, but don't fully re-create it as I know yours is already fixed :p. wouldn't wanna have it broke again hehehe.

Same. I didn't even know that existed! . I only knew of the green/purple one.
That's 1994's "Combat Hero" Megatron, and it is an _excellent_ toy. :) Completely different mould from the 1993 green G2 Megatron -- smaller, but way better. Whereas 93 Megatron is a brick, Hero Megatron has a fully articulated/poseable robot mode (13 points of articulation off the top of my head).

1994/95 actually saw some really good toys coming out, as Hasbro experimented with making Transformers into proper articulated action figures. While it was Beast Wars that refined and popularised/standardised this concept, it did have its roots in later G2. It's a shame that by time these toys came along, G2 had brought Transformers to an all time low and a lot of these toys just shelfwarmed badly despite their awesomeness (I can still remember seeing mountains of Laser Optimus Primes languishing in stores :().

Hero Megatron is also an example of a Megatron toy that, IMHO, was better than its Optimus Prime counterpart (that doesn't often happen as HasTak usually engineers better Optimus Prime toys). Hero Prime is a nice toy, but IMO Megatron was better made. The way Prime's hose bends in such an awkward way irks me (unless you attach the pump upside down -- Megatron's pump attaches much better and gives you enough slack to move the toy around properly). Yes, the colours are weird and the orange pump itself is an eyesore, as are the massively oversized missiles (it works better on Laser Optimus Prime's trailer due to the larger scale), but overall it is one very impressive action figure that's just loaded with endless hours of fun play value! :D This mould was also used for G2 Archforce, Destructicon Bludgeon and Robot Masters Reverse Convoy (the latter 2 were never released here).

Pretty sure Australian Consumer Guarantees are only enforceable in Australia. RK may choose to offer an exchange but if not there's very little you can do except contact the local consumer affairs office (http://www.consumer.org.hk/website/ws_en/) and lodge a complaint.

I have one so far: (not the normal soundwave)

I'm pretty sure it's a legit toy, the plastic feels really good, the paint apps are immaculate. There are no paint apps on the foot, but that colour is not anywhere on this version and on the regular release soundwave it's in many places so I guess they just left it off.

The only curious thing is there is one panel on the chest that is black where the same panel on the retail release of normal soundwave (included for comparison here) is blue. it's odd that it's not white as I would have thought it would come off the same sprue as the other white pieces, though maybe they were able to gate it off one sprue set and onto the other. it looks like that in the instructions (http://www.transformerscustomtoys.com/electromagnetic-soundwave-activator/)picture that was leaked years ago also, so I'm satisfied it's the real deal.

Now I just need an animated RAMJET... sigh, not for $100 though (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Japan-Exclusive-Activator-Ramjet-TRANSFORMERS-Animated-second-chance-takaratomy-/150994104108?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item2327f32f2c)

Got my MP Soundwave yesterday... had to undertake a small repair on mine. His right foot could not align perpendicular to his leg (such that he'd lean backwards about 20 degrees - straight out of the box).

Thankfully I didn't need the skills of Hook; few screws out on the top of the foot, manipulate it as it was supposed to and the mechanism aligned itself. Screws back in and its like nothing was ever wrong! :D

I have to take this back; this repair didn't work. :( Was trying to photograph him to do a repair guide as suggested as Liege... and the foot movement became restricted again once I moved it around a bit.

So I spent last night completely disassembling the foot and affecting [minor] repairs. This time I think it's a permanent and I took pictures as a I went so I'll try and post a guide in the repairs section later.

No worries, it's been on my radar for over two years now. pity is my animated collection is still either boxed or packed away.
my display is focused on Prime, FOC and the dregs of the last movie, I'll be cycling back to animated at a later date. He's on display but looks pretty out of place. it's a good feeling to finally have it. i need to get out my other animated soundwaves and get hold of the ratbat version and take some group shots.

It was released by Hasbro HK (Hasbro Asia) at the end of January in time for the Chinese New Year. Amazon America aren't expected to be getting theirs in until about April.

I'm interested in hearing as well where he got the YOTS Omega from too... as I'm getting tempted to cancel my Amazon order and pay the extra $10-20 from an Asian source, just because I can't wait that long. :o

Just to make people drool..... Packaging is simply amazing.

I ordered mine from Robot Kingdom. Don't know if it's still in stock.

Acquisition wise, this week I picked up DOTM commander Ironhide from Red Dot and DOTM Armored Top Spin, Air Raid and Darksteel from Reject Shop. God bless discount shops.

The YOTS Omega is available from BBTS'as well. Ive already got mine on the way. It was sitting in my POL for a month now. BBTS got their stock around early February. That's when I was charged' $99.00.

ummm isn't there a separate cyberverse wheeljack out now? How much is it worth now on clearance btw?

griffin
24th February 2013, 01:35 PM
There is a separate one, but I don't think it is on clearance yet, and it's colours don't seem to appeal to most people... so for this one for a little extra, you get the spaceship he was using in the cartoon as well.

GoktimusPrime
24th February 2013, 02:34 PM
Yeah, I got the separate one yesterday, it's called "Hyperspeed Wheeljack" which is a repaint of this mould. The colours are a homage to Diaclone "Marlboor" Wheeljack, which is why I bought it (I don't collect Diaclone, so I'm never gonna get the actual Marlboor Wheeljack, but I like the reference this toy makes). But yeah, the one that Stug got has more show-like colours and comes with the vehicle/playset, which as griffin mentioned, is used in the cartoon anyway. :)

Stug
24th February 2013, 04:38 PM
Just as Griffin and Goktimus said; the separate/Hyperspeed Wheeljack is devoid of green completely and didn't impress me when I saw it in store. The one in the playset; the green detail evokes a nice G1 look (as I intend to slip him in with the G1 Legends).

The set was $29 on clearance at Kmart.

Woo! I got Happy Meal Breakdown! :D It was free too! I went through a Maccas Drive Thru and asked them if they had the 2nd Happy Meal Transformer toy, and I said "The first one was Starscream." The girl said, "I don't know, you'll have to go ask at the front window." So I proceeded right past the payment window and to the front collection window where I asked the same question. The guy there showed me Breakdown and I said, "Yeah, that's it," then proceeded to take out my card. He said that he couldn't accept card payment from that window and asked if I had any cash. I said that I only had 45c on me. He then said, "So how did you expect to pay?" and I told him honestly that the girl operating the cashier had instructed me to come directly to the front window. He then just gave me the toy and said, "Alright, have a nice day sir." Yay! :D
