Soundwave + 4 cassettes.

Here's hoping toyworld picks it up in ~september. Did they do classics nemesis last year? I forget. But we got rodimus and alt nemesis.

He would be worth it for Ratbat alone. However it would be best if he was released as Soundblaster instead of Soundwave since they are using the double cassette door mold and we already had the TrU version.

The Transformers Club have updated their information to suggest that it will be re-issued with the single deck

I have passed on every re-release of Soundwave so I might be tracking this thing down

It's a bit of a letdown, but I'm actually happy about it.
SDCC is traditionally redecos as new characters, but this year it is just a reissue, so I don't need to worry about paying scalper prices for a toy I already have.

It's a bit of a big set, so I'm not so sure it will appear in Toyworlds here like the previous 2 Alternators did (keep in mind, only one of the two toys from the last 2 SDCC's were available at AUS retail stores, so there is no guarantee this one will either). That said, maybe there is a second SDCC toy this year *that is a redeco*, and I will still have to hunt down something anyway. :)

I think the Shotpacked writer agrees
