Yeah, can't wait to get a hold of mine. I might end up getting two as well if Hasbro end up pulling their finger out and releasing him locally. The US just got wave 2 and 3 released (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-generations-classics-30-35/generations-wave-2-and-3-released-at-us-retail-170472/) simultaneously so we have officially fallen behind :mad: Seems to me that they just want to drive their customers online... *cough* Animated Arcee *cough*

First 'must get' from the WFC line of toys for me and very much looking forward to displaying him as 'Classics' Soundwave in my collection. :)

This is one nice figure and another winner in the WfC series. I was surprised how much articulation this figure has on the arms and legs, except there's no waist articulation. I like that both his weapons can be stored in his chest/windscreen and can be taken out of either mode easily and mounted on either mode too. Conversion was simpler than Bumblebee and Prime but still a lot of fun. Kinda like folding a sock inwards. ;)

The alt mode is tinier than I expected and not nowhere near as boring as pics made it look to be. Now for that 3rd "classic alt mode".

Best new mould of 2010 for me. It was a joy playing as and against Soundwave in WFC, and to own the toy is a real thrill. For extra quick Autobot destruction, point his front spikes up and attach his two accessories backwards for an ultra turbo boost. Then let the limbs flail. :D
