Wow... it was there just a couple hours ago when I posted about Soundwave's page being taken down.Quote:

If that's the case, I'm not not a 'true fan' either so you are not alone. We can be 'Non True fans' together!:DQuote:

I did read the reviews and seems like a turn off but still I don't think its going to harm me in the end?
yah I would think so, I have no problem with that though. Like said a True crazy nut wouldn't care and buy it. That doesn't mean you are not a Transformers fan, I meant towards the all out to "collect them all" kind of people. sorry if that sentence kind of put some of you guys off. gee... my bad.Quote:

But in any case, I am glad I got someone to get one for me from a store. I prefer to buy instore. Yea I can miss out but knowing it was actually coming out here to stores I wanted to give it a chance to get it that way. Lots of other things however I buy online (Generations, Tak MPs,) when I am not so sure we are going to get them. The latter I know we won't get instore, earlier we used to with MP Magnus, but as far as I know he was the only one to come to Target, and Ghost Starscream to Toys R Us.
Okay whatever dudes......I am sorry. My context was meant for the crazy nut who collects all.
Give it a rest and move on.
Were you able to buy soundwave online on TRU? If so how much was he online? I just ordered one from BBTS with some other transformers. Got Acid Storm from the TRU website though :D
EDIT: Don't worry, just found the price on the news page :D - I'm out $50 but oh well.
my acid storms arrived today, quick postage toys r us , well done
