Soundwave's winning the moral victory though. "Strike them down with all of your might and your journey to the Dark Side will be complete!" ;) :p

Posted several comparison pics between Hasbro and TakaraTOMY MP Soundwave & Cassettes here.
Going slightly off the main topic but it has been pointed out to me that Megatron in alt mode (accessory) fits nicely in Fanstoys Quakewave's hand.:)
Is it correct to say the Takara's version has a better paint job overall?
And the hasbro version is more like best bang for buck version?
I looked at my Hasbro and the paint quality is average in fact my acid storm looked like it had a better paint job.
I only have a couple small paint issues on my Soundwave, mainly on the gold paint around the chest cavity.
the eyes not having a smooth visor is frustrating but I'm not returning it and going without just for that.
the problem I have with the Laserbeaks head camera is liveable.
Yes, yes, that's all very cool, but where are they supposed to go when he's in cassette player mode!?? :cool:
YES! That happened with the left articulated index finger on mine as well!! And I'm paranoid it's gonna just drop off and disappear soon, as whilst it's easy to pop back in, it's still rather loose. You're the only one who's mentioned this here as far as I've read, and I wonder if it's therefore an uncommon thing?? Unlucky us!
Mine has popped off also.
Same here for the finger, and after a while I decided not to play with it and play with Acid Storm which I actually had a bit more fun. Might have to do with the Macross thingy.
MP-10's finger would pop off. Didn't happen with Soundwave, but then I've only transformed him 3 times.
