Do they know something we don't or are they just speculating as well??????
Edit: And they have also lowered the MP-12 AND the MP-12A price to $99.95.

Their prices are tentative (but they say accurate from source), but are as follows:
Both Sideswipe and Red Alert cost $99.95
Soundwave is priced at $159.95
And apparently will be available before Dec this year!

Since these are the prices for US online retailer, hopefully they will be slightly cheaper from asian online retailers.
Dammit...I cave and get a new Soundwave (or two), and then a month later an MP version gets announced. And I want it.
Lambor looks pretty pricey, might wait on sales for that one.
I still dream of an MP Lugnut though.
Eveyone does, even if they don't remember when they wake up :pQuote:

Really hope the $159.95 pricetag means he'll be bigger than MP Sideswipe - but then again it might just be because there's a Laserbeak or Ravage thrown in.
Regardless, it just wouldn't feel right if he was standing shoulder to shoulder with the midget Sideswipe.
Red Alert is no surprise either - but a welcome bit of news nonetheless
CONSIDER THEM BOUGHT AT THAT PRICE OH YEAH OH YEAH
Imagine if Soundwave is the same size as Sideswipe, but comes packed with 6 (or even 10) Cassettes... now that'd be worth the price.
(Soundwave is simple enough to engineer, so they could spend time and resources on having a BIG compliment of cassettes... if it just has one like the original, I'll be disappointed)
Worse case is that some 3rd party comp will start dishing out cassettes for MP-13Quote:

Who wants to take bets on whether 13a will be soundblaster:rolleyes:
If they are going to a smaller size with the mp I'm glad that the price is reflecting that. I think that soundwave will still be bigger than sideswipe and the extra cost will get us rumble, ravage and laserbeak. The inevitable soundblaster recolour and hopefully retool should have buzzsaw, frenzy and maybe a new mold ratbat.
Sideswipe and red alert were both short in the original cartoon and I don't mind that the toys look like they are smaller than the new mp prime, that will keep them in scale and as long as the future mp release keep that trend up they wont look out of place.
I'm also going to call it now mp14 will be prowl, 14a will be blustreak and 14b smokescreen
