February Finds

[Hursticon]

That is one ice cold looking robot!!
Congrats..

Thanks man, I absolutely adore his treatment in this cartoon and especially after the latest episode!

Is he the Takara AM-09 Soundwave? He's dreamy

Unfortunately no, he is indeed the regular Hasbro version but I will agree that he is indeed a very dreamy figure.

His show accuracy is very impressive!

Isn't it? - I mean, factoring in that his on-screen proportions are so extreme in a lot of ways I am really glad that this figure has come at a time that it did; if this was 10 years ago I don't think he'd look anywhere near as good as he does.

A bit late on the posting of this one as have been doing a fair bit of E-bay shopping as i am Aquirering some TF's that i have been looking for. but got this on the week of the Parra fair.

*snip*

so cranky will be posting a few more soon.....

I still love seeing the last pic of him still in box, such a delicious looking thing it is!

Yeah pretty much - it helps to flesh out the character, but it's not an absolute essential part of the plot. Also... mucho fan service.

From what I'm lead to believe, fan service is a fairly accurate term.

Given that he's reportedly short packed and not easy to find - I don't blame you. I've only ever seen him in stores twice, and both times there were only one or two.

...Too right , not to mention that it's the same story with Wave 2 which is absolutely ridiculous as the BBs from Wave 1 will of still not left the shelves they're warming so why have yet another 3 BBs to a case!?!... Such ridiculousness IMO.

That's what Odie calls Transformers Prime: Robots In Disguise. Prime Robots In Disguise... umm... I forget what the E stands for. Estonia?

I think the 'E' is whacked in to signify: Edition - Which would technically be a fan term at this point.

He's the regular TF Prime RiD figure - available now at Toys R Us!

Yep, sure is - He's just lit and photographed in a way that accentuates his utter awesomeness!
(I haven't been this enthralled with a figure since RTS Lugnut! )

'cept for the lack of any logos.

I too was a little miffed by the absent little faction logos he has on his upper arm/shoulder, but then I think "Well, he is supposed to be an unmarked military surveillance drone..." which suites me fine.

That's a Hasbro paint job? I'm impressed!

Believe it or not, he really does have a great deal of paint, but the plastic used is superb!
His paint apps are comprised of some Magenta highlights, Black panelling and flaps, Royal Blue collar highlights and inner forearms as well as some Silver accents on his head.

Mind you, I'll still be very curious to see what the Takara version looks like as I'll likely grab it too for the bonus Micron figure; plus this mold really is worth a 2nd purchase.
