    I wonder why the global fan-sites are so negative and sceptical. Do they get a lot of people posting up fake news?
    Or are they just oblivious of anything outside of their sphere of influence...

    You'd think that if they took 30 seconds to look at the source of the info (about Acid Storm and Soundwave), they'd see that it is from a well established source of reliable info (here and on TFW2005). Instead, Seibertron has posted it up as a "rumour" and to "take it with a grain of salt", while TFW has quite a few people disputing it as legitimate just because we've had three Japanese Masterpiece toys here, or because they can't believe it is possible that a non-American has obtained the info first.

    I rarely post there, but do it to make sure that the fans themselves get the correct info from the beginning... instead of having to fix it up later, being lost hundreds of posts later.

    Yeah. Because they do that all the time.

    And anyone didn't make this up. We have sources. Both Griffin and Ultra Mackness have emails from them and Griffin's describes the box Soundwave will come in and stating the price of $150, not $80 as you have repeatedly insisted, without sources I might add. There is no reason for anyone not to believe it.

    Ignore him. His type of creativity has him thinking everyone else does it too.
