    I'd of liked an eye-colour swapping gimmick such as MP Grimlock's too, but this just gives me a reason to pickup another MP Soundwave beyond his already differing & likely Superior packaging.
    (Might even keep the Hasbro version MISB too! )

    I'm super excited about the hasbro masterpiece soundwave release, they have it right with these figures. Their mp-10 was fantastic, one of my favourites. MP soundwave and his cassette minions will make a fine addition to my collection.

    I like the green eyes on Acid Storm - another really nice touch that breaks the monotony of red eyes on the other MP Seekers (or yellow eyes in the case of Hasbro Skywarp) Personally for me, it's worked out well that Acid Storm is also using the new Seeker mould -- cos my Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker are all the old MP Seeker mould, but Sunstorm is the new one. If I get Acid Storm, then it means that my Rainmakers are actually a different mould (well, a heavily retooled version of the same mould) from my "regular" Seekers. Aaahh... if only they'd release the blue Rainmaker in this mould, I'd be one happy chappy! I can understand that it's probably too soon after MP Thundercracker to release another blue MP Seeker (even if it's a different shade of blue with a drastically different deco/theme), so releasing Acid Storm first makes sense. I just hope that "Blizzard Storm" (or wateva they decide to call him) will be released next. Anyway, all this combined with the upcoming Generations figures indicates that someone at Hasbro's actually trying to come up with some good ideas for Transformers, and this gives me hope.

    What would the odds be that Hasbro will release their version of Sunstorm next? They seem to be following TakTom's lead in terms of MPs, so even though TT Sunstorm was a limited run maybe that will be next?

    Maybe Soundwave having Yellow eyes is a sign?

    but probably not.

    While the Rainmakers are nice and all, it'd be even nicer if we got MP Dirge, Ramjet and Thrust.

    I would start selling my organs to get money for those, Masterpiece Conehead seekers is a amazing idea, c'mon Hasbro and Takara don't dissapoint me.

    Sorry I couldn't post yesterday (Was at a Kiss Concert)
    I love the look of Soundwave, though a little disappointed with the yellow.
    I'm hoping they'll include some sort of reflective red sticker to put on the visor if you wish to. Rumble and Frenzy look kind of... weird in the stock. They look very awkward compared to the Takara versions.
    I'll still get this, as it's basically near perfection (hoping!!!)
    Acid Storm actually looks pretty good to me. He may not match source material, (which is basically nothing) but as an addition to a seeker collection and as a figure in its own right as a toy, he looks sweet*!!! (*high pitched)
    The digital camo looks slightly out of place, but it still kind of works.
    The green eyes and cockpit are awesome as well.
    They both look pretty cool and I hope they get more stock than the last figures.
    I might email TRU about that now actually...

    I think it has a pretty high chance of happening - we're getting Lamborghinis & Datsuns, & the MP line seems to be moving away from 'Hey lets keep re-releasing Prime and the Seekers every 2nd week'

    Awesome to see this. Seriously if people don't have the TAK/TOM Soundwave they NEED the Hasbro one. Every adult Transformers fan needs this toy.

    Now,I personally chose the Takara version because A) I wanted the Red visor and B) The shambles that was TRU MP-10 was too much of a fudge-around to want to deal with again. but serisouly guys go buy this!!
