Hasbro Masterpiece MP-02 Soundwave Taiwan Reissue

[dirge]

Im actually just after that mini diecast player that would go well with Blaster from Tracks.

I am actually quite interested in splitting it with you. If you're also interested, let me know.

Still waiting for some sort of version of MP Ratbat that doesn't involve needing to buy Soundblaster...

Great news

Might consider picking up a second one, depending on how much they're charging now.

Back in the day even at the full RRP of $150, for a set like this with all the cassettes was just insane value. To this day I still consider it be one of the best Transformers bargains of all time.

I did not realise panels in his feet opened for Frenzy/Rumble weapon storage. Not until I saw this pic.

Same! And here i've been playing with my toys like an animal and setting off the guns to the side!

If anyone isn't keen on the bonus die cast Soundwave cassette player, please send me a PM. Cheers!

I could tell you that the Hasbro and Takara have a completely different color scheme on MP-16 - (Frenzy Or Rumble, the blue/purple one)

Frenzy (Hasbro never bothered to switch the names, which I think they should've). And the difference is subtle*. The Hasbro version has a slightly brighter shade of blue/purple and the detailing on the chest is silver paint instead of chrome. Otherwise they're really quite similar.
