The Retro Anime Reissues continue, with the 5th wave being Anime coloured Gen1 Soundwave with Laserbeak & Ravage, and Blaster with Steeljaw.

Continuing as Walmart exclusives in America, the 5th wave has just been revealed by Walmart, reverting to Gen1 in general, and sporting the new 40th Anniversary logo.... but continuing the theme of Anime redecos.

Since JB Hifi in Australia have now picked up the Retro Reissues this year, hopefully it means that they will continue to get the next waves, and list them soon for pre-order.

From the official product information that came with the official images, the release date suggests that they could be out this month in America... or that they got the date wrong, as they have listed the same release date for the wave 3 Perceptor toy.
