Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

Those waves sound crazy. Why are they being released again in Wave 3?

It seems to pad them out. Means that can use less new moulds/figures per wave. Gives us new moulds/retools for longer before they start doing straight redecos

Isn't wave 2 megs, darkmount, red alert and soundwave?

Wave 3 should be dirge, blurr and i don't know what else...

Seems to be a bit of a misconception going around.....
Wave 3 is Red Alert, Soundwave, Megatron, Darkmount, Bumblebee and Drift

Wave 4 is said to be Dirge, Blurr, Megatron, Saoundwave, Red Alert and Prime

They seem to be doing cases with doubles of 2 new figures plus 4 from previous assortments. Wave 5 will probably just have 2 new figures as well.

How is the head of TM Waspinator connected to the body? I assume its ball jointed but is the socket on the head or the torso? basically want to know how hard a head swap would be.

To answer your question Gutsman,
Beast Wars TransMetal Waspinator's head is indeed connected to the body via a Ball and Socket joint.
The Socket being located on the body and the Ball located on the base of Waspy's neck.

Hope that help's mate, I'd've taken pics but I'm embarrassed by how incredibly dusty mine is.

thanks for the picture guide Sharky. My local stores are still stuck on Wave 1... so it looks like I won't be finding Dirge till 2011.
