Does anyone know what Soundwave will cost? If he is $80 like Thundercracker, I might snag one -- if I find one.
If he is $140 like prime was, I'm out :(

There may not be a TRU release. So he will be pricy.Quote:

Nope, but it does include Laserbeak. But checking on this info it seems that BBTS has their Soundwave pre-order at $199.99. I guess the low price was for us super-early pre-orderers.Quote:

From what I could tell during a casual ebay search, I could get all five G1 dinobots for around $300. That seems like a better purchase. Nah, these are too costly if they are over $120. I could justify it with Prime since he came with Roller and the trailer. Harder to justify that with Soundwave and a lot of others.
I got my shipping notice from HLJ for Rumble (red) and Ravage.
$45 shipped from HLJ compared to $60 without shipping from BBTS. I got a great deal and I'm glad I still have Frenzy (blue) and Buzzsaw on pre-order with HLJ
I swore I wasn't going to collect this line but dang, Prowl is awesome.

Just give yourself to wanton commercialism, F-Deuce. You know you want to and it would make you so happy!Quote:

Actually, I do have quite a few Alternators as well. And I compared Sidewsipe next to Subaru Smokescreen and Sidewipe is about 1/4" to 1/2" shorter. He's actually pretty close in height to the Alternators and looks pretty good next to him. The real difference is girth. The Alternators tend to be a bit chunkier than the Masterpiece Transformers. But pictures speak louder than words so here's a couple of pics you can use to compare visually...Quote:
