Metroplex already, where's Soundwave?

Well I have no problems finding them. One Walmart I was at today had 4 of them. They had 4 last time I was there about a week ago, so they're probably the same 4.

 

I've also seen a bunch of them at TRU.

 

I'd consider making a trade for an Alt. Prime, though I don't know about making trades with newbies.  :tftongue

i've been asking the same thing.  i live in tallahasse in-between pensacola, fwb, jacksonville, and orlando, and they always get stuff before us.  i got a false sighting today from my room mate.  called me up and told me he found a soundwave.  i said "really?  where?"  "oh, i found it at tru.  it's the small one.  pretty neat."  way to be tru.  target and wally world are just as bad, too.

It's odd.

 

I was at Target last night getting stuff and swung by their TFs and they had some Scrapmetals and one Repugnus (both of which I swiftly bought)

 

But today I was at TRU getting a bday gift for my sister, and with no intent but out of habit, I checked out their TF selections.  They had a couple of Soundwaves and a Metroplex, but nothing else that was new.  Nothing.

 

I didn't buy either for two reasons.  One, I didn't want to which leads to the second reason.  I have the GF versions of both, which IMO are much nicer.  Megalo Convoy has a lighter shade of blue that's not almost black.  And SWs blue is darker than the Cyb version and he has gold chrome on his inner wings and more paint apps.

If you have Metroplex, IMHO keep him. From what I undestand he's a lot better than Soundwave in both paint aps and articulation. As for Soundwave if you really want one I'm sure someone will gladly send you one if you make yourself heard. :thumb

I like Soundwave*has GF version* but to be honest....his legs/feet suck! With all that back kibble, I dare you to come up with an unassisted pose for him. The arm kibble, Sucks. Transforming him back to jet mode, Sucks. No matter what you do, it's never tight. I love Lazerbeak though. He looks so nice perched on Galvatron (they match).

 

I'd kill to have Metro. A bot that big, that's so posable. I can't wait to find him.

    • Please tell me this won't be the only release of TFP Cliffjumper...
    • If you've not had your fill of Transformers collaborative news today, here is some more with a leaked product listing for the Project Knight: Transformers X Knight Rider crossover. We've been dreaming of this one, and it appears a transforming K.I.T.T. will be coming as soon as August! It must be something big and or special with a $49. - Read the Full News Story
    • Tonight on GotBot Goes Live, we talked Transformers news for the newest multipack and some reissues. We also talked collaboratives with TMNT, an Ectotron reissue and, maybe, even Star Wars? Plus, we address the MP Ginrai teaser image and answer who is Riggorus?  
    • EDIT 2: Okay, I think my real problem with this was the marketing image. The main image shows four robot turtles standing together, so I was ready for four toys, not one. Admittedly, I was so disappointed that I did not bother to read the article fully. That's my fault. I apologize. That said, now that I understand it is THE van that turns into a robot, not "robot versions of the four turtles," that makes more sense, but I don't get the four heads. There are images here of a bandana free head which I gather is not included. I would actually prefer a non-specific generic turtle head for the robot. I think that would remove a lot of confusion. At least for me. EDIT 1: My bad, I misunderstood. It's one toy with swappable heads. So, you made a thing based on a four member team, and you only want to sell one toy? You're not even trying to get people to "Collect all FOUR!" You do understand how toy sales work, right? Original Comment: This is a perfectly fine idea executed TERRIBLY. You made four unique toys, each specific to each of the Ninja Turtles, that all turn into the same vehicle? It would be one thing if they joined together to form the van. There have been transformer sets like that before. This is just wasted opportunity. Not to mention, that van exists for the turtles to ride in together as a team, so if they can turn into vehicles ... what do they need a van for? I get that that's their van, and that's cute and all, but ... this is just dumb and disappointing. Why not think about what kind of car each of them would drive based on their personalities, or ask some car company if they want to do a tie-in promotional? What do I want with four copies of the same van and no one to ride in any of them? It makes no sense.
