Really Paradigm, well the only delay I ever heard was packaging rights, after that there was no delay other then maximize the sales and bring it out on June 2nd with the movie toys.
Why not capture the old fans hearts with a reissue soundwave and sell into another new breed of fans including children with the movie line. I know originally the reissue was supposed to be released practically December 06- to Feb 07 but good ole Hasbro (Canada) stopped that!
Unless someone can come up with a new reason why it was delayed? Let me know and let us all know. Unless I am totally wrong here? Other then that its all hearsay when it may actually show up.
