Niiice. I haven't even opened mine yet but that makes me really want to!

It sounds wrong, but I really like what you did with the crotch piece. And thumbs!

Edit: SONOVA... my credit card is always letting me down when I need it most. All month long I had funds available and then all of a sudden MP Soundwave comes out and BAM! Declined. EFF YOU.

So now I have to put off other shit to pay for Soundwave. On the positive side, this is the first major Japanese MP I've been able to get at release since Megatron!

Thanks Yeah, I built it per the instructions first, but the look was bugging me so I spent the next hour rearranging parts...the crotch bugged me because it loooked like he wasn't wearing pants XD. And the thumbs too...the instructions had the exhaust pipes in various spots that didn't make a whole lot of sense, so I used them as thumbs, and then added the shoulder piece to mimic Hook's crane arm. Pretty happy with the result. I'm looking forward to opening the other ones

Nice. I might copy your design.

I still haven't opened mine, I'm considering waiting for BBTS to get their stock because they're offering the whole set for $34.99... I'll wait and see, if they don't show up in the next few days... I WANT MY SOUNDWAVE!

Soo, who's into RPG/Adventure videogames? I'm playing through Xenoblade Chronicles right now and finding it SUPER boring, mostly because of the ridiculously monotonous sidequests.

And I have a really strong urge to replay like every Zelda game I own, and Wind Waker because I have actually never played it. The upcoming HD update made me realize I really should, and everyone tells me it's a great game.

So should I soldier on and get through Xenoblade, or give in to the temptation of Zelda? I might even drag out the old N64...

Does anyone know if MP-13 is made in China or Vietnam?

Just watched the video review this morning. It's so awesome, but I don't want to ship mine just yet. Hope we get a cheap Hasbro one later this year.

Damn...the not-Black Arachnia reworking of the Perfect Effect Motobot is looking slick. And looks like there's even a Spider mode based on the blurred pic...or I wonder if it's like a spider back-pack that comes off?

[kirbenvost]

It looks like it could be a legit spider-mode to me, considering the size of the legs folded against the side of the motorcycle. Although... they picture the figure standing in the background, so maybe it could be just a backpack. Still, looks pretty sweet indeed... makes me consider picking it up, and Animated Blackarachnia too. I guess she fits in along with Airachnid and the various insecticons.

I never got the original PE motobots but I think I may have to get this one...

[kirbenvost]

I considered the pink one but I'm not entirely certain it would fit in with my Classics. I couldn't afford it at the time anyway.

Jeebus...an 18" tall third party not-Overlord. I wonder how much it'll cost.

[kirbenvost]

ONE MEEELION DOLLARS!
