I've got the Soundwave that came out with all bar one of his classic tapes. That was a good value set.

This one does look nice. Fortunately (for me) I still have an original Soundwave in the box. WHAT?!?! New record for longest unopened Transformer??

I'm sure it's been opened - I'll check. (I have a box somewhere with that, Megatron & Starscream all boxed up but I know I opened the Megatron and then put it back in. Just nice to own them with the boxes).
If only Megatron could be re issued like the others...

I have the old bookstyle reissue one where the mould was remade from a Soundblaster so it has the sticky-out window. I was happy with it at the time though could be tempted by a proper 'flush' window version. Having got worried about what I told you all yesterday I've just dug my bookshelf Soundwave out to check the chest window an it's all but flush with the body on mine. If there's aything in it, it's certainly < 1mm

Got my Hobbymart £10 Chinese reissue from 94 still tucked away in its foam pellet filled posting packaging. Had it out a few times but always put it away for safe keeping. Got my second hand junker from the late 80s early 90s and my TRU reissue and Soundblaster with Wingthing and Enemy.
Do I need this one too? No. Will I get it anyway? Quite possibly. Though it feels like an in person purchase so either Asda stock it or Im on holiday in the US while its out.

I'll take your word for it as mine is at the back of a cupboard with a few dozen very heavy boxes in the way. -Ralph

Remind me when you next come down and we'll dig it out - it's in the tape box in case I panic that it's not in it's original box, like I did earlier!

The one you/I have used the Soundblaster double width chest.

No, Ralph has the same as me: I have the old bookstyle reissue one where the mould was remade from a Soundblaster so it has the sticky-out window. I was happy with it at the time though could be tempted by a proper 'flush' window version. This one Ralph:

Sorry, my mistake. I read on TFWiki that the only reissue with the sticky out chest was the TRU Commemorative one, so when Ralph said he had that one I thought that was what he meant.

I know there's a tape addict in your house, but how many Soundwaves are there? None more! At least, not that I'm aware of. Tape addict my conjunx might be, but she's a very particular tape addict, in that she only cares about the Autobot ones. Which is a very peculiar condition indeed. Consequently the only Decepticon tapes she has are the ones that came packaged with Autobot ones that she wanted...

More Minibot reissues coming: Gears & Warpath snakas.blog95.fc2.com/blog-entry-6908.htmlWhereas the last set were all from Encore 10, these - and hopefully the rest of the set - are from TFC12. Phil needs these!

Oooh - now I'm interested. Gears is a minibot I've never owned, so this could definitely be tempting. Even just for the packaged version. I mean, just look at those colours on that card...
