Looks like Takara might be trying to make up for Kissplay. BBTS has put up a pre-order page for a new Soundwave toy that is actually an MP3 player. Fully transforms and plays music via a Mini SD card reader. At a size that’ll be a bit smaller than G1 Soundwave, we finally have our Classics Soundwave. Word is there’ll be two versions, one in Soundwave’s colors and another in ipod’s standard white. There’s also going to be a Convoy figure released with a remolded head and an ipod docking station trailer with speakers, which is a neat novelty. All three can be found here:
This may not be newsworthy, but I thought it was still definitely worth sharing. The other night, powet.tv cohort, Zac Shipley, instant messaged me the following link:
Basically, it has several pictures of a car from the late 70’s. The red version is a dead ringer for the new classics hot rod figure. The only thing missing is the flames on the hood, the yellow spoiler and engine block popping out of the middle of the hood. Have a look for yourself!
Well, seeing as Zac, Caleb, Sean, Crazy, Sam and who knows who else have arrived at Botcon while I’m stuck at home behind a monitor, it’s my job to relay any information they pass on to me, as well as organizing all the information and links available throughout the net regarding this year’s Botcon and Transformers.
Ben Yee has put up a few reviews of the upcoming Classics figures, which includes pictures as well. Hit the link below to check out Prime, Bumblebee, Rodimus and Astrotrain.
It’s just been discovered that there’s some new Classics protos over at the Japanese patents office. It’s a bit of a hassle getting through their site, so I’ve mirrored the images here. They’ve also updated with Prime and Starscream, but it’s nothing new. In additon ebay seller SPY_Toys has Classics Grimlock for sale.
