What's with those two being more expensive than your regular Voyager-class figure? I mean, it's not like those are new molds or anything; they're just repaints.

Ah, okay. Well... that sucks. I honestly don't care if a toy comes in a special case or regular packaging, and I have no interest in cards. I'd rather just get the figure in a regular box and pay the regular amount than pay five bucks more for extra stuff I didn't want.

I hope so. I wouldn't mind completing my Movie Seekers set since I already have Starscream and Thundercracker, so I wouldn't mind adding Skywarp to my collection, at least.

Speaking of the Wave 3 Deluxe-class figures they have started to hit stores

Bah. And I STILL haven't seen the Wave 2 Deluxe figures yet.
I guess I'll make the rounds again today; maybe I'll get lucky and Toys R Us will have restocked over night.

Outside of the new arm-thingy that goes where Frenzy used to go, it looks much the same as the previous versions of the toy does.
Still... it does make me wonder about the status of Frenzy in this movie. He's not packaged with Barricade, but he is supposed to be part of a Human Alliance Barricade figure. And events in the prequel novel suggests that he could come back... so... this could prove to be a nice little surprise, for some people, if he actually does make a return.

It's a straight repaint. I'll probably will pick this one up since I don't have the first one

I have the Premium version of the toy from the last toyline, but the addition of those arm-things gives me at least some reason to pick this new one up, as it at least offers something new.
I'm really looking forward to Mudflap and Skids, though, as well as the other Scout-class figures. So far, in addition to the 6 already released, I've seen pics of Scalpel and Reverb, and I know Ejector is going to be a toaster, but the rest remain a mystery. And as the Scout-class figures they have released have all been pretty cool, it gives me cause to feel optimistic about the rest of them, too.

Speaking of Skids I seen him in stores got to wait to get him until I get paid

There still hasn't been any sign of the Wave 2 Deluxe figures in my neck of the woods. Hopefully they'll be out at the local Toys R Us on Saturday, so I can get them before their sale is over.

Soundwave's Satellite mode ![](http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e264/andrew8798/soundwave_edit.jpg) And once again, I find myself approving of the changes they made to the Soundwave character...

Where does he insert the cassette tapes at? ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

According to the back of the Deluxe sized package his toy comes in, the "cassette tape" goes into his back through the top part of his satellite mode.

Man, I didn't think they could make me want to see this movie any more than they have, but they just did.
