I think it's just a Canadian sale that's going on right now. They've only got a crappy back to school sale on pokemon lunch boxes and finger paints.
 
Yeah I pre-ordered one from Big bad just incase I dont find one at my local TRU. I'll head up there sometime in the week and if i get one, i'll just cancel my order.
 
Just picked up Sea Spray and Thurst. Curse you guys for making me do it.

I just got Blaster from a friend that went to SDCC so I have a few to open tomorrow.

I will be calling TRU Tuesday to try and get a Grimlock. Must have him.
 
Soundwave's always been one of my favorite G1 characters. To do him right, I started with an oversized G1 Soundwave (courtesy of kotoys.com)

Here is the list of modifications made to Soundwave:
- Plastic's been completely filled with epoxy to give him extra stability and weight.
- The articulated hands (all fingers move independently) are courtesy of Zildjian.
- The head was custom built using a variety of parts. (cast & available on ebay soon)
- The visor is clear red plastic and the head contains a red LED light, which runs to it's power supply and on/off switch in Soundwave's back.
- Soundwave's chest was also completely rebuilt and re-invented.
- Although "oversized" the chest was reconstructed to hold "regular" sized G1 cassettes.
- All details/mods were done w/ styrene.
- His waist also extends (telescope style) giving him another inch of height.
- His knees now bend back.
- His feet pivot to lay flat
- Decals were custom built and applied, most graphics are hand painted
- Embossed Decepticon symbol on chest is hand cut from styrene

This shot above with the "transformation" sequence is actually THREE Soundwaves ; WST (player), re-issue (mid-transformed), and oversized (robot)(as per the client's request)
 
In addition to the Masterpiece style Soundwave, the client requested the minions; Frenzy, Rumble, Laserbeak and Ravage. Here they are in some group shots:

Masterpiece / Articulated Laserbeak. Added ball joints to his legs, hinges so that the wings can fold. Head is retooled and on a ball joint. Guns on back moved closer together and re-pegged. Embossed Decepticon symbol and graphics on wings. YES he still transforms and fits in Soundwave's chest
