There's no way the black Soundwave, if it does come, will ever be as detailed as the Toy's Dream Project version.
The Cybertron line as a whole > Galaxy Force.
We got Dark Crumplezone (Armbullet), Japan got nothing. It's being brought back over though e-Hobby.
We're getting Menasor (Gigolonia Decepticon drill) and Quickmix (Gigolonia Autobot mixer), Japan got nothing.
We got exclusives such as Downshift, Shortround, Wreckloose, Swerve, Swindle, Hardtop, Brushguard, Japan has a bunch of $100 repaints.
The only thing we got severly screwed on is the Scrapmentals. The JDM version, Ramble, came in 3 colors to match the show ... these repaints would ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE ... yet Hasbro refuses to do them.
Now, Galaxy Force Rambles in blue or yellow pull $100's on eBay.
I don't understand why the same clone trooper in red, yellow, blue, black, grey, whatever is done for starwars ... yet repaints in the TF line have to be totally off the chart.
