Well, my long search is at an end. After months of making the rounds between my local Wal-Marts, Toys R Us, and Target, I finally found a Transformers: War for Cybertron Soundwave. It’s been a very long time since I’ve had to hunt for a figure that hard, but lucky for me, I think it was worth it.
I don't really have a Transformers budget, but I try to keep an eye on the franchise. I was hooked as a kid and there are certain characters I just have to buy when they get a new version, a redeco, or a reissue. But an e-mail from reader Jason L. reminded of one favorite character that I've never had as a toy: Kup.
On our forums, I was just talking about how I'm not really into characters that are "badass for badass' sake", but then I turned around and do a Drift review. It would appear that my hypocrisy knows no bounds, but the truth is I haven't had a chance to read a comic with Drift. I bought him because he looked cool.
