wandered into one of our local Lifeline stores today on a whim & managed to turn up two TF's in their toy baskets... First one was Tantrum - in fairly good condition (has some chew-marks on his horns tho) but with no weapons or predaking parts...

2nd one I found there I have absolutely No idea who the heck it is.... can someone help me ID it? (I've already tried TFU.info, but had no real joy.. I think it could be a gen2 fig? not sure.. and a quick scan thru my scanned copy of the Generations book didn't help either...)

Bot Mode

Alt Mode

And seeing as both cost me $au1, I'm rather stoked

Thanks!

Yup, they were released there, too. They weren't released in the US, so MW Soundwave was its US debut.

I own the MW Soundwave mode and it made me mad that it came with a missle launcher elsewhere but not in the US cause Hasbro thought it would be a choking hazard!
