Bought this Transmutation Robot toy at Funan today, at a offer price of $13.90.
Not sure what this mold is based on
though the Hyper Red Jack Armor from an old "Armored Police Metal Jack" series. Anyway, I thought since the other Transmutation Robot packaging that has G1 Star Saber is good, this should be good too. However, when I saw the transformation, I was disappointed, as it is a semi-part-former. The legs need to be detached for transformation... sigh... was thinking of throwing it away, but then suddenly, I realised the canopy-backpack attached to the robot's back can actually be transform into a bird-like robot similar to DOTM HA Soundwave's Laserbeak! Just need to paint some eyes at the "head"... Now that's cool...
So decided to keep it and try to mod the legs to be fully transformable. Since this Transmutation Robot has a "Laserbeak" counterpart, I decided to name
him Sonicwave, and his pet bird, Laserhawk... and give it to Crossover Iron Man (car)...
Hope my Taobao haul will be smooth, or even in time for Christmas... but seems unlikely... hmmm, nevermind...
Edit: WTF!!! WTF!!! Saw in forum that HA Soundwave is out in Metro at $39.90 only!!! And I had to order mine from TaoBao at (est.) $71 including shipping! WTF !!! WTF !!!! ..... Sigh... Sigh... even the $20 savings from Leader Ironhide and probably another $20 (??? Need to check if OG is selling) from Ultraman Zero Eye Slugger Twin Sword set won't be enough... Hey wait, lemme do my Math again... hmmm... maybe can... but still, sigh... fact is a good $31 lost... sigh... and have to wait after Christmas, as even till now the (loose) Legends Trailbreaker still not reached Shanghai warehouse yet... WTH... WTH... sigh... sorry, just to relieve my frustration and disappointment here a bit...
