Toys Crank it Up! First Images of Studio Series 86 Soundwave (and Friends)

Nune over at TFW2005 has posted the first pictures of Studio Series 86 Soundwave along with Buzzsaw, Laserbeak, and Ravage mini-cassettes. All are brand-new molds as opposed to remolds/repaints of the existing figures. See the gallery below for images of all four figures in both modes.

My boy ravage. What have they done to you! :)

In all seriousness, Soundwave looks nice and I am severely tempted to add it to my collection just to get that Buzzsaw.

Ravage looks great, except for how high those missiles are sitting. I thought they were something else at first glance!

Birds look good, except for how straight the wings are. I wonder if they can be adjusted. Pity about the big gaps in tape mode, though.

It's okay, and I consider the tapes a downgrade for the most part. A big problem for Hasbro is that the Siege mold came pretty close to perfection, and then a little retooling got even closer. But they can only release so many variations on that mold before even die-hards stop buying it, so they had to try again from scratch...and I don't think this is better for all that it's bigger. Heck, if you're going to do another Leader Soundwave, it needs to turn into Dancitron as a third mode or why bother? The design suits the Voyager class quite well if you're just doing robot/microcassette recorder.
