... Okay, so this has nothing to with Aion. But I just have to have a moment to complain and pout. This is as good a place as any.
So, I love Soundwave. (Clearly!) When they announced Botcon was going to be in Dallas this year in April, only 2 weeks after my brother's wedding I was heartbroken. No way I could go to it... not enough money or vacation time to spare for such short notice. But a friend of mine said he could snag me the toys if I wanted them. The theme was announced, "Shattered Glass". Which means, the bad guys are the good guys and vice versa.
My excitement mounted when they announced Soundwave would be included in the set as a good guy. I was totally set on getting him, and even told my friend to at least nab me Soundwave. Well... here. I'll just show you.
The artwork that got me all fangirl squeeing:
So cute, right?? Then today they posted the preview image for the toy:
=________= FAIL. Nothing like the artwork, even. Sometimes I hate being a girl liking boy things. I want a cute little face, instead we get this. He looks totally lifeless! And not to be super mean, the other toys do, too. At least I'll save my money, but still. How disappointing is that??
I need to learn how to mold so I can kitbash my own transformers. Seriously.
