Here is something bizarre yet fun. Masterpiece Soundwave’s release through Amazon in Japan comes with a special, clear Energon cube accessory. What Takara-Tomy has released as a special bonus is an insert for that cube to represent when the Decepticons “filled” the Energon cubes with energy plundered from Earth. It’s a free download available from their site, and doubtless there’s a possibility here to make some custom Energon cubes to display with your Transformers.

OOOOOOOOhhhhhhh, they put the paper one inside the clear box. These must be easy to make then! Although, I wish they were gold with multiple colors thrown in…

Amazon gets an exclusive? hmm, and I was planning to buy mine from ToyArena.

That's exactly why I bought two sets of 10 from Unicron.com, to display between MP-04 & MP-05. They aren't the same dimensions as the ones that come with SW, but they'll do nicely I think.
True. But if you are gonna have more than one (Amazon) lying arond, I would think you would prefer to have the one(s) not attached to SW to be filled? Plus, since it's a free print out, I think it's cool to have the option.

^ I'm pretty sure the displays at shows had amazon exclusive written next to the figure. It's also pointless for an amazon exclusive to be 1 extra energon cube. My paper money is on the regular edition to come without any energon cubes.
Back to the paper fill out, I don't remember soundwave ever having a full energon cube on his chest. I can only remember him producing empty cubes.

every single pic of mp-13 with his accessories has a cube with him, the amazon pics have multiples
but don't worry, dr wu will cast and sell them just like he did the piledrivers (i hope, kinda want like 20 for a display lol)

I don't know if its been stated definately but all the official Takara pics show one cube as an accessory and in the resourses section two cubes are listed as the amazon.jp exclusive (not sure if this means 3 in total)

Actually, I remember an article where it was mentioned the Amazon.co.jp edition comes with two cubes, as opposed to all regular editions having one.
It may have been a mistake though, since I didn't hear anything about the cubes again.

Please verify where that info came from. Retailers like RK are listing the cube as a Amazon.jp exclusives. Retailers like tfsource list regular orders of MP13 without any mention of the addition of the cube.

Yeah, because a set of plastic cubes that do absolutely nothing is going to sell gangbusters on Wal-Mart shelves .

As important as Energon cubes were to Season 1…Hasbro needs to get off their butts and put a boxed set together

This reminds me a lot of the Unicron.com energon cubes. They come with this same sort of fold up paper insert, but not quite as bland as this pink one.

That's totally random, but at the same time, I love it.

Interesting stuff.

I wonder how the Cons will could get drunk off of this paper cube?
MegaDolrailer
Hold up hold up, all of them have the cube? but I preordered the Amazon one just for that!, what do I obtain that the others do not?!

Enough teasing, give us this thing NOW.

He looks to be shaping up to be the best soundwave of all time.

Well that's… neat… I think.
