BigBadToyStore.com has some new interesting listings on their website. Apparently, there are going to be several MP3 related devices that will soon be released featuring G1 Convoy (Optimus Prime) and G1 Soundwave! The best part of all: they're transformable!

--------------------------------------

Convoy iPod Docking Bay with Speakers

Two iconic products have merged to create the new Convoy iPod Docking Bay! Convoy is presented in an entirely white iPod color scheme and fully functional iPod Docking Bay with Speakers. This product is fully licensed by Apple. The trailer holds two speakers and all standard size iPods will mount in the center of the trailer to play your favorite tunes (iPod not included of course). Please note that the iPod Shuffle will not work with this product. An AC adapter cord is also included. Convoy himself will be the same size as the G1 mold and a brand new Convoy head mold has been used.

Product Number: TAK10694
Shipping Weight: 4.20 pounds



--------------------------------------

Soundwave MP3 Player - White & Blue

An inventive combination of exciting products, the new Soundwave MP3 player features an all new character mold and fully functional integrated digital music player! Soundwave is available in two colors, the traditional blue color scheme and also an all white color scheme in honor of the iPod. Soundwave's cassette door opens to reveal a Mini SD card reader (Mini SD card is not included). Batteries are requierd, but not included, we are currently not sure what size batteries are required. More information about this cool new MP3 player will be posted as we receive it. Takara requires us to buy equal amounts of each color, so be sure to grab your favorite or save $15 and get both together. The MP3 player will function in both cassette mode and robot mode. We expect this figure to be slightly smaller than the G1 Soundwave so it can fit comfortably in your pocket.

Our own Kern has stopped by with some news about new Transformers listing for Argos stores in the United Kingdom. Kern managed to get a hold of the latest Argos catalouge. Here is what Kern posted:


"Just snagged the new catalouge, so I thought I'ld share the goodness :)

369/4571 £19.99 (Picture states 'includes DVD'. And whoever designed the graphics seems to think that Ops transforms into Meggsy...)

Rodimus VTS of Tfans.com has reported recently sending an email to Hasbro asking about when the Toys "R" Us exclsive Commemorative Edition Soudwave would finally be on store shelves. Rodimus VTS has reported recieving a reply from Hasbro and here it is:

"Response (Kerry Bronson) 01/09/2007 08:32 AM
Hi Dennis,

Thank you for contacting Hasbro, Inc. We appreciate your interest in our product line.

The G1 Soundwave has just started shipping and is sold exclusively at Toys R Us. Please check with your local Toys R Us store or visit their web site at http://www.toysrus.com for availability.

Again, thanks for your interest!"

Because this could be a mistake on the person who replied to Rodimus VTS, this is only a rumor at this time.
