![]() “I was happier, better rested, and not in pain,” she says. A month of binaural beats later, Trimberger says she noticed something miraculous. Thinking “it couldn’t hurt,” she listened and found the experience was better than she expected.Īfter just 10 minutes, she became relaxed enough to better tolerate her pain.Įncouraged, she listened again, night after night. When Trimberger first learned about binaural beats, she says she began searching and found a free recording online. “Anxiety and stress are some of my largest triggers,” she says, adding that the medications she’s tried have only left her groggy and feeling “out of it.”īut nine months ago, Trimberger found something that did help her feel better: a soundwave phenomenon known as binaural beats - subtle, surreal beats that are sometimes cocooned in relaxing music and seem to pulsate deep inside the brain. Trimberger, who owns a company that makes small-batch beauty products, also has trigeminal neuralgia - a facial nerve disorder often called the “suicide disease” due to its painful and hard to control flare-ups. “I find it hard to be motivated and am generally jittery,” she says. ![]() Massive props to Hasbro for putting out such an incredible set at a relatively decent price.Share on Pinterest Design by Ruth Basagoitiaįor as long as she can remember, Jessica Trimberger has lived with anxiety. In the end, if you have not bought this figure already, then get out to Toys R Us ASAP and pick it up as it is already becoming hard to find. In terms of action figures, I would go as far as to say it is one the best I have ever owned, purely for how it achieves everything so perfectly.īut then I gush about most figures I buy, as I tend to only buy figures I will like - though occasionally I do end up with a dud. This is the most perfect version of G1 Soundwave we are ever likely to get - which is the point of Masterpiece. There is an incredible dedication to show accuracy, with extremely high levels of quality and articulation. ![]() Masterpiece Soundwave is the perfect example of what the Masterpiece line is now all about. It is kind of hard to go into great detail on the alt mode (that has not stopped me trying), as it is mostly just a box. That is until you add the cassettes to it obviously. Whilst this is great as a collectors piece, it does not make for the most exciting toy in the world, so there's not much play value. The alt mode is fairly great, as it nails exactly what it is supposed to, which is Soundwaves original mode. You can add the sensorehere, but it being silver makes it really stand out. Particularly when you consider that in Tape Player mode you can even store Rumble and Frenzys weapons in Soundwaves feet! When you think of all the effort they have gone to, to include some of the most obscure features he demonstrated in the cartoon - it seems odd that this was left as it is. It doesn't really diminish the figure in any way, its just a little disappointing. However, on the Masterpiece figure, they are just clearly visible. On the original, the gun and shoulder cannon, slotted in behind the belt clip as batteries. The back of the alt mode is probably the most disappointing aspect of this figure. But enough about the box - we want to talk about it's contents. The box feels expensive, which is crucial really with such an expensive set. Which is kinda fitting, as Soundwave was always one of the creepiest Transformers. They have even started renumbering the Masterpieces, as Soundwave is "MP-02", though in reality (and Japanese numbering) he is actually MP-13. ![]() The Decepticon logo and Soundwaves name are embossed on there, and the cover slips off. Gone is the clear plastic craziness, and in its place is a sleek, classy box. The box itself is the first of a new style of packaging for the Masterpiece line in the west. We speak English, in fact its our language, so we don't need French, German, Spanish, Italian and whatever other languages you can squeeze in there. Well done Hasbro UK, please keep it up, pleeaaaaaaaase. ![]() Which means that we, the originators of the English language - actually get full English text on the box and in the instructions. What makes it even sweeter, is that in the UK the box is the same as the American version. When you consider that the Takara Soundwave cost £150 or so at most online retailers - it becomes clear just how much of a bargain it is. Incidentally, the Energon cube was an Amazon exclusive in Japan. You get Soundwave, all 5 cassette-bots, tape cases for all of them, Rumble and Frenzy's pile drivers, a sensor device, an alternate chest piece that can be used to display readouts, a gun mode Megatron and an Energon cube that can be attached to his chest. Hasbro have really outdone themselves with this set. That was my first expression on getting this figure - woah. ![]()
