Soundblaster or Black Soundwave?

I have to say I am really really happy that I own a MIB nearly unused Soundblaster already because what I heard about the reissue isn't that great. It appears that Takara removed the coolest feature that the original toy had in the good old days. The original Soundblaster had an incorporated Tech Spec decoder wherein one could place the special Buzzsaw to reveal the characteristics of Fortress Maximus. It appears that the reissue will not have the decoder. Instead the chest compartment will be dark blue (making it useless to decode the sticker even if one were to be applied to Buzzsaw). That's not cool!

I was under the impression that the gimmick would remain, and that the shot of the blue door on the promo shots was not the look of the final product.
