Looks better in package, hopefully Hasbro won't forget to upscale FOC Optimus and make a voyager Megatron.

If I buy it it'll be strictly for Soundwave not those crappy disc.


They look fine to me. The only thing that bugs me a little is they sacrificed the weapon storage for the gimmick.

Music Label. He's' a working MP3 player, only about 2 gig of storage though, if I recall correctly.


Actually it's just 1 GB, but there are ways you can extend it to 2 GB. :)



1 GB [i]compatible[i]. The figure didn't actually come with any storage, you had to provide your own SD card.

When one of the users said "You can never have too many Soundwaves", this reminds me of his original toy:

G1 1984 release;
Image

1985 Grimlock vs. Soundwave;
Image

Headmasters Soundblaster (with a retooled door in order to hold two cassettes at once);
Image

Takara Collection Soundwave and Soundblaster (both have the retooled tape door);
Image

Classics Toys"R"Us exclusive Commemorative Edition Soundwave(still with retooled door, but with neutered weapons);
Image

Encore Soundwave and Soundblaster;
Image

Image

Universe Hasbro Toy Shop Exclusive Soundwave (now with the original tape door);
Image

He must have 9 reissues in total! 10 for the upcoming one.

But judging strictly from the games alone, voyager FOC Soundwave would be out of scale with WFC Megs and WFC/FOC OP.

Personally, I base the scale of my collection on that of their respective shows/games/continuity, not the G1 toys.

Would have rather seen a Shockwave upscale in all honesty, does anyone konw if this is on the cards, or is that just too much to ask for?

No word on that. Heck, there hasn't been any word on a voyager FOC Optimus, or even a deluxe FOC Megatron.

He actually looks pretty good sat there in his box. I'm still not too thrilled about how they've handled Laserbeak and the others.

It'll be interesting to see how, with the reduced size of Transformers, this voyager Soundwave compares to the WFC deluxe.

I love the way this toy looks and if the MP Soundwave wasn't staring us in the face I would be all over him, but I am going to get the MP model and never need to buy another Soundwave...ever! I will get the Blaster retool of this guy though if the toy is cool.

Anyone have any info on how tall FOC Voyagers will be?

Maybe some of you guys have seen him in person on display, how would he stack up against a Classics Prime?

Given how Classics Prime's already small for a Voyager at the time, I'd say Soundwave will be slightly smaller.

Which is why I'm using the Prime Soundwave (works with United R&F, the upcoming Laserbeak, and GF Soundblaster as well in terms of alts) and waiting impatiently for the Blaster retool/paint, who's in scale with SW somewhat as the larger figure, and grounded like most Autobots. :grin:
