He stands 11 inches tall. In the real world he would be about 23 feet tall.

Little confused here... 11 inches? That's about 20 centimeters, meaning that it's around a Leader Class :D 23 feet? That's as big as... Umm... Is it from my calculator, or is Soundwave about 7 meters? That isn't as big as Megatron, but at least he is bigger than Jazz :grin:

He's looking really great! I can't wait to see the head. I know that it's going to tie it all together.
One minor point: I do think that the paint job could use a bit more contrast. I think that a touch more silver and red would really make the design pop.

Thanks, TS.

The head may have the added color you'd like to see, but I'll try to put a little more on the body where applicable.

Tim, have Bob Orci and Alex Kurtzman seen your design here? Once this whole "strike" business is over you better send it to them, because I sure as hell will. This design is amazing.

Just mention that most of the site will support them and start a simple petition thread in Movie Discussion. (Can we poll anymore?)

No. The hands are from a Marvel Megamorph Wolverine figure.

Mr Orci has seen quite a few of my designs and has always been complementary. Nice guy.

I have posted my work on several TF sites. I have not sent my work to anyone in the film team officially.

Pieces from a Megamorph Venom were also used for the "big toes" on the front of Soundwave's feet.

It means they're great, and I can't see how anyone wouldn't be complimentary, I'm sure even purists like it.

Did you search for and bought all these figures just for Soundwave?

No. I found a lot of the Megamorphs on clearance at TRU and stocked up for future projects. I usually get the Lego sets on clearance too.

I have a few boxes filled with these "spare parts". Also known as a bits box. Pretty standard customizing procedure.
