Following the tease earlier today, we have new images of the upcoming Toys alliance Mega Action Series 03 Soundwave, via the Hobbymizer Hong Kong Facebook page. The new giant statue of Soundwave is a new slightly stylized take on his G1 self, complete with tape deck, shoulder cannon (stored behind his back in these shots) and hand gun. He also comes with Laserbeak perching on his shoulder in the pictures shown, and another Laserbeak is seen in tape mode, with some panel lines suggesting it either does something, or the panel lines are an homage to the original tape form.

Also cool to see is that Soundwave appears to be able to carry fully sized cassette tapes, as a copy of Awesome Mix Volume 2 (nice Guardians of the Galaxy reference!) can be seen actually sitting in his chest.

Check out some of the images below, and you can go to the Facebook page to see all the shots of the MAS crew!

Do you suppose laserbeak transforms?

Doubt it, as these are just statues and not meant to Transform.

So one of laserbeaks back finds is molded crooked and the hinges are for show

Correction: Mega Action series are fully articulated giant action figures, but not transformable (Hasbro doesn't allow it on licensed figures). So Laserbeak has working articulation, but doesn't turn into a tape. He does appear to have the same type of chest door mechanism that opens by pushing the button on top.
