When i saw Titanium Soundwave, I didn't even have to think. It's a no-brainer. Leave him.


I guess the Soundwave you should be looking for is MP3 Soundwave Auto Bot


Yeah. I saw MP3 Soundwave. The best Soundwave i've ever seen! Unfortunately, my wallet don't agree with me.

It's a plunder case.

I returned that turd the day after I bought him. Shoot, GI Joe Megatron Titanium is better than Ti SW. At least GI Joe Megs can stand up on his own.

You have to wonder at the thought process behind some titaniums. Thundercracker has a huge hole in the back of his vehicle mode where you can easily see his head. Rodimus is really nice, but has one huge hole is his mid section in bot mode. The Arcee prototype has these huge hips that look totally out of place. And Soundwave pooped his pants. I don't understand ... even if they never knew who soundwave was before this project, didn't someone stand back and realise that the huge abdomen was too much, even for the fast-and-loose proportions found in the TF universe?

And then you have some real gems. Rodimus, despite the hole problem, looks great. Fallen, despite not being correct, is great (I tend to think they were looking at the actual comic and NOT any sketches that were provided ... explains his innacurate mold (they couldn't see it) and innacurate colors (they don't pop up until the last issue or so)). Scourge looks awsome and hopefully I'll find him. Cheetor too. Unproduced Cosmos and Shockwave look wonderful. So what gives?

"Soundwave pooped his pants."

Perfect description. An Emmy Award winner.

The cheapest i know of is $100. But that was long ago. Some say it went up to $220. I haven't really check it yet.

I was able to get mine to stand pretty well (and even hold some poses!) by giving his legs a healthy coat (or seven) of clear nail polish. You can see some old photos of the results here:

Doesn't fix the diaper, but it works for me. 8)

The top pic has a very nice pose. You only forgot to provide a scaled toilet replica to go with it.
