The fire look is in. Dengeki Hobby September issue gives us a wonderful look at a brand new repaint of Revenge of the Fallen Deluxe Soundwave, that has a color scheme that is very similar to The Fallen.

As this is the first time we've seen the figure, it will most likely show up during or after Christmas time!

Unfortunately, Real Devastator claims that this Soundwave repaint is a 'Kiara Hobby Japan Exclusive', thus it is unclear whether or not it will be released in North America. Stay tuned to Seibertron.com, and we'll keep you updated!

That is the first time that ROTF Soundwave looks good.

Soundblaster is that you?
Thought he could also be Lazerbeak.

Clear things up a bit, this fella is Soundwave, it is NOT Soundbalster.
The japanese title said this is "ROTF Soundwave Black Version".
This toy will be on sale at Kiara Hobby 2009, to be held on 29 & 30 August 2009.
After the event, some remaining figures will be sold through Toy Hobby Market www.toyhobby.jp

If they can make it a Soundwave, they can make it a Soundblaster!

My friend helped me to custom repaint ROTF Soundwave. So this is ROTF Real Devastator Exclusive Soundwave.
:grin:

Awesome, simply Brilliant!! :APPLAUSE:

I think that Hasbro should do a Black and Silver Repaint similar to this Kiara Hobby Exclusive, and release it here as a premium version calling it Soundblaster.. they could get a lot more mileage out of the mold if they do it that way..

Do you hear that HASBRO!! Redeco this figure, with Black and Silver, and a few yellow highlights in key areas, and call it Soundblaster..this thread is your consumer test report

the Red and Black look on this exclusive looks okay, but I am not a fan of the red.. it makes the figure look junky, like he's part plastic (black) and part candle wax (red)

Nice ! Finally a repaint of Soundwave toy.

Here is my version to share, painted it long before the movie, so its more like a self imagined concept for colors.

Soundblaster repaint! I didn't see that coming.

I did, and didn't even need a telescope

And as I look at the Mini-Cons, they're not Micron Boosters. Rather, they're give-away Mini-Cons, tho I can't exactly tell where, only that it involves a 2,000 Yen purchase. Let me try and translate the names:

Dump Truck: Maitei Dozer
Backhoe: Maitei Bull
Police Car: Maitei Sutora (Sutra?)

Can anyone shed light on this?

Well, I'll admit I was too busy looking for new toy molds rather than think of potential repaints, since I'm not much of a repaint-chaser. Soundblaster here looks cool but I'm happy with my preview version Soundwave.
