Lego is rumoured to continue their yearly Transformers releases in 2025 with Soundwave. The information was found in a Lego Leaks subreddit (link below). Of course, these are still just rumours. Let us know if this is one you’d get.

Can't wait for this!

My first post in years!

This I could see being pretty good. He can have a simple transformation if they choose which should lend itself well to both his signature look and transformation.

I still need to build my Bee, but this is exciting to finally get a con in the line.

He is a lego brick. Obvious choice.

Enjoyed Prime. Not interested in Bumblebee. Soundwave has my attention though!

I can get behind a Lego Soundwave. Especially because the base design is so blocky. If he come with a Lego Lazerbeak/Buzzsaw and Ravage, it may be the first TF Lego set I'd buy.

Assuming this ends up looking decent, I'm in... Even if the price is $180+.
And I won't be disappointed if there are cassettes involved that don't transform.

We finally have images for Lego's next Transformers project, Soundwave. We can see both the robot mode and alt mode, which he transforms into, along with Laserbeak and Ravage who also transform. He even comes with a mini version of his alt mode self for display purposes. The set comes out August 1st and will retail for 179.99 USD. With a piece count of 1502, this makes him quite expensive.

Check out the images below and let us know what you think!

Soundwave make the more sense as a Lego set. His base form is a rectangle, the bot mode is made out of rectangles, and his transformation is simple. So, everything looks great.
There's high chances I'll be getting it.

I'm going to assume this will be like the other two sets, and go on sale multiple times. I might regret it but I'll wait for the price to come down.

I dont remember Optimus or bee being this much. And both were shelf warmers. Even after being clearanced. Im not holding out hope for Soundwave.

"Soundwave superior. Optimus Prime & Bumblebee inferior."

Yeah, price is pretty steep.

That price matches up with the Optimus Prime price, it was what i expected.

I'll also wait to see if this one goes on sale.

Ditto.

All TF Lego sets are still available long after they came out and they went on sale often. At that price and this availability, I'll not be FOMOing.

Yup, it does match OP's price, which I too found very steep. Oddly enough, I ended up getting OP for a great price in a Lego store in Bologna.

Even though I haven’t had Lego since I was a kid, this is, surprisingly, tempting me quite a lot. Soundwave looks awesome!

But to grumble: I wish all the Cassetticons came with him. I didn’t think they would, but that would’ve been great.

Just noticed the box says batteries are included. So maybe he will have some voice lines, like the advert.

At least by having Laserbeak, if he doesn't use any new/special parts, it may be possible to just order the specific bricks needed in Buzzsaw colors. I will probably do this once I have him.

Good eyes, the lower right corner of the front also says Sound Brick, so I definitely think he has either some voice clips and/or maybe the transformation sound.

Lego Soundwave is upon us. The page on the Lego site is live, offering lots of images and even videos where we can listen to the sounds it makes, thanks to a Soundwave coloured sound brick. The sounds including him saying "Soundwave" in that distinct robotic voice as well as the theme music to Transformers.
You can see those quick videos at the link below:

A sponsored review is already out as well and you can view it below.

Looks pretty damn awesome. IMO the best TF Lego set so far.

At the Canadian Lego Shop, it will be CAN230$, 10$ cheaper than Optimus.

https://www.lego.com/en-ca/product/tran ... wave-10358

I'll definitely wait for a sale.

A rather excellent review of Lego Soundwave. Provides a lot of info and shows off some excellent extras and options.

Had you not pointed out the electronic voice said "Soundwave", I thought I heard "sandwich".
