Transformers DOTM Deluxe Soundwave may not be scheduled to release domestically, but he managed to find his way to retail in several parts of Asia, and like many figures before him his instruction sheet reveals a possible future head sculpt. With the future of the DOTM figures in question will this figure ever see the light of day, and who could he be? The original poster on twitter, @Blonde_Badass, speculates movie universe Blaster.

Okay, so it's another figure that's never going to happen (unless the next movie keeps the style going)

I thought they were gonna retool him a Soundblster.

I did want Leadfoot, but it's better for everyone to finally let movie-verse rest in peace.

Maybe they will remold he head, after all, most of the images recieved have been either blurry or small

Actually, i think it's the black soundwave in the trilogy line...

The canceled Movie Trilogy Black Soudwave didn't feature a new head sculpt:

That new head reminds me a lot of blaster with those ears and the visor.. well a movie version.

Like it matters anymore. They cancelled the figure.

Well, as long as we got every possible repaint of Bumblebee, that's all that matters.

On to Transformers: Prime and a hundred repaints of...Bumblebee

That's not exactly accurate. DOTM Soundwave was not cancelled; it's just not being released in the Western markets. And Hasbro HAS said that they would try to get these figures released in some way. (They put money into making the mold, so they probably want to get some value from it.) Maybe a Soundblaster repaint could be released as part of the Generations line.

It looks like... Movie Jazz?

I know he's dead but... it does look like him.

Ho dudes it´s Blaster! I don´t like this toy, but if the colors and the head sculpt are nice, I will get.

He died in the first movie and they still released a bunch of Jazz toys after that. That would hardly stop them from making one more, I know you know this!

its batman

Couple of people popepped into my head when saw this head.

I hope you're right. I want my Wheeljack, Soundwave and above all, Deluxe Leadfoot!

And Soundwave does not a Blaster make.

release him in the US then we will talk.

Blond_Badass is my twin brother, lol.

I thought I remembered reading somewhere that they weren't gonna be able to reuse the movie line toys because the vehicle modes are licensed? Or am I just crazy?

GOOD LUCK, because the ONLY way to get them, and thats if they are available much longer is on Ebay, through Foreign sellers. I had to shell out $34 for Soundwave shipped, $60 for Leadfoot, and a ridiculous $80 for Que shipped!!! But its a chance I am telling you. Hasbro may screw us and release them somewhere state side like RTS Windcharger AFTER a lot of people speculate and then take a chance and buy them at a high price. But I already look at it from the OTHER side, that these are just going to go UP in price. Hell the Que has already in 4 weeks went from $45 on Ebay to as high as $125!!!!

Just FYI,lol

Blaster then? But that would leave the car either red or yellow...

I am lucky to have received the figure in the mail from Hasbro Australia.
