I'll add a new complaint and say I wish he was a little smaller because that's a size I don't even want him at, but he still looks good and fairly complex and he looks infinitely better than the other oversized figures we've been getting.
Yeah he doesn't really go with anything, but is a muchly fun chunky Bumblebee toy all by himself to entertain the kids (and some adults) particularly at christmas when the film is out.
I want him specifically because he will go PERFECTLY with my golden Battle Ops Bee and my Prime "stealth" talking Weaponizer Bee.

Ok well yes then he goes fine with other ridiculously gigantic Bumblebee toys.

This is one of two Target exclusive sets (which will also be appearing at Argos in the UK), the other being a set of cassettes featuring the toy everyone asked for, Titans Return Frenzy (aka the blue one).
If you find Soundwave, let the community know in the sightings section and sightings forum.

Disagree
Also, holy shit, I never made a top 5 Soundwave toys list. Might wait to see what we get in WFC

That would be a list to see. Still, I'm pretty sure the G1 original is at least in the top five.

Prime has storage and 'ejectability' for his one non cassette cassette bot, tho he would beat the animated version in a fight).
There's a lot more Soundwaves. Enough that I just can't display them all together and I even sold the INFERIOR ones.

But I'm a sucker for any soundwave figure for the most part (excluding satellite and FOC, the Titans return figure was almost a pass with it being leader class sized).
It works super well with the other leader seekers and megatron. And he sure looks the part,plus he interacts with the new casettes.

The vanallia Prime Soundwave is chilling with the other Prime figures. Kinda kills me to not have them all together. The Cassettebots have their own shelf space now.

Anyways, the ones I would be considering would be Prime, RID, MP, Animated, G1, HA/MTB and TR battling it out with FOC and Cybertron being tossed the wayside. But then again, I might wait to see if we finally get a good voyager soundwave from this new Generations line.

I LOVE voyager FOC Soundwave. But it's true that unfortunately the cassette ejecting gimmink just don't work.

I'd expect a new Soundwave for New WFC, to at least have a Lamppost mode in some way.
Oher Soundwaves to toss by the wayside, Titanium, and Machine Wars. The former because he's objectively the worst Soundwave, and the latter because he's really not really Soundwave in my eyes.

Oh if there is one thing for certain, its that Machine War Soundwave would NEVER be near thst list
Titanium soundwave too of course

Also, time to go Bee movie hunting! I passed on Soundwave in TR and I'm super stoked to hunt him down now

I don't think there's anything wrong with the toy in and of itself. But a Soundwave it is not. Had they called him Shockwave, and given him a suitable head I would not have had an issue.
But I just don't see how Soundwave is a grey and maroon missile tank. It would be like making Prowl a pink and black Jet, or making Starscream a purple and yellow car (Alternity notwithstanding).
The universe repaint evokes Shockwave more than it does Soundwave.

The video, shared with us by fellow Seibertronian PrimeVsPrime, shows the Energon Igniter gimmick / power up mode, the vehicle mode, the robot mode and the very quick transformation between the two, as well as a quick comparison with Bumblebee himself. Check it out, and let us know what you think!

He hasn't been offered in Japan yet (neither has Ironhide, what the heck?), but when he is he should be less after the typical Japanese discounts, though shipping may hurt depending on how fast you want it.

In Canada, the same week, yours truly found an Exclusive Bumblebee costume for the Bumblebee movie. This is different than the previously reported costume since this one has a hard plastic cover for the chest section rather than being all fabric. It retails for $34.98 CAD.

The big one to note here is this one featuring Transformers Bumblebee movie actor Jorge Lenderborg Jr playing around with a DJ Bumblebee toy showing off its features.
We also have several videos featuring the Nitro subline, though these have been posted up by Hasbro Brazil
Individual toy videos:
Finally, we have a new video for Power Charge Bumblebee.
Have you had any luck in getting these? Let us know in the comments and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews.

Fellow Seibertronian and (CW) Optimus Prime voice actor JON3.0 found some exclusive Opimus Prime gloves at Walmart in the US for $4.97 USD. These are not Optimus themes gloves but rather blue gloves to emulate Optimus' hand colour in the G1 cartoon.

I wonder if an adult sized version would be ridiculously priced like the last one I saw.

Edited: He does come with his shoulder cannon and rifle, both in a plastic bag in the right side of the package. They are both the same molds as the Titans return version, with the rifle painted silver and the shoulder cannon painted with new red paint details on the missile tips.
We also see how different the deco is with the Bumblebee movie release having darker paint apps. The biggest difference is in the alt mode, of coure, where we see retooled speakers. There is also a lot fo added deco for details like the channel tuning. The Titan Master component also has deco differences.
Which do you preffer? Let us know!

Yes, it is 50$ USD. I dont udnerstand it either since I thought it was all part of the same master mold (on the same sprues). I dont get the reason for this omission.
