IDW Shaterred Glass II Covers Show Shattered Glass Soundwave Using the Netflix Mold

Posted by william-james88 Aug 21, 2022 at 9:25pm CDT 28,694 views
We already know a Shaterred Glass Soundwave toy is coming but it was unknown which mold would be used. Comic covers are giving us a pretty big clue though with the latest cover making it obvious that he has the body used for the Walmart exclusive Netflix line. As we saw with Goldbug, while an outright rerelease of an exclusive may not be possible immediately, Hasbro seems to be able to still use the molds in different decos (this is just an observation, not a verified fact). So Soundwave could be using the Netflix mold just as Goldbug used the exclusive Volkswagen mold, meaning that these covers could be the first look at Shattered Glass Soundwave, and possibly his cassettes.

That artwork looks like it was done by your college buddy’s weed dealer.

Still looks better than most of recent IDW.

Who said it wasn't, I don't know what these people did in college. :-?

If they really do use the Netflix model then I have to ask, would it have really killed them to wait just a little longer for the exclusivity to run out for the Legacy release? I don't know why they were so desperate to get Siege Soundwave back out there with how often it was being bashed the first time around.

As we are hypothesizing with Goldbug, it could be that the exclusivity is not the mold itself but the mold/deco combo, so the actual release which is exclusive. So while they can't reissue the Netflix Soundwave toy themselves, they could release the mold in SG colours.

That's got to be it. Legacy Soundwave using the Netflix mold would have just been a straight reissue. But a completely different deco with a completely different color scheme is apparently allowed, as evidenced by Goldbug using the Netflix mold.

And a different head as well. Not sure if it's a must but that's another difference between Netix Bee and goldbug. It was also the only toy in that pack not to come with the other head.

Some were hoping Goldbug would have an extra head, but that it would be the same head in gold to make it Marvel Goldbug.

I don't see the legacy landing gear on Soundwaves arms. I really hope we get a head with a fabric headband.

That might explain Bugbite as well. I really hope they come up with some alternate versions of exclusive heads so we can avoid this in the future.

I was prepared for Magnus, but Retrax and Blaster coming early is a thorn in the side right now

I was not prepared for my two SG Ultra Magnus toys because I'm currently at BotCon and have already spent a fortune in the dealer room. :-(
