Golden Lagoon Soundwave at Wonder Festival 2019 Winter

Posted by notsoalex Feb 9, 2019 at 8:17pm CST 17,544 views
Thanks to @TF_pr on Twitter, we a have a picture of Golden Lagoon Soundwave at Wonderfest 2019! This is one of our first pictures of this shiny fellow, who we usually saw in stock photos. The figure is a redeco of Titans Return Leader Class Soundwave, cast in gold colored plastic, with painted gold chrome over it. This refers to the Transformers Generation 1 episode "The Golden Lagoon," which starred, the Golden Lagoon, in which everyone was dipped in gold. The figure utilizes the original Soundwave sculpt, instead of the Bumblebee retooling.

So, thoughts of this now that we see a good picture of this lad? Tell us your thoughts in the Pub forums below!

Resurrecting This Thread, as these just popped up on Hasbro Pulse for pre-order. If you missed them before here is your Chance :)

The only one I wanted was Starscream, which I got previously from BBTS, and at the same price it is on PULSE, so I'm not upset. Still nice for any who want them, here is a second chance.

As someone who just sold off my GL Starscream last week, all I can say is "whew".

I would never sell mine since he (as Sunstorm) is an integral part of one of my Combiners... but I never looked at after market prices once I got him initially. Would you care to give a rough idea of what he sold for? ;) .

He went for $50, not a huge increase over his original but some financial issues came up that lead to me having to sell off some parts of the collection that I didn't really need. If I would have waited a week longer, it would have been pointless.

Makes Sense. Thanks for Sharing. I've been in that position before. I've really curbed my collecting to just what I absolutely want, which has served me well. Only 4 definites so far for Kingdom

The Perceptor, Seaspray, and Beachcomber Golden Lagoon figures are still okay, since these are the latest molds of these characters AND pretty good ones at that. The rest are too little too late for me. Soundwave and Optimus Prime are way too big now for the new War for Cybertron Trilogy scale, and that Starscream is way too small and off model as compared to the fantastic Earthrise Starscream. These were an easy pass before, and they remain so now.

Yeah, I'm still not into these. Maybe if they were the new molds, I'd consider it, but these aren't even close to fitting in anymore.

Plus, there's just a glut of exclusives I want more.

I wonder if these were just sitting around TT warehouse, and they decided to give them to Pulse to see if they could "offload" them. I don't think they are newly produced. Still their appearance in the latest Selects Manga probably was a hope to get rid of the last of theser, which seems to have worked, except for MP-Prime.

I had no idea that today was the 35th anniversary of the airing of the Episode "The Golden Lagoon"... , nice way to synergize Pulse ;) .

The 35th anniversary of my favorite episode of all time is in 2 days...I wonder if they will do anything for that ;) .

Greetings Seibertronians! Thanks to fellow Seibertron users, TF-fan Kev777 and Kaynowa, we've learned that Takara's Exclusive Golden Lagoon figures (sold in three sets) have been listed on Hasbro Pulse! These were formerly only available via Takara (and any site that imported them). Now though Hasbro are making them available to US fans. Though at time of this article going live, only the redeco of Transformers Masterpiece MP-10 Optimus Prime is in stock. It is unknown at this juncture if any more preorders will become available or if it was first come, first served.

The three sets are:

Takara Tomy Golden Lagoon GL- 01 Convoy (Optimus Prime).

A redeco of Transformers Masterpiece MP-10 Optimus Prime.

A redeco of Transformers Unite Warriors Ghost Starscream (who himself was Transformers Combiner Wars Skydive with a new head and cast in translucent plastics).

Takara Tomy Golden Lagoon GL- 03 Beachcomber, Perceptor and Seaspray.

Redecos of Power of the Primes Legends Beachcomber, Titans Returns Deluxe Class Perceptor (and Titan Master Convex) and Titans Returns Legends Class Seaspray.

What do you think of these? Did you manage to get a preorder on them? Have you got them from their previous release? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

GL-04 Soundwave cries in a corner for being left out, :-( even though he's sold out like most of the others ;) .

Also just curious, what's the policy on news around here? I'm not upset at all, just confused as many stories I've brought up get passed over. If I submit via the actual news submission form, someone looks in the forums. If I do it first in the forums, someone else submits it via the form... :-?

I think in this case I submitted and mentioned it in another forum likely minutes before you mentioned it in the GL forum. (I'd forgotten there even was one.)
