New Images of Studio Series Bumblebee Movie Soundwave

Posted by william-james88 Nov 23, 2021 at 11:19am CST 33,829 views
We have several images of the new Studio Series Bumblebee Movie Soundwave. The photos come from various places including Optimusprimeprodctions on Instagram. We see the box which indicates that this figure is past the production stage and in the hand of distributors already (or at least ready for distribution). The box also has a double backdrop, it seems since we have a backdrop soundwave is attached to (but cannot stand on) along with an additional backdrop in the box.

We get to see that both chest panels (for robot mode and alt mode) line up at either side of his chest, with the alt mode panel flipped to hide the fake details in robot mode. We also get a good look at his chest cavity. We thank everyone who sent us a message regarding these new images.

So that means deluxe wave 15 (which includes SS86-11 Perceptor) But also has SS BB Ratchet, BB Brawn, and BB Wheeljack will likely be 80-82, we just don't know exactly in which order yet.

Which is interesting because it means that they are not numbering the core class, or they are numbering them out of order.

Based on the pictures we have of the boxes, core class is not numbered.

Just to keep myself in check:

#70 B-127
#71 Autobot Dino

#72 Starscream

#73 Grindor # Ravage

#74 Bumblebee (RotF)
#75 Jolt

#76 Thrust

#77 N.E.S.T. Bumblebee

#78 Sideswipe (RotF)

#79BB High Octane Bumblebee

#80-#82 ???

#83 Soundwave

It's a bit hasty to think Soundwave will be listed at the end of his group, for all we know he's at the beginning with the Core Class in front of him.

Yeah the core class packaging have no numbers which I find very odd.

Not in the front, but what about the side and back?

Every other SS has had the number prominently featured on the front. While WFC #s are kind of an afterthought. I always viewed SS kind of like Alternators, where the number is part of the fun/ sickness we collectors have in wanting to have them all ;) .

True Legends/ Core Class is new to SS, but I'm sure the developers know the significance of the numbering system. Alternatively perhaps the packaging we are seeing isn't final?

Did anybody else notice that Soundwave still had the clear bands on in robot mode? Usually, those are used to secure the figure to the box or for holding a protective plastic covering over certain parts. Rarely, they're used to hold parts together, interesting.

Soundwave is looking good!

Soundwave's robot mode is pretty decent, that alt though, I think mine will transform once and then never again.

That really is what WFC Siege Soundwave should have been right there

Thanks to posts on Instagram and the Cybertron 21 Facebook page, we have in hand images of 3 upcoming Studio Series figures. These are core class Shockwave and Ravage along with voyager Soundwave. We get a good idea of Soundave's size as well as how his alt mode looks like. We see that Hasbro has been very coy with those alt mode images, diligently hiding the fact that Soundwave's head just stays there in the back. Same with Shockwave who also has visible head syndrome. We do see the accessory that comes with Ravage to give Soundwave a more G1 styled gun tip. And sure, Ravage's alt mode is even more of a nothing burger than Soundave's but we see that it's just a way to fold him into the chest cavity.

Wow, I knew Ravage was smaller than most Cores when shown in package next to Shockwave, but he's even smaller than I thought he'd be.

And yet that's still not the smallest Ravage we've ever gotten!

The more I look at the Core class Shockwave, the more I like it, however I will be skipping it as it looks like it is a downscaling of a figure I already have. Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Voyager class Shockwave!

Why skip it? It's made to be used with larger figures like titans and such. Your BH Shockwave could also have a son!

Main reason is that I'm at a point I need to be very selective what I buy for my collection! Right now my wish list for figures is the Studio Series Bumblebee Ratchet, Legacy Skids, and my current ultimate grail, Titans Return Misfire!

Is that the throne / command chair from the SS-86 Starscream?

Hopefully you get him soon, it's honestly a nice figure. I have mine displayed amongst his other Targetmaster brethren! (Still waiting for a new Needlenose toy...at least the subscription service figure can suffice in the meantime...)
