I think the new soundwave sucks! Whats wrong with the original? He was a big ghetto blaster and had a cool voice and he was a badass. I dont ever remember him as an aircraft. f u michael bay you suck just like the song says in Team America!

I can understand Soundwave (or Blaster for that matter) not looking like Boom Boxes. The movie version doesn’t seem to possess the ability to re-size to ridiculous proportions, because it made even less sense than intelligent talking rogots. So even a modern CD Player wouldn’t work in the new system. Megatron no longer transforms into a handgun small enough for a human to carry, and Perceptor wouldn’t work because of this, either.

A satellite would be a cool, modern mode to fit with his theme. Frankly, he could transform into a Wiggermobile with a rattling sound system, and he’d still pass judgment- as long as he has the voice. Damnit, he has to have the voice. Otherwise it isn’t Soundwave.

The satelite Idea works and i supose if he is gonna enter earths atmossphere he needs to be airborn. But the thing that defines Soundwave is his ability to track and pick up any type of singnal. he is the spy of the decepticons and he uses his mini robots as agents. I really hope the use the orginal voice for him just like they did with optimus. Or least tries to tweak whoever is doing the voice so that it sounds like him.if they can pull that off and show his realition to ravager and hopefully frenzy. Maybe i can buy it. i dont like the look of the robot though they should have kepts his orginal “Face shield” and the blue collour

I really like the simple version of Soundwave. As a child I was able to transform him easily. Why are they making the Transformers so complicated these days? I have to say that Soundwave looks awesome.

Umm Soundwave is not a boombox…its Frenzy.
Soundwave is a satellite hence the name Soundwave.

it would look retarded to have the same design as 1984. you gotta have the same voice or at least a new version very similar. the biggest disappointment is starscream i think. its a really annoying look. cant wait to see how bad they butcher cobra commander. chris latta’s a rollin around down there.

The toy is allready out for soundwave, seen it on youtube, and it looks just like the picture does, but there is no nostalgia feeling here for me! Michael Bay is the American version of UWE BOLL…. His way or nothing, and the fans will pay….. C’mon by changing the toys, they will make more money from the fans, no matter how much they rip off the bionicle molds………. And yes I will be there on opening day!~ even if it’s just for Megan Fox!!!!

Joshua, I would agree with you if Bay didn’t direct the actors. When it comes to action and effects, Bay is the man but when it comes to directing actors, he must belong to the same club as George Lucas and William Shatner.

These made me think of Japanese design, which I hate extremely.

I don’t like his look. I thought the helicopter from the first movie looked more like soundwave. Hopefully this isn’t the final version. It looks way too busy. Ravage looks ok.

Well you can’t have Soundawave to be a boombox and he is a communications expert.

So the satellite mode fits him fine.

Do note that its his cybertronian mode and his earth mode is not known. In G1 each ones cybertronian mode was diff from earth mode.

Ravage looks menacing

At the side of him is the tank mode of MEGATRON

Ok so now Soundwave will transform into a jetlike form, sort of like Megatron in the first movie. To bad they couldn’t make Soundwave Transform into multiple forms, oh well. I wish Frenzy was in the Transformers 2,but I guess we cant have both Ravage and Frenzy. to bad. Frenzy was cool. I think the new look of Soundwave will be ok. The movie will be a action-packed popcorn blast, just what we all want and need for the summer time. June 26th, 2009

@ Kahless

Ravage looks pretty dope… Soundwave… I don’t like all these wing-like appendages they’re putting on the robots. I like the more humanesque bodies of the cartoon versions. C’est la vie…
