    I love the idea of guitars for Animated Soundwave's minions. But I am now a little hopeful that since Japan is getting animated, that they (we) might get some kind of exclusive Ravage or Rumble Guitar or Instrument such as drums, or piano. Thoughts? Ideas?

    I wouldn't mind having a group of instruments for Animated Soundwave, but I hope they're of better quality than Ratbat. He looks ok, but feels so cheap...

    A Buzzsaw guitar would be interesting...
    I like the idea of a piano, although I'm not too sure how a drum set would work without major parts-forming.

    That'd be cool. I like that Buzzsaw idea. Simple repaint right there. I wouldn't mind an Animated Ravage at all :)

    I'm thinking: Rumble & Frenzy as speakers, and Ravage some turntables. Soundwave's hands and forearms look like they're made for scratching records. This was actually my first (failed) attempt at customizing. I may eventually go back and try it again once my scratch-building skills get better.

    Rumble would be good if his bashing hands were drums or round speakers. I'm saying a drum set would be damn cool for him. Somehow hide his head in a seat. Base drum could be his torso. The rest of the drums and cymbals make ups his arms and legs.

    Not going to happen. If it's not in the show, Japan doesn't like to get a toy of it. Furthermore as it's looking right now, they may not even carry the full Animated line, let alone go into new toy territory.

    As far as exclusives go, the best bet is for recolored Seeker(s).

    This would be one Animated release I'd be really excited for. Naturally Buzzsaw could just be a Laserbeak repaint, but I'd love for Ravage to be a bass guitar. Then what I think would be AESOME would be the rest to form a huge double bass drumset. :D 

    Rumble and Frenzy could be the bass drums (still allowing the to be repaints), and Overkill, Slugfest, Squaktalk and Beastbox could be snare drum, toms and cymbals. Probably an engineerin impossibility but that's what I'd love to see!

    This message is full of FAIL...they are not going to make multiple versions of soundwave just to introduce different minions of soundwave on the market...and since transformers do not have accessory packs made for them in the form of weapons and sold...forget that option too....

    I was thinking Beastbox could be a drum kit. I actualy drew out plans to kitbash one.

    I'd love to see a rumble and frenzy as dual turntables

    easy repaint of laserbeak as buzzsaw

    squalktalk could be a bass guitar

    ravage as a keyboard

    overkill as a speaker

    slugfest as an amp

    my apologies if any of these have been suggested already, I didnt read the whole thread yet.
