    I'll pass on this. I'm sure it wont be much bigger than WFC Soundwave. They should release Optimus as a voyager.

    Uh, from what I remember seeing at Botcon(him in person) he is a great deal bigger than the deluxe one to use the chest gimmick.

    You are aware that WFC Soundwave was a deluxe, and that FOC Soundwave is a Voyager that can store the equivalent of three Laserbeaks in his chest...right? Just one Laserbeak is larger than deluxe Soundwave's entire upper body.

    Suuuuuuuuuuuuch an easy pass. The design was subpar when I bought it two years ago and a couple terrible "cassettes" isn't making me want it either.

    I really like the box art & cant wait to see Grimlocks!

    Im still unsure on this Soundwave though, hes seems too big to go with the other WFC/FOC figures.

    i can't wait to pick up grimlock though.

    if they were smart (which we all know they're not) they would give us the rest of the dinobots. almost everyone, kids included, LOVES transforming dinosaurs.

    but hey, this is the same company that came up with the terrible bruticus figure and couldn't even release the retail version with remotely accurate colors.

    Well... I assume if he holds 3 discs... Frenzy/Rumble will eventually be sold at some point... a good question is how...

    And if not... I'm sure fakebuster will come to the rescue and create a pair of thugger twins to fit Voyager Soundwave.

    Admittedly... if there won't be an FoC Voyager-scaled version for Optimus and/or Megatron... Soundwave's going to outscale the current FoC lineup quite noticeably... bit of a con there...

    I like the idea of the auto-transform as the cassettes eject. Probably not much of a transformation, but hey, I'll take that as it is.

    Why do you think the phrase "sold separately' was invented?

    Are you SERIOUS?

    God, people hate it when Hasbro doesn't pretend it's still the '80s and people hate it when they do. The other discs will run you HALF of a Legends class purchase.

    I guarantee you, most of us have spent more than that on aftermarket stickers.

    HA. The Generations Voyagers are big by any standard. They had the Voyager Soundwave in a case with the new MP Optimus at BotCon. It looked like a linebacker next to a basketball player.
