OMG !!

Looks good! Any diecast?
Thundershot
Whoa... Too bad he's Masterpiece sized (though he uses the G1 cassettes). I'd much rather have a CHUG sized one... hm...

BTS, you're fucked! lol

Wow, nice work!

It is just a prototype, the final version will come later.
Any advice will be appreciated.
The only thing I can think of is maybe the cassette door could fold in more flush.
Megatron31
THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!

prime and grimlock are going to be overrun on the masterpiece shelf
destrongerlupus
Anyone wanna do a mirror?

Though MP-scale has already knocked him off my list even before seeing the pics :/
Josh
whoa!

where have you been all my life, gorgeous???

:3
OptionZero
He'll be a bit tall for classics but I might use him anyways since ge looks so good.

Actually I think being that size helps him be more proportioned while fitting g1 cassettes.

He needs some hardpoints for PE stuff
CVprowl
aww man... that. is. awesome.

my advice, keep the price down. : )
REMINATOR
He's definitely look awesome!!
ShyGuy
Looks amazing, but it's too bad he's MP size. A classics sized one would have been great. I really like it though, I might go ahead and get it anyway. I've wanted a cartoon-accurate Soundwave for years.
adconx2
Holy Crap!
Satomiblood
That's pretty sweet. It's a shame Takara hasn't done this already. I almost feel that they should've produced an MP Soundwave before Hot Rod/Rodimus.
Deadsled
DAYM!! that is an instant buy!
JazzMeister19
I want this, but I think it's too big for what I need it for Still looks great though!
Kupp
OMFG! MP sized too, I think that is the most compelling thing I have seen from these companies in a long long time.
Ravage_Eject
Wow! That looks awesome! If/When this goes up for sale...I may/will have to get him! : )

WOW

This, and also somehow make the tape controls look more like buttons in alt-mode, rather than a button-encrusted crotch.

Otherwise - wow! Awesome!!!!
Cax6ton
Bricks were shat. More info please

in all honesty, would be nicer if just a little taller.

Amazing! Finally a worthy update to G1 Soundwave!

Not really. Yes this is an AWESOME Soundwave but it is a totally different scale.

BTS is Classics sized and styled.

This Soundwave is MP sized and will either go with MPs or possibly with iGears PP line.

Either way, welcome new group and SW is bought.....bring on Blaster
hardreturn
damn. yes.

Great work, but I think the kibble that prevents the legs to go up could be easily articulated, Optimus Masterpiece style. Simple separate it from the center piece and allow it to go up. An easy and cheap trick that would improve poseability greatly.

I also think one or two cassette-cons are mandatory.
Transformed
WOW!
The Madness
Great sculpting.

When it comes to news of third-party figures, I usually just ignore it. But this guy looks quite impressive!

(I'm definitely not gonna buy it, though - probably gonna be really expensive.)
gothsaurus
wow. Hasbro/Takara not only have to do a nice job designing, but step up the pace to beat these guys to the punch.

Soundwave was (and still is) the logical choice for the next official Masterpiece. After a barrage of Primes and Grimlock, it's time for another Decepticon... He's a large scale character and has a logical repaint to help recoup money on the mold. He can also be augmented with accessory cassettes. (Guessing a couple different tapes with each version. Buy both to get them all.)

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!

Third parties, my wallet says NO MAS but my geeky heart says MOARPLZ. Why you do this to me?! XD

Really loving the mold; simple yet detailed, sturdy and blocky and G1 inspired all the way! Now THIS is a Masterpiece Soundwave, y'all! Fans rejoice!!
Dex17113
Must have!!!
Haloid1177
This is going to be ridiculously expensive.
Timesynch
Whoa, I think MP not-Soundwave just broke TFW's Internetz, lol. He's that damn popular! HasTak seriously missed the boat on this guy. Instead of yet another Prime, this should have been the next Masterpiece!
marshall dusty
impressive. awesome. more than likely a must buy.
Deceptijohn
Yes!!!!! Put the Pre-order up NAO!!!!
adamthered
Makes me glad I am getting out of the MP side of collecting. This is awesome but I need to refocus my attention to Classic/Third Party classicesque figures.
Deceptigtar
yes please , a lot please!
supervir2
Bought!
Lazerwave
Is that confirmed to be MP-11? If it is, I'd buy it.
Bgrngod
Wow. Did NOT see that coming. And holy shit it's a post from Dalianjj!! (Still digging the trailer)

Definitely bought.

It's not a Takara or Hasbro product.
