    Their OP looked amazing, but unfortunately it was only around Legends scale.  If they made CHUG scaled ones, I would be more interested.

    Yeah I agree. For a figure that had no clear alt mode or even transformation in mind, seriously I don’t think they even know how Optimus would’ve transformed, it’s nothing shocking.

    If these characters are revisited and are in a similar style with more time to designs sharpen the designs, we’ll probably get Studio Series figures with better alt modes.

    How do you define box? The G1 version was a rectangular box. What's the difference?

    Yes. And I refuse to buy G1 Soundwave or the like.

    "Box" as-in a rectangular form that does nothing but sit there. I would like Soundwave to have a proper vehicle mode. Something mobile. I think a cassette player/boombox/etc. to just be super lame for an alt mode.

    Personally, I feel Animated and WF/FOC did it best. Basically translating that rectangular tape deck look into a car. It felt like a natural progression for updating Soundwave. And every time I see Soundwave return as a tape player or similar, it feels like a huge step backward.

    Wow people are really complaining over a g1 inspired soundwave turning into a box.... wow what a time to be alive.....Just wow...

    If you guys are complaining about an altmode that doesn’t even effect his robot mode whatsoever than you might as well skip this and buy the triple A soundwave figure and take your whining somewhere else.

    That's some grade A bullshit right there. I'm happy that you seem to be OK with it, but having a shitty alt mode is absolutely a valid complaint for a TRANSFORMING FIGURE. And wait til you see the price on and the size on this thing. Having the bot mode be priority is one thing but this thing is 95% bot mode priority.

    Critiques of a figure aren't whining.. let's make that distinction.. We all like or dislike things and should be able to express that. Please keep it civil.

    I think that the altmode is missing a handle. That's about what I think it needs..
    I did a digibash below, and closed the door to show what it could look like with a handle...

    Still I think his altmode should be a large Liger with Ravage as his drone spy. Etc..

    Cyberverse/evergreen even takes it one step further. The kibble on top of their armored SUV is extremely reminiscent of an LRAD weapon, which is perfect for Soundwave. Just Google LRAD and you'll see tons of pictures of SWAT trucks with these mounted on them.

    Wait hold on. Unique Toys Megatron had no wings or jet parts outside so no one who sees thinks he can transform. He can have wheels inside his legs or arms or something. I can't doubt about those KO companies dark magic anymore

    It was $70 on ShowZ, I think Octobotimus is just confusing it with the masterpiece or 3A sized ones, this one is between deluxe and voyager size to scale with Studio Series.

    Bruh I don't get it. I can get lots of BMB, WJ oversized figures (like a GRIMLOCK OF FUCKING 38 CM) for 80 dollars each, but another figures of the new movies like Threezero ones are like 200 dolars. I haven't seen any good BB transformable Optimus in a good price. And now those 16cm figures cost 70. I hope BMB and WJ will make good ones on good price
