    That doesn't look any more like Soundwave than the movie toy. You could put any head on it and it could be just about any Transformer. Great art, though.

    Me I'll be happy when the franchise is handed off to a new director and a new artist.

    Comparing it to Star Trek, oh come on at least you can look at Spock and go hey that's Mr Spock. While I'm not loving the look of the Enterprise at least they didn't totally redesign it completly with useless pointy bits. And hey while they might have ramped up the action to fit the current line of film making at least the trailer had a Star Trek feel to it unlike the Transformers movie.

    Not my cup of tea, but that doesn't mean it's horrible. If it's as well engineered as the toys from the movies, it will tempt me, but I've only got so much money these days.

    Should be fun to see how it translates to the big screen. I'm hoping they vary up the colors a little more on the characters this time around to give them more pop on the screen and make it slightly easier to differentiate between various bots/cons and their appendages. If the colors hold in the film from this toy they may be moving in that direction...

    Looks cool, just trying to figure out the difference between, the geewunnn, whiners and emos.......... seriously everyone is entitled to there own opinions, but why do certain douche bags on here feel the need to quote, and make some snarky remark.... seriously, the quote button, not the quotes dont even exist. If you like it good, I like it to, but if you dont like it you dont have to flame people that do, nor do you have to call it a ugly pile of shit, just to see if you can piss people off. Its a god damned toy, freaky bros, if you dont like it THEN DONT GET IT! Simple....... I for one do like it, but I thin if he has the earth mode pickup, which he probably will, ill get it instead, i predict the pickup one will come with some kinda ravage, toy like they did with frenzy.

    I think this is a deluxe though, still digging the head. Still wants to see the earth mode bad, hopefully it will be a voyager, or leader class.

    I really hope you're kidding. Generation One is the main reason for all of this. And even if you are kidding please don't spell Gen 1 gee wun. It makes you sound like a 12 year old. Or is that the idea?

    The colour scheme reminds me of the bat Optimus Primal.

    I agree. Yeah it seems like all the figures have nothing but grey on them these days. Look at Classics Cyclonus. It's like they don't have the money to pain them or something.

    That aside, even if it was painted more, this is still just as weird and f-ugly as all the other movie designs.

    Me neither.

    I read some of the posts on this thread ... let's just say it felt as if all of TFW2005 had traveled to the past ... to late '06, early '07. :rolleyes2 

    I thought we were past that.

    As preview figures goes - which is what I think this is - Soundwave looks pretty nice.
