An interesting yet entirely ineffective toy.
For this review I will be explaining my thoughts on this representation of soundwave via amazon.com's star based rating system.
How much fun?

Movie Soundwave: One Devilish Looking Decepticon !, June 4, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
with Transformers: Revenge of the fallen coming to theaters later this month..i like others were excited to hear that Soundwave the Decepticon Communicator, and megatron's head Intelligence officer will be making his big screen debut.
when i first saw spy pics of Soundwave in january i was shocked..the design was a radical departure from the tape deck character we all know. But, this design works for the film..his disguise is a communications satellite. in short Soundwave rocks! lots of detail here.
he is one Devilish looking decepticon the design retains his G1 style head(great touch takara/hasbro !) the color scheme is reminiscent of his g1 days also. he is quite poseable and is well built...i like his claws and his arms they wanted the movie transformers to look totally alien, and they succeded..
he also comes with ravage that launches from him ( ala g1 days) ravage as you know is the cassette Kitty that is loyal to soundwave..however hes not transformable...perhaps a later version will have a transformable one because hes in the film. mabey laserbeak too? one can only hope:)
Soundwave, is one of my favorite Decepticons, and i think they did a nice job on him..hes worth getting. like Optimus prime, hes hard to get..i went to 2 stores before i landed 2 of him (one to open and one to keep sealed in the package)
pros: its soundwave!
good articulation
movie accurate detail in all modes
cons: ravage is non transformable (they probably did this to keep the price lower)
if you can find soundwave, grab him..hes worth checking out. (hope they keep his cool monotonic voice for the movie, like prime's the voice is classic)
keep this one away from little Johnny, hes a bit fragile and you know how kids are careless sometimes...these are made for the collector and rightfully so..
RAVAGE....EJECT...EJECT

Transformers come apart too easily but go back too, December 28, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
Kids like these and my nephew was delighted with it. But he had problems with one part continually coming off. It didn't bother him as he said they are easy to put back together. So yes, I was pleased with this except that by description I thought it was bigger than it was - my mistake though as I learned.

the puzzle that is Soundwave, August 19, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
I only have a few miner gripes w/ this toy. 1 i thought it should be a Voyager size toy, *like Ironhide, Starscream etc* but whatever. I wish he had more secure snaps or hooks to hold things in place better. but other then that i like that fact that he's a satillite more then a mass-shifting 30 ft robot, and a 15inch boombox.

second best soundwave ever!!!, August 3, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
i prefer the giant helicopter/tank in the PS2 game he resembled, however the movie Soundwave kicked buns, he kind of looks animated, but still cool, and i know its not Hasbro's fault i prefer the movie toys to the animated ones. pretty cool how he retains his Cybertronian forms, and can then become a satellite, to bad they didn't make a toy satellite for him to hack ...hehe heh... anyways i love his quick transformations, and transparent blue circular parts which resemble sub woofers haha. only downfall for me was his satellite mode was too similar to his vehicular mode or the other way around. so i turned his side blade/solar panels in during satellite mode resembling a caccoon, and hung him from my ceiling, Yay! didn't have any weapons but neither did his movie counterpart, but his ravage missile made me want to buy deluxe ravage, which i did... don't tell my mother.

Soundwave, July 20, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
I picked up the new Soundwave and was quite surprised by how much I enjoy this figure. Its robot mode is awesome allowing for some pieces to be moved around to create interesting poses, The flight and satellite are mostly the same but still looking good the missile on his back I assume represents the same missile he fired in the movie which was a entry pod for ravage has a cool detailed look about it.
As a collector of transformers (just starting out) this is a pretty good Soundwave. I would suggest all collectors and fans of transformers to pick it up.

Good For My 1st ROTF Figure, May 30, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
I went to my local Toys R Us and today, we have ROTF in stock. I got this guy and legends class Bumblebee. I was looking forward to this guy since I first saw him. The only real complaint I have is that the ball hinge on one of his legs is looser than the other. But very minor. I wanted to get FAB Skids, but they didn't have him. I recomend this.

An interesting yet entirely ineffective toy., August 22, 2009
Durability: Fun: Educational:
This review is from: Transformers Movie 2 Deluxe Soundwave Figure (Toy)
For this review I will be explaining my thoughts on this representation of soundwave via amazon.com's star based rating system.
How much fun?
Soundwave is not fun to play with as he is basically bad in any configuration you can put him in. As a satelite he is unrealistic so that is no disguise and for a transformer that is a problem. His space cruiser mode is an attempt to stretch the satellite form into a third mode in order to call him a triple changer. This form is a simple wing shift that looks ok at best. The robot mode, though having potential is rather fragile and awkward which leads to...
How durable?
Soundwave is not durable. His legs fall off easily the satellite panels fall off constantly and the hair trigger on the missile makes it fire without warning losing that piece. Losing parts and a lack of solid engineering does not hold well for the next question.
How educational?
This toy is in no way shape or form educational. As stated earlier his satelite form has no realism to it so learning about space is out. His engineering is flawed without any solid structure and this flimsiness will only teach kids that this item was a waste of time and money.
Overall?
This is a bad toy that has completely failed ALL aspects of this review and therefore I conclude that this rendition of soundwave is not going to be good for kids or collectors.
Thank you for your time.
