I honestly like that the Kingdom one is so small. Since Soundwave does mass shift for his alt mode. So, I can have the Siege one for robot mode, and the Kingdom one for the Walkman mode.
That is a great use for it. I wish I had brought that up in the video.
The only time he didn’t mass shift has the greatest transformers episode ever the episode where combiners are tiny huffer and brawn get revived for one scene and broadside get his ugly face
@@shockwavefan1367which one? I have to watch it
@@ShadowPrime69 carnage in c-minor
@@shockwavefan1367 its beautiful
A factor that always matters a lot in my judgement of a figure and is luckily becoming more common amongst modern Mp scaled figures is individualy articulated fingers. These are always a delight and there's actually an upgrade kit with super articulated hands for Mp Soundwave.
I will counter that with "They are Usually a delight" I have run into fingers that are a night mare I'd rather not have honestly. Like one's that pop off and get stuck all the time.
I have to disagree. Unless you're especially devoted to finger posing posable fingers are almost always a detriment to looks and longevity.
@@DiggitySlice I'm not saying that individually articulated fingers are everything. I'm just saying that they're a big plus TO ME.
There's an upgrade kit for SS86 Grimlock someone made on Ebay that replaces his regular hands with individually articulated fingers. I was looking at 86 Grimlock stuff a few days ago and chanced on a review of it.
Unfortunately it comes with a fully red sword with the hilt being shiny red plastic with no option to not get it, but I suppose the sword fits 86 Slag if you get that figure to.
@@TheDaxter11 I don't have that figure unfortunately
I love the siege one's fan modes for being cybertronian equipment. Like Soundwave has always felt like the customer service/tech support, so being some kind of alien router that can break into any computer software within a radius works perfect for me. And I love the bay idea that he'll more likely stay in orbit spying in this siege's cruiser mode than be in the front lines, I've done so many fan modes from human bay satelite to a box with the legs on the sides following the shuttle instructions and he's such a chunky charm
He is weirdly Fan Modeable. Like the first thing I ever did with his transformation is just come up with a couple fan modes.
You were right on point about how so many other reviewers are somehow afraid to be negative these days. I think they're so swept up by the accuracy of the figures, they completely overlook critical issues like plastic quality, transformation, and general value. Or maybe they're afraid of losing subscribers for being negative. Whatever the case, this is why I trust your opinions on TF figures so much more than other reviewers. The majority of the time, you are honest and unbiased and I for one appreciate that!
Yeah, I don't quite get what they have to be affraid of.
I have not found much to any push back on being negative most of the time. It sure does not seem to have cost me a subscriber growth.
Not sure what reviewers you’re seeing, because in my experience the exact opposite problem exists.
If I had to guess, maybe their afraid that a sponsor won't send them figures if they harp on them. The problem with that is, us, the consumers. I don't want to be shilled into buying something that's not gonna be what I was told it WOULD be. Nothing is perfect, but please, if your gonna review things, you have a job to do and a I dare say, the obligation to tell us if something sucks.
@@shawndashno6022 Precisely!
Reasons why perspective is a great reviewer, and gets too much hate
Congrats on 6k! I think the best, taking price into consideration, is Kingdom core class. MP is awesome, but pricey, Siege is super cool, ER is fairly over-rated, SS is great, but Kingdom does so much at such a small size and price, and it looks better than ER and Siege.
Yes, but I intentionally it don't take price into consideration because I am trying to find the definitive version of the character.
And definitive that knows no price.
Ayyyy it's my favorite Cybertronian
I think he's just about everyone's favorite.
One Soundwave design I really liked was Prime Soundwave. Transformers: Prime was the first transformers show I watched, and Soundwave was by far the scariest of the Decepticons. His blank screen for a face and stoic silence for 99.9% of the entire series give no hints as to what's going on inside that head of his. The military drone for an alt mode is a great way to modernize his design and role as a spy and intel gatherer. It also made him much more intimidating, he really has that look to him that makes you think "He's just standing there, MENACINGLY!"
I also loved that episode of Robots in disguise (2015) when Soundwave was freed from the Shadowzone. Him tossing around Bumblebee, Strongarm, and Grimlock like a bag of scrap was fun to watch.
He is a very threatening design in that. I don't know that it fits Soundwave as a character so much, but in that it was such a different dude so it worked.
@@PerspectiveEnd When Soundwave spoke towards the end of Transformers: Prime, that made him even more intimidating to me, since I had never watched any transformers media before TF:P and had no idea what Soundwave's voice was supposed to be like.
I like it honestly, but are you ready to blow your goddamn mind
I perfer the RID 2015 upgrade design, I don’t know what it is, but I like it a lot more
Fanstoys Acoustic wave is the GOAT
I can't agree to that, I can admit that it might look better in robot mode.
But from what I've seen of the posability, transformation, and altmode are all worse than the official masterpiece.
@@PerspectiveEnd Articulation and transformation are also better with the Netflix soundwave too, that doesn’t mean it’s better. Presence has to mean more than those other factors you mentioned because at the end of the day these are display pieces
I like to have siege sound and kingdom sound together, kingdom works as a teeny mass-shifted version of the player mode the siege really lacked
That is a fun thing to use it for. It also works really well with the masterpiece for that function.
Soundwave superior
Superior to Sadwave for sure.
6:48 thank you for being the 1% to admit this figure aint it chief; I completely agree. He literally turns into a glorified square.
Also if you take off the parts that make up the backpack of the Siege one and color the visor red somehow, then it looks REALLY good; I did it with mine and it really made him significantly better. I also just use the fan mode for him.
You are welcome, I never want to convince any of you to buy something that doesn't satisfy you.
I kind of like the backpack on the siege Soundwave, it's definitely a unique.
I still can't believe that Hasbro and Takara sold Earthrise aka Sunbow Soundwave in a Netflix package, that was literally false advertising
Hah! Yeah, I guess you are right about that. Though Technically nearly the whole Buzzworthy Bumblebee is a lie.
Besides, who needs a cassette mode when you have…. THE LAMPPOST MODE!
The lamp post mode is awful. It's more an ascended fan mode, it looks next to nothing like he did in the show. Siege Starscream can do a better Soundwave Lamp Post Mode.
Congrats on 6k
This is a video that we needed for awhile now. I’m glad to see this channel grow.
Thank you so very much!
And I'm happy it too have finally given it to you guys.
If the soundwave figure can be posed to make it look like he’s pressing the eject button it’s good in my opinion
Yes, that is a vital pose for Soundwave two would get into. The most important one. One and that the studio series of bumblebee version it cannot do.
77% of a figure? “Two thirds of this figure is a failure” something ain’t right
Did I say that? Whoops. I guess that's still kind of vaguely 2/3rds.
That went about like I thought it would, nice vid man!
Yeah, this one is probably a surprises to nobody.
I think that everyone knew Masterpiece Soundwave would be first place 💀💀💀
Of course they did. Yall aren't Mad!
I guess mechanical alliance has learned their lesson from their blitzwing
They hopefully seem to have yes.
Masterpiece Soundwave is simply superior. Shoutouts to like the near 200 people who said that same joke before me.
Glad you picked up the Mechanical Alliance version too, and I'm also glad you agreed with my point on how that figure was at least trying with an alt mode.
It is definitely a joke that has been made several times now.
The scale of the mechanical alliance figure did not register until you put the SS one next to it. But goddamn, that things only 60$? Worth.
Yeah, I forgot to mention how big it is, the damn thing is huge, I had to use a wide angle lens just to get it in shot, that's why you couldn't see the light bars of of the figure when it was there.
The mechanical alliance Soundwave transforms into a space loaf of bread
Honestly you aren't wrong.
Sometimes I really miss my MP Soundwave but then I look at my channel and feel better knowing that my Soundwave left me so that this channel could arrive. Selling him was hard but I invested the money into my channel.
I have the Seige Soundblaster and the alt mode is weird but still pretty neat. I am going to try that idea of removing the arms thx for letting me know :)
Congrats on the 6k mate! thats fucking awsome super happy that your channel has done so well :) :) :)
I'm sorry to hear that, glad you feel it was worth it, but man that is a figure that sucks to lose.
And thank you, I'm beyond thrilled with it's performance my self.
I kind of hate the fact that the Siege Soundwave’s alt-mode can be achieved in half the steps. They probably could have included a backwards butterfly if they removed some of the steps. Also, that antenna bit is so unnecessary. They could have made this a half-assed triple changer that turns into a robot, Cybertronian Log Player (cassette player), and an alright ship. If I designed this I would make it so you could store the weapons inside of the backpack like the original G1 toy.
Yeah it annoys me too. They either could have added more Posability, or done anything else with the altmode. Hell if they just had a Dedicated Lamppost mode rather than the ascended fan mode the actual figure got.
I have been waiting for this and I can say I love this
Im happy it too have to satisfy you.
video title: What's the best soundwave
Bayverse soundwave: Hey I'm soundwave too.
PE: trust me, you are not that guy pal, You are not that guy
I will say that if the result of this weren't skewed by the accuracy to the classic interpritation of the character, then the mechanical alliance would have done better.
@@PerspectiveEnd well said
I looked for a core Soundwave other day and my local toy store has every core except Soundwave...
That's probably because people know he's the best and when the store gets shipments in, everyone goes straight for the Soundwave.
Great job I've been watching since like 1 month or something since your first video and then I watched all the others I love your UA-cam videos thank you for doing this they always make me laugh
Thank you for a sticking with me a so long. I'm glad I get the opportunity to entertain you.
@@PerspectiveEnd hey you think you can give my youtube channel cuz in like 1 week I will do stop Moshon ive already made vids for it
As someone just getting back into transformers since I was a kid your objectivity is incredibly useful when looking for what I want to buy first.
BTW, there is a third party Bumblebee Soundwave toy that transforms into his iconic boom box.
Wait which one is that?
One thing I like about siege sound wave was that the box had a hidden diagram telling you that it can turn into the street lamp he turned into in the first episode of the cartoon
I remember that, but the Telephone mode really is just an Ascended fan mode, and not really convincing at all.
@@PerspectiveEnd you’re right, but it’s funny
I always wondered what the little blasters on his forearms were for.
Shattered Glass Soundwave is Earthrise SW with Siege SW arms, but with a cool headband.
The ones that were meant as Landing Gear for the Siege, that they just never tooled away.
Mutant Soundwave is obviously SSS tier especially with his epic self combusting due to GPS feature
I remember really like the mutant Soundwave as a child.
Question, how do you think the SS86 Ironhide and ratchet figures will turn out or work? I dunno why I wanna ask this but it seems intriguing to me cus I’ve asked loads of people but I’ve not heard a similar opinion from anyone
I'm not sure, but I'm really, REALLY praying they don't wind up being Rereleases of the ER figures.
@@PerspectiveEnd same with the rumored silverstreak, probably gonna be ER but I’d love to see a new mold
I hope it's rereleases of the Earthrise figures but with improvements.
@@dustyyshellz1320 Silverstreak basically IS the Earthrise one but with the Diaclone deco that fans call "Blue Bluestreak".
@@DragoonMS the one that was leaked recently?
Perspective ends: "live is a destination not a journey"
Me: excuse me
You heard me.
@@PerspectiveEnd So im not dreaming
I once saw the MP soundwave in a Toys, R us a couple years ago, but never bought it for two reasons
1. Back when I first started watching transformers, I was only familiar with prime, rescue bots, and RID 2015, so I didn’t fully know who soundwave was (outside of the name of course)
2. and probably bigger reason, I was there to buy a huge Lego set.
Truly lego made you lose out.
@@PerspectiveEnd that is true. Though I will someday get a MP Soundwave
It realy shows, how good g1 Soundwave 's design, even if the worst figure representing it, still has a cool robot mode.
Yeah, soundwave's design is a classic.
Oh shoot you hit 6k subscribers!!!!!! Good job! The Masterpiece Soundwave is definitely the best figure.
Thank you very much! and yeah he sure is.
Kingdom Soundwave is one of the closest things we have to a Nendoroid Soundwave. Hopefully we get him after Starscream.
Do you really want one of those or something?
If you want Siege alt mode to be accurate, you can transform him into the lamp post from the first episode of Sunbow cartoon
You can not. That's a nice easter egg the put in there, but it looks little to nothing like the Show Model.
I genuinely want a well designed Soundwave with an earth mode that makes sense
I mean what would make sense today would be a Smart phone.
@PerspectiveEnd that's a take I've never heard before, I was thinking of a vehicle. But if you're cool with mass shifting, then that is a good alt mode
You’re very much welcome for the 600k subscribers.
I'm not quite at 600 K yet. Only six. But thank you.
Congratulations on 6.25k subscribers!
Thank you so much!
Congratulations on 6,000 subscribers! Speaking of Soundwave, what are your thoughts on the FansToys Soundwave? Everything seems to say it's a perfect figure with no flaws and leagues better than the Masterpiece. I think your opinion would be very interesting on this .
Thank you very much!
I would like to get a hold of one of those up for comparisons a sake, but I don't see it as being a superior to the masterpiece.
It looks about on par with the masterpiece, but from what I've seen the posability is not that different, the transformation is much worse, and the altmode is not as good.
So I expect it to not be the equal of the official.
I haven’t watched the video yet, but I’m guessing all the figures will be fighting to see who’s second best to the MP.
Pretty much!
Congratulations on the 6000 subscribers. I love your work
Thank you so very much, I hope to never stop entertaining you.
One thing I never understood when making soundwave as a toy, is finding a suitable vehicle mode for him. Siege turned him into a hovercraft which gives some logic but it doesn't really work. And though Im not a fan of walkman soundwave, its kind of growing on me, especially after TFP where soundwave incorporates ground bridge technology so I could just imagine him teleporting around. But why not just make him an SUV? I mean it worked on other incarnations.
SUV Soundwave feels very lame to me. I like that he was something special before. Making him a vehicle like everyone else robs him of something that made him stand out.
Congrats on 6K my man! Been awesome to see you grow these past few years. Here’s to the future my friend.
Past few years? It's been 1 and a half.
But thank you. I'm so proud of everything I've built here.
@@PerspectiveEnd Wow that’s it!? Man it feels like it’s been longer. These past few years have screwed with my perception of time lol
6:45 - Well said. A review ain't a review without it's faults and negatives. Not everything has to be perfect because each of it's own has it's flaws and imperfection. They have their opinions, while we have ours. I don't mind you being critical and harsh on some figures you own in your collection, because not only that they look and feel good, but pointing out the negatives are okay too. There's no need to be afraid to be critical or harsh on a thing you do not like in a figure. Anyone cannot be pleased and it results in a mix bag for everyone. Looks aren't everything, even with the build quality, materials, construction and engineering.
Also, to answer your comment you replied from your other video, I tend to comment on your stuff if I want to, but keep up the great work. :) I'm still watching more of your stuff because they're great!
Thank you so much for the kind words. All was could have success with this more critical approach, I don't know why everyone seems so opposed to the idea.
It's worked out great for me.
Congrats on 6k, dude.
Thank you so much!
You are right. 100% of English reviewers are all just saying only positives and zero negatives it's frustrating, and feels like a betrayal when you get the toy and it's not as good as you've been shilled
Yeah, I try to reserve my Praise for the best of the best.
The mech alliance figure was a surprise can't wait for the video also which new legacy figure would you consider to pick up mines is g2 laser Optimus and dragstrip
I want to try all the new figures honestly.
86 soundwave turns into a mp3 from the 2000's
Not even an MP3 player, an MP3.
Just a physical representation of that data out that makes up a song.
The pin in my Netflix soundwave’s foot was put in slightly diagonally so the ankle is slowly killing itself by existing, fuck
That sucks, sorry to hear that.
@@PerspectiveEnd in all honesty, it’s not that big of a blow, the arm kibble is too much for me, not because it’s that bad but because it has no reason to exist besides laziness, I would have been more pissed had it been a figure I cared about rather than just a rare one
There is a reason why they haven’t tried to make a mp sound wave 2.0
Yes, absolutely, they realize they nailed it, almost every company realizes they nailed it.
This reviews gonna be just a series of passive aggressive defenses in near future, and this is hilarious
How do you mean
@@PerspectiveEnd I mean, that this assholistic approach of expressing one's opinion doesn’t really lead to healthy video reviewing career, and I find this hilarious.
I hope I explain it clear enough.
I have the robots in disguise soundwave and it’s one of my favorites. I’ve always loved soundwave’s earth modes better. They’re always so different from each other
Honestly when Soundwave is not a tape recorder, he has one of the most varied altmode portfolios.
Studio series Bumblebee soundwave's alternate mode lets me hear: *"Can the Spiderman Come out to play?"* for some reason. All I'm saying is that it looks like Green Goblin's hover thing (Idk what it's called)
It does look like that yeah.
There is an upgrade kit for siege soundwave that allows its shoulders to slide back so you can make a cassette player without partsforming his arms
I have heard about that one, it's just this way you don't spend any more money on it which could negatively impact help some people feel about it.
2:54 I think that just may vary among the figures. My Soundblaster’s tape gimmick works fine, but one thing to note about it is that for the switch on the back, you have to push it halfway down when there’s three tapes in and you take the front tape out to push the back two forward. Push it all the way down when trying to push the back two forward and it will get stuck. Though it’s not an easy task since the switch takes some force to push down, and when it does, it wants to push all the way down.
See even when there's no tapes in there, it doesn't work, it locks up, and I have to break out a coat hanger to fish it back out.
@@PerspectiveEnd Then it must be something that varies with copies. I just know mine doesn’t jam without the taps, only if I accidentally flip the switch all the way down when trying to push up two tapes from the back.
8:10 THIRD PARTY DESGNERS, TO YOUR 3D MODELLLING PROGRAMS.
8:16 Omg, this and his saddened expression makes him look like he is constantly in pain
Not sure what the first part is about, but the second part made me laugh.
@@PerspectiveEnd I was saying that third party should make movie soundwave with his concept art hovercraft mode
If you miss transform the bumblebee Soundwave to have the 5 mm ports on the top and plug his gun intercept ports you get a better looking alt mode than what we got
Yeah pretty much, if only the gun could've ended up in a more reasonable place.
Soundwave being a cassette player, will always be his signature alt mode. But for me, I think the Siege cybertronian form looks better. His hovercraft mode looks cool to me. The Earthrise Netflix version is second place for me. The Studio Series Bumblebee movie Soundwave is both cool and sucks. His robot mode looks very accurate to his movie appearance. The boxy with rectangular body shape makes him as robotic as his voice. Sure he can't press the button to open his cassette chest, but he didn't have a button to press in the movie, it was just on command, so it's alright. His hovercraft glider alt mode looks bad. The concept art of this mode, where the arms were in front instead of the legs, looks better. If given more time to engineer the transformation to look like the concept art, it have would looks as cool as his robot mode. Though I do like how it reference his alt mode from that GI Joe comic, but it still looks sucks.
Interesting, I think it would look a lot better if the underside Kibble on the space barge mode it wasn't so bad.
But if it just came down to robot mode, I'd still say that the masterpiece is the best.
I think I have the same number of Soundwaves as you, but they're all completely different. I have: Titans Return Soundwave, G1 Soundwave (Encore Reissue), FoC Soundwave, RiD 2015 Warrior Class Soundwave, Prime RiD Deluxe and Legion Soundwaves. It's quite amazing that we both have substantial Soundwave collections without having any versions of the character in common.
I really Wish I had the TR version for this video.
For a minute there, I thought you were going to put earthrise over seige!
Nice work.
For a minute there, I thought I was going to as well.
Congratulations on 6.000 subscribers man, your built different , your content never failed to entertain me
Thank you so much for the Kind words. so happy I get the opportunity to entertain so many people.
Thanks for a awesome soundwave ranking
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I recently bought Kingdom Blaster and oh boy it's making me crave more Soundwave figures with a cassette player alt-mode. The Soundwave figures I currently own are G1, RoTF, Fall of Cybertron (technically it's Soundblaster but I'm still counting it), and Titan's Return.
While typing this it just occurred to me only two of them turn into cassette players...I must atone for my sins- Wait, MP Soundwave is now $250-$300 on eBay...FUCK.
Welp, time to start saving for a knockoff.
P.S. Kingdom Blaster is a pretty nice figure. The only things to be careful of are when the legs fold over the hands during transformation and the fact that Eject is made completely out of transparent plastic and has really stiff joints. Overall tho, it makes for a nice addition to anyone's collection. I recommend picking it up when your financial situation gets better and if you can find it for ~$20-$25.
I hear the knockoffs are of good quality. I expect that you will still love it if you get it.
I have yet to see a kingdom of blaster but if I do I don't know if I will be able to stop my self from picking it up.
The real Soundwave were the cassettes we labeled along the way
I'm not sure what you mean by that.
congratulations on 6k!
gonna be honest, your review style is unique and i actually like that!
also i customized my siege soundwave cuz i ain’t goin bankrupt today!
Thank you so much!
I'm glad you enjoy my style.
And how exactly did you customize your siege Soundwave?
@@PerspectiveEnd i used a red sharpie to customize his visor and i took the kibble off him’
im also gonna use the core class one for his alt mode!
I find it funny that I got a siege ravage and lazerbeak the same day you made a whats the best soundwave
I almost included reviews of the cassettes, but I felt the video would be long enough without them.
@@PerspectiveEnd lol
Now I wish I didn’t get the studio series bumblebee soundwave and waited for something better
I'm sorry to hear it you regret your purchase.
I know that I said it's bad it, but if you do end of getting it I always want you to like it. Regardless of how I feel about it.
My top two:
1) RP/FT Acoustic Wave (Most toon accurate in both modes, solid, good articulation, comes with Toy Accurate option accessories)
2) MP-13 Soundwave (Well built, great detail, solid in both modes and holds up pretty well for a 10-year old figure)
The 3rd party Acoustic Wave edges out on top for its toon accuracy and giving the toy accurate optional accessories that also looks great. The cassettes look better as well, imo and all near solid diecast, so they don't feel loose and cheap.
I don't know that I'd say the RP/FT is more accurate in altmode.
See the problem with that, is that As I understand it the posing is worse on the FT but ok, and the Transformation is also worse, also I've heard that Frenzy and Rumble are very loose in their legs.
So as I see it right now, the FT would not overtake the OG.
@@PerspectiveEnd Oh, the transformation process is definitely a chore and I personally wouldn't switch back and forth between robot and tape deck mode but he's solid with little to no gaps or hollow spaces. It's also nice that both his batteries actually fit in his backpack. He has a wide range of motion with his posing but you need to raise his hip flaps for some of the more dynamic posing but the trade off is that the flaps hide his hip joints so you don't the ball joints exposed like in the MP version. I haven't done a whole lot of posing with Rumble and Frenzy so I haven't experienced loose legs. The only complaint I might have is that the legs are hollow in the back but that seems to be a design choice as to allow the storage of their guns/shoulder cannons in tape mode.
If you have the MP Soundwave and aren't necessarily looking for a more G-1 toon accurate version then I'd say Acoustic isn't a big enough upgrade to justify the price point, especially since he only comes with Frenzy(or whichever you choose to call the red one), whereas the other 3 cassettes are sold separately. The only thing it lacks is maybe a decent ab crunch. I'm ok with that because Soundwave has been a more calculating and stoic character anyway, not typically lending himself to dynamic, Marvel superhero type poses.
If you're just a big fan of the character and have multiple Soundwaves already, or if you don't have the Masterpiece one and considering he goes for like $400 and up now, I think FT's version is a worthy successor.
I personally prefer the more simple, deco but solid style of the FT version while still having the option of the MP Toy details, including a completely different head sculpt.
Hey you used my "Crab mode" for Siege Soundwave.
It's uh... I was more so going for satilite.
Son I have been doing that crab mode since the first day I got this back in 2019.
Also, I could have sworn I've shown that off before.
Is it weird that I want a soundwave toy that transforms into a streetlight like he did in first episode of the original show?
Good points all around. If you should be so inclined, I (and maybe many others) recommend looking for the videogame deluxe soundwave for the downward wrist/sword holding goodness that is that figure.
You talking about the WFC Game Soundwave?
@@PerspectiveEnd yup. The deluxe one. Back wheel kibble is all that keeps it from being practically perfect for a hastak deluxe in my opinion.
just a heads up if you want a cybertron esk tape player mode for siege transform the arms and hips normally but instead of having the legs going flat out forward bend the knees so the panels that replace the feet are now facing the same direction as his chest hold out the thrusters then turn them so they are sideways fold out the landing gear and finally tab the guns into the legs also with netflix soundwave i legit think its trying to replicate the mp figure and not the cartoon model just due to it having the same details as the mp figure on his shoulders and knees the cartoon doesn't have those
Do you have pics of what you are describing because I can't envision that.
Here from the start good job man !
Thank you for sticking with me!
I want a siege sound wave because I figured out a fan mode without parts forming but it makes it look really alien
Oh yeah, what is that like, do you have pics.
@@PerspectiveEnd I really could only post them on UA-cam I’m smart enough not to have other social media
Why are the Soundwaves dedicating their heart in the thumbnail
It's just a a little salute I made them too. I figured that of all the Decepticons is Soundwave would likely salute a lot.
I got my first ever Soundwave a few weeks back. I found a guy on a buy/sell page selling his Siege Soundwave + Siege Laserbeak and Ravage, for only a few dollars more than a standard voyager + shipping.
Considering I've seen Netflix Soundwaves go for 2 or 3 times the store price, I think I got pretty lucky
Nice! And how are you liking that trio?
@@PerspectiveEnd I think my review is the standard.
Soundwave is pretty good in robot mode, turns into not much.
Laser beak is great, and Ravage stays as a cassette in Soundwaves chest, because that ravage looks better as a cassette
Congrats on the 6K subs!
A great list. Honestly I prefer Netflix over siege but that is because I do not like the battle damage paint job or the huge backpack but the thing that was the most important honestly was ravage actually looking more like a cassette tape and the redeco of lazerbeak. Also my tolerances seem to be a lot better on him than yours.
But yeah, the arms, the instability in tape mode without the guns plugged in and being able to see through the tape deck mode are disappointing but I still prefer that mode to the cybertronian one.
On another note, is there a particular Soundwave MP KO you would suggest looking at getting? I’d be interested in hearing about which ones you’ve heard good things about and which ones to avoid.
Thank you so much!
I would say make sure to look up reviews of any particular Soundwave you're looking at, but I know it that Wei Jiang is a pretty quality KO company.
Though most ko companies at this point are pretty good.
Just research them a little beforehand and you should be pretty safe in getting an awesome figure.
Awesome video as always man. Also do you intend on reviewing or picking up any Cyberverse figure? So far I've heard a lot of good thing about the deluxes and I plan on getting the deluxe Cheetor. But there's hardly any review about him. Would love to see your take on him or the line in general
I have heard they got better over time. Initially they were so bad.
I can say that I don't have much in the way of plans on reviewing those figure's.
I have to buy them, and they are is such a unique visual style they'd clash with my collection.
I might one day, but likely not.
This is just something I've always wondered about your videos. Why are your pictures always at a different aspect ratio than your actual footage?
I'm actually impressed you notice that. I honestly don't know. When running in video camera mode it kind of letterbox's, but when I change to photograph mode it expands out. They are also massively higher resolution than the actual camera.
The pictures it takes are about four times larger than the video.
I think R.E.D SOUNDWAVE is more accurate than any other because it is not a transforming toy and has every detail
But it's missing the transformation, and Altmode, meaning it's failing 2/3rds of it's needed criteria.
I was here for this historical event
Glad to have it here for this.
Regarding the Studio Series Bumblbee, I think you can give your honest opinions as much as you like, positive or negative, I like unbiased reviews so this a good review. Also the fact there’s no dislike button I think you do so as you please.
Oh no no no. I miss the Dislike button. I used to get disliked pretty badly on some videos but I'm perfectly ok with that. It doesn't hurt my feelings. If people want to tell me they are unhappy with my content I say let them.
Also thank you. I'm glad you enjoy my... Perspective. I will always attempt to keep my biases out of my videos.
Ss soundwave’s alt mode is like a stealth bomber is u use the door Idk that’s just how I see the alt mode when I have it in hand
Man I can not see it that why my self. For me it's just a Brick. A stealth bomber should sleek and radar proof.
Siege Starscream and Soundwave were the start of me collecting, and I love both.
Siege Starscream is understatedly excellent, and Soundwave was fun, though he really could have stood to have MORE of an Altmode.
@@PerspectiveEnd I´d have chosen to have either Ravage or Laerbeak come with him over a better alt-mode, instead of having to buy them as micromasters. Kingdom/Legacy Blaster comes with Eject, so it can be done...
I think that cut when you yelled fu then cut scared me
Sorry about that, it's just supposed to be funny.
@PerspectiveEnd no it was its just scared me and I was half awake
SS soundwave’s alt mode is clearly SS86 kup’s goblin glider
Where's it's thrusters then? And it's Pumpkin Bomb launchers? Riddle me that Spoderman.
Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting the inclusion of the Mechanical Alliance version of BB's soundwave. Given the existence of the Studio Series version of the figure, and the fact that we have concept art for what it was MEANT to turn into, I hope some kinda third party company shows up to give us that alt mode. Some sacrifices might be made for the robot mode, and I have no idea how it'd transform, but I'd still love to see it. What do you think?
I'd honestly like to see any version of the BB Soundwave that has a Good Altmode, what ever it may be.
@@PerspectiveEnd We can hope. It's a good design, it's just really hard to make an alt mode for that isn't a pile of nothing.
I do understand where your coming from when you say you don’t like the SS BBM Soundwave but even though it’s not that close to the concept art in alt mode it’s still not that far off and I mean the possibility is way better then most of my other figures and it’s pretty close to the cgi model and if you really cared about movie accuracy you could get a upgrade kit that makes it look like a mini MP figure I do understand why you put it so low if your looking specifically for a g1 Soundwave but just as a Soundwave it’s pretty good especially if you have ravage
I would fight you on the Poseability. I would call it well below the average, with Awful looking shoulders, and just below normal elbows and knees.
Also the Suggestion of an Upgrade kit doesn't fly here. It is my personal belief that a figure needs to Earn an Upgrade kit by being good enough. Not to need one to be good at all.
Watching this, a random thought entered my head. Why does everyone like Soundwave? Is it his voice? His look?
I don't know. But everyone does.
Considering how close Netflix Soundwave and Siegewave were I think it would have been fair to compare their accessories and price point. For me the cassettes swing the pendulum in Netwave’s favor but I could see the inflated price being enough to swing it in Siegewave’s favor if you already had the Siege cassettes.
I did think about that but only after the video had been recorded, and I'm kicking my self for having not done it now.
netwave also yellows far faster, quality wise it’s the worst soundwave we’ve ever received yet ppl treat it like hasbro’s magnum opus
I have had mp soundwave since like 2015 and he still is my favorite thing ever I own ngl
I know right! It's so good, nothing can top it.
Congrats on 6K! And I actually thought Siege would beat Earthrise. EDIT: Wait I got confused I was right lol
Congrats on your successful prediction! And thank you so very much. Thanks for sticking with me so long. You've been here since basically the start of my channel.
@@PerspectiveEnd Thanks man! I've loved watching these for so long, Thanks for being so great!
congrats on the 6 k subs dude you deserve more subs tho
Thank you very much, I'll work very hard to get more.
This video literally couldn't have come at a better time for me. I'm feeling frigging excited because I just found a Hasbro MP Soundwave complete in box being sold my someone for $250 CAD literally 5 minutes from my house. Sure, I have the Takara version, but that was a rerelease with really bad QC and a broken gimmick. I can't frigging wait to get my hands on a functioning version of the figure. Just need to finish scraping together some commission money
Well I'm glad to hear that you are excited to pick up another one, but oof that is a hefty sum.
@Wiley Midura When? I don't think that he is getting scammed. MP Soundwave is getting really expensive.
A bit hefty, but for all the Cassettes and for it to be in good condition, I think it's a pretty good deal. Especially since my Takara Soundwave that came defective was $350 CAD
@Wiley Midura For $250 CAD? Seems fair to me
I think there's an Upgrade kit for Siege Soundwave that adds a sliding rail for the mushroom peg so you don't have to partsform the arms for the Cassette Recorder Fan Mode.
