things i took away from this video: 1. New purpose for his weird-ass alt mode as a stage for Titans Return Rewind and the bois. 2. Potential new tape-deck mode that looks pretty decent. 3. A purpose for that weird extra gun as a soundwave battle hammer. 4. WFC Ravage still looks janky as heck. 5. I should subscribe to this channel, because good god that was entertaining as hell. I wonder how good Soundwave looks next to Titans Return Galvatron irl...
I just took the blades off megatons sword gun thing put the gun on his back and it looks pretty good to me the gun with soundwave on megatons back would look way to small
I still hold the theory that Hasbro focused all of their efforts on the robot mode. Then, after realising they had yet to give this figure an alt mode, they came up with whatever that is. There’s seriously no middle ground in this line when it comes to the alt modes. Either they’re just the G1 alt modes with some weird stuff added to them (like giant headlights or vents placed on the back) or they’re big blocks of nothing (Soundwave and Shockwave).
Kids would rathe get a figure that turns into a vehicle rather than a light That made me realise a soundwave desk lamp would be great with ligh in his chest letting him transform
Happy Canada Day, Brian. ☺ And what a great figure to review on such an occasion also; A Soundwave figure with a lackluster vehicle mode which I personally don't dislike, a totally canon streetlight mode (which I kind-of prefer to the main alt. mode a little), and a gorgeous looking robot mode! 😁 Also, that dance animation at 5:44 made me laugh WAY harder than I thought I would... And yes, I have no regrets, because that was genuinely funny to me! 😆
Hey I just wanna apologize if my comments have been getting on your nerves but I legitimately enjoy your videos! Nice to see a change from the hundreds of transformer bland reviewers! You deserve more subscribers than emgo!
Soundwave is high on my get list. That "ship" reminds me of one right out of Kingdom Hearts. One you have you shoot down and then can build to fly in. Love the homage mode to episode 1 of the G1 toon.
There are upgrade kits for this figure that fill in his arms and helps his tape deck mode look more g1 by adding sliders to the back of his shoulders Never mind you talked about the tape deck upgrade
Someone pointed out that the folding grey pole's barrel is a dead ringer for Megatron's "behind the shoulder" gun barrel, and at a distance with it mounded on Megs' back it looks spot on. Just don't look at it from the side or else it gets weird
Soundwave Sex Appeal indeed. I typically display all my figs in robot mode so I wasn't super broken up over the trash vehicle mode. I've gotten more from siege than I intended to frankly, and this guy's among my favorites.
I honestly think that soundwaves ship mode is not too bad. I like to think of it as a drop ship for his cassettes or maybe an aircraft carrier (that might be pushing it lol). But I could totally see it as a drop ship none the less. But we all know that just like every other siege figure ( maybe except springer) the robot mode is where it really shines. The robot mode absolutely out shines his ship mode. I mean there is also that lamppost mode which I genuinely think is better than that ship, and although it is a shame that there is no official Walkman mode, you can just manipulate the figure to get it. Like wrapping soundwaves legs around from the ship mode, making him look like a cybertronian boom box. Or you could pull off his arms. But there are also upgrade kits for soundwave. I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND BOTH THIS FIGURE AND THE SL51 SHOCKWAVE LAB KIT. This kit fills in the gappy arms as well as allowing the arms to SLIDE BACK. This creates enough room to fold the legs along the sides giving a more traditional looking cassette player mode. Overall, I love this figure and I happily pose him along side siege screamer and megs ;)
Idea for his "ship" altmode: Satellite a la Revenge of the Fallen. Still a bit boxier than most, but it DOESN'T have to be a ship. Just sayin. And good idea for those who're at the mercy of the scalpers who make the Netflix one a pain in the colon to get
To those how want a g1 lookalike soundwave figure but don’t want to pay like 1000 bucks or something like that for the masterpiece version then the transformers siege soundwave is the next best substitute for your g1 needs plus I think this is a awesome figure so what are you waiting for go to the store RIGHT NOW AND GET THIS FIGURE RIGHT NOW trust me it’s worth it 😎👍
TFanPage101 I never saw that, I just realised both ends were 3mm port comparable and realised it would work as a hammer so that's how I've had my soundwave displayed since I got it
Red lightpiping superior Yellow lightpiping inferior Like, I get it if peple like shockwave having yellow single eye, but soundwave?. Meeh looks very good anyway, but with red lightpiping , ohhh yea....
Happy Canada Day
Canada Day! Best Week Ever!
Hey I'm Canadian to when did Soundwave come out for you cuz he still isn't here for me
Yay
megascream/ lord starscream @ what are you doing hear starcream,din’t you hate soundwave? 🤔
Notice me Brian🔥👊

Just subbed. I think of his alt as a cybertonian trooptransport.
Just Subscribed-I totally Can't wait to add Soundwave to my Siege war for Cybertron collection.
Happy Canada day my fellow human Canadians
What about giving the gun to siege Megatron so you can peg it in his right back peg for a more Megatron look?
I just took the blades off megatons sword gun thing put the gun on his back and it looks pretty good to me the gun with soundwave on megatons back would look way to small
Works because the gun represents Megatron's gun mode

that grey thingy also turns Pteraxadon and Lionizer into SICK lances and halberds
...Oh wow I never considered that that's pretty swish
The useless grey gun can plug into the back of Siege Megatron's shoulder, and makes you recreate his G1 back shoulder cannon. :D
Why didn't they just use the lamp post mode by default?
Kids would rathe get a figure that turns into a vehicle rather than a light
That made me realise a soundwave desk lamp would be great with ligh in his chest letting him transform
Happy Canada Day my friend! With regards to the gun-extender thingy~ I put it on Megatron's back tank tread to replicate the gun barrel being there :)
That opening skit, tho. XDD
Edit: Oh my Guh, this was one year ago today! :0
the grey gun thing looks either like a Megatron gun mode or the back turret he usually has but not in the siege toy.

5:44 Uh... uhm is it p-p-PIZZA TIME!!!
Holy glorious light piping, TfanPage101!
Soundwave's alt mode looks like a Cybertronian cargoship
Happy Canada Day, wish I could freaking find this guy in stores lol.
even though i don't live in Canada nor Canadian i wish you guys a great day
Soundwave is high on my get list.
That "ship" reminds me of one right out of Kingdom Hearts. One you have you shoot down and then can build to fly in.

2:52 engy!
Someone pointed out that the folding grey pole's barrel is a dead ringer for Megatron's "behind the shoulder" gun barrel, and at a distance with it mounded on Megs' back it looks spot on.
Just don't look at it from the side or else it gets weird
that grey gun is to go on Megatrons back to make him look more G1
7:12 To check if Laserbeak is a boy or girl? That sounds questionable.
I actually think of laserbeak as a girl

6:10
the netflix show had an unorthadox solution to this
remove half of the kibble
I absolutely love this guys besides from his issue on his right arm
Happy Canada day to all Canadians!! I have this SoundWave and I’m definitely buying the upgrade kit soon!
6:16 i think its a microphone as a reference to Cybertron Soundwave
Had to watch this one again. I love the Eiffel 65 joke. :)
There is a upgrade kit for soundwave. Its even allowed him to transform into his boom box form.
Yeah, try watching the video before you comment.
I did 😊
Happy Canada day man.
Wow Great video and thanks for showing that hammer trick I'll use it for sure
I just gave Soundwaves extra not important gun to Battletrap because there is literally no point in Soundwave having it
Great videos
Nice just getting into transformers
Oh finally someone found out that you can build a hammer ore a spear
Idea for his "ship" altmode: Satellite a la Revenge of the Fallen. Still a bit boxier than most, but it DOESN'T have to be a ship. Just sayin.
And good idea for those who're at the mercy of the scalpers who make the Netflix one a pain in the colon to get
this is so sad...soundwave play linkin park
No u
its like a Macross ship!
I am gonna to need some dancing Soundwave gifs from this video.
Where did you find ravage & laserbeak in Canada?
Walmart
This is perfect
Great Review, as promised.
Despite having a garbage alt mode, this thing's robot mode is way better than the earthrise one for some reason
2:50 team fortress 2 reference. Also tfanpage do u play team fortress 2?
This guy talks like he's off his rocker but that's why I watch his videos.
The new Netflix sowendwave can transform into the cassette player
You might want to correct that, its pretty funny as is
Nice videos
When I get him, I'll just push his arms aside to form wings.
Hey brian I hate to be THAT guy but the grey piece that tabs the right arm flips out as an antenna
I always thought that it was a command frigate
I wanted the fucking lamp and I got the fucking lamp. My life is complete
Wait, instead of putting the shoulder cannon on that extra gun to form a hammer, put the other one on to the extra gun to form a shock spear.
To those how want a g1 lookalike soundwave figure but don’t want to pay like 1000 bucks or something like that for the masterpiece version then the transformers siege soundwave is the next best substitute for your g1 needs plus I think this is a awesome figure so what are you waiting for go to the store RIGHT NOW AND GET THIS FIGURE RIGHT NOW trust me it’s worth it 😎👍
Superior
2:00
Huh...somebody else realised that the hammer combination exists
I think a convention in Japan had it on display, that's where I first saw it
TFanPage101 I never saw that, I just realised both ends were 3mm port comparable and realised it would work as a hammer so that's how I've had my soundwave displayed since I got it
I just think of the grey gun as megatron
6:17 I gave it to siege Ironhide
0:44 how the fuck did they transform him wrong
Red lightpiping superior
Yellow lightpiping inferior
Like, I get it if peple like shockwave having yellow single eye, but soundwave?. Meeh looks very good anyway, but with red lightpiping , ohhh yea....
I don’t really like the finger, just because it’s meant to pull off one pose pretty much
Yea
The alt modes are terrible but I think they just didn't wanna reuse the same old alt modes.
The 4th my merican
Oh look loudred sb4 ?
Siege Soundwave superior, Titans Return Soundwave inferior.
Autobots,inferior
Soundwave,superior
BuY THe tHIrD PArtY upgrADE kiT
was that intro supposed to be cringe XD
How dare you good sir, this is cinema. You just appreciate the fine arts.
@@TFanPage101 the intros to your videos was funny tho
I found this figure average at best
SOUNDWAVE SUPERIOR, SPACESHIP INFERIOR
NOPE
