it shame that takara/hasbro new transformers figure transformation has dwindling down to a no brainner overly simplified transformation. i miss the transformation of this kind of magnitude but thankfully most 3rd party transformers figure had this kind or more transformation magnitude
This figure is incredibly fiddly. The car mode looks great and the robot mode looks pretty good as well. The tripod feet are kinda odd. Overall Not a bad looking bot.
you've made the transformation look easy. awesome job, man. i can't believe that half the car is just his arms. can't wait to get one for myself. maybe just the hasbro version. this thing is too pricey for me
its a glorius figure! thns for doing this review, really....can i ask a cuestion? do you know when this is gona come out in america? i am from mexico, and HA don get here, but some selers do sell them little time after they come out on US.... thnks you!
I'm still mad that hasbro didn't have this and the deluxe figure. I'm also mad that hasbro didn't get the deluxe leadfoot. And I'm also mad that road buster (deluxe class) wasn't armored and that the human alliance leadfoot wasn't armored either.
@whiteknyte2001 not sure yet. the only information i was able to scoop was that it will be released at december 11 and will be sold at all retail stores.
I noticed on ebay there are now selling human alliance soundwave with chinese writing on the front just below the 'Human Alliance' writing. The sellers are from China. Please can anyone tell me if these are fakes and if not, are they the same quality as Hasbro?
@Cockonduty I just ordered HA Soundwave for 30, free shipping, which considering the prices going up for this guy, is wonderful. I, never was a fan of HA Bumblebee. The vehicle mode looks nice but the robot mode bugs me a little, he looks a little bulky and a cannon-only hand is a drawback for me. I don't know, maybe I just don't want a mini Shia LeBoeuf looking at me with dead, dead eyes.
this makes me think of that Barricade toy from the Transformers 07 toy line with Frenzy and the punching arm gimmick (i do not know what size it is). the overall look of Soundwave makes me think of the 07 character, with the top heavy body, similar arm transformation, and head transformation.
hey baltmatrix big fan but anyway i have a question does soundwave cost alot? and wat did u mean "u dont put the human alliance figure in the car because u like the doors closed?" just really wondering
isnt the vehicle mode the same size as HA Jazz? its a shame that the legs are so tiny and bad looking but the rest of the figure is amazing i might get this if it comes here at retail
2:28 - I don't mean to nitpick on this, but you said that this was "Soundwave's Cannon Mode." Is that what it is called, or is it Laserbeak's Cannon Mode?
Laserbeak turning into a gun for Soundwave almost feels like a Actionmaster Wingthing homage. I wonder if that was in the toy designer's mind at the time.
He is out of stocks for my guess sold units are %99 and take a look at AliExpress that a site carries only awesome condition of KOs or officials by some people.
Thats what I'm saying. Hasbro is focusing alot on Bee. When the DOTM toyline strted coming to a close the entire Transformers toy area in the toy aise a t Walmart, Kmart, Target and Toys R Us was just FULL of Bumblebees!!!
That transformation is a lot like Barricade's... Back section becomes legs, front section is the chest, the sides of the car are the arms...But I love HA Barricade so it bothers me not.
@maxor158 I´ve never had a bumblebee figure(I´ve always wanted to have a human alliance bumblebee) so the price was perfect considering that I got HA BB AND HA Soundwave. Btw The humans soundwave comes with looks terrible as well.
The color doesn't seem as bad as what we had originally seen. At least it doesn't seem as bad as Dotm deluxe Sideswipe's paintjob. I really wish they would've given him a translucent visor like they did with Jazz. The paintjob seems kind of cheap on the face. I don't really like the Laserbeak it comes with also. I'll probably be replacing it with the deluxe Laserbeak when I display them together.
Why can't I find any of these cool new human alliance figures in toys r us or walmart? All I can find is a dozen different repaints of fricken Bumblebee.
Ughh, why Hasbro? I thought this degradation of silver paint to dull gray plastic is only limited to DOTM Sideswipe,, The engineering is undeniably delicious, though :3 I'm amazed on how the barely stumpy legs unfold themselves from the hood section alone. For certain reason, he sorta just screaming HA Barricade (which is one of my top fave TF figures) due to the sidecar-to-arms transformation and the open-close mouth gimmick.
I'm hoping to get this dude for Christmas... as a HA fan and a Soundwave fan this could be what I want. :D
i just noticed that he is one of the few decepticons that doesnt have chicken feet
it shame that takara/hasbro new transformers figure transformation has dwindling down to a no brainner overly simplified transformation. i miss the transformation of this kind of magnitude but thankfully most 3rd party transformers figure had this kind or more transformation magnitude
And then Studio Series came and gave us complex figures
THAT IS AWSOME I LOVE IT
I have this Soundwave figure, from Dark of the Moon. He's extremely complicated, but looks great
@Teeheehee093 I think the fact that Laserbeak was included may explain its size. T'was the same for Cyberverse Blackout w/ Scorponok.
This figure is incredibly fiddly. The car mode looks great and the robot mode looks pretty good as well. The tripod feet are kinda odd. Overall Not a bad looking bot.
That car is a sls not a slk
@baltmatrix when does the U.S. retail come out
I forgot the actor on the box was in Grey's Anatomy
@wildjack64 HA's normal cost 30 or so USD. The doors are hard to open/close so most people dont open them
WE WANT TURTLE WAX , either way ( despite it's problems ) it's pretty dope none the less , keep'em coming man !!!
you've made the transformation look easy. awesome job, man.
i can't believe that half the car is just his arms. can't wait to get one for myself. maybe just the hasbro version. this thing is too pricey for me
The way you had him posed in robot mode on the display rotator at the end reminded me of a destroyer droid.
its a glorius figure! thns for doing this review, really....can i ask a cuestion? do you know when this is gona come out in america? i am from mexico, and HA don get here, but some selers do sell them little time after they come out on US....
thnks you!

You're good at explaining what you're doing
What about a size comparison in Robot Mode with other HA figures?
@whiteknyte2001 not sure yet. the only information i was able to scoop was that it will be released at december 11 and will be sold at all retail stores.
The packaging reminds me of Takara's Microman line. Then again, Transformers were originally spun off from Microman in Japan by Takara.
lol, like how you threw that meme in there, very nice.
i love ur vids!!!!
The legs looks extremely weird
I noticed on ebay there are now selling human alliance soundwave with chinese writing on the front just below the 'Human Alliance' writing. The sellers are from China. Please can anyone tell me if these are fakes and if not, are they the same quality as Hasbro?
When the (Expletive Deleted) is the Hasbro version coming out? I want him SO bad!
for the love of all thing good right and humanly descent where did you buy this please tell
Im just mentioning, you called laser beak, soundwave, just saying
Bye
For now
@whiteknyte2001 his estimated release date would probably be december 11 in retail stores. not official yet.
Holy Hell man, what is that shirt your wearing! ;D
Nice review though :-)
just how tall is the robot mode in comparison to a Voyager Class Starscream (ROTF or DOTM) or Shockwave?
is spraying it with clear coat an option for the vehicle mode
i recently heard that later this year, he'll be released in the US!

"Soundwave's cannon mode"
you had ONE JOBBBB
can you fit mechtech laserbeak on his arm?
@roxasgladiator005 what toy are you talking about?
7:24 soundwave after a major car crash
What is the difference between Takara version and the original one?
hey baltmatrix big fan but anyway i have a question does soundwave cost alot? and wat did u mean "u dont put the human alliance figure in the car because u like the doors closed?" just really wondering
@cheezysalt456 because the dotm line got cancelled. and i think he was in 1 of the latter waves
I really need to get a rotating display table...I didn't think I needed one until now.
#TerorTurkey that is GOLDEN!
awesome dude!!!!!!!!!!!!
to my discredit this is currently the only design of soundwave i dont own a figure for
isnt the vehicle mode the same size as HA Jazz?
its a shame that the legs are so tiny and bad looking but the rest of the figure is amazing i might get this if it comes here at retail
Where did you get that spinning mechanism?
the combination of Dark blue and Allspark blue reminds me alot of Animated Soundwave ( my favorite Soundwave with a Vehicle alt. mode )
@maxor158 Got human alliance soundwave AND human alliance bumblebee for 39 dollars. Love the price , loves the figures even more.
@MrJazzMan88 it was a mistake lol. He called it a SLS in the beginning of the video
really terror turkey ohh that made me laugh
2:28 - I don't mean to nitpick on this, but you said that this was "Soundwave's Cannon Mode." Is that what it is called, or is it Laserbeak's Cannon Mode?
Size next to barricade plz
i can't wait till deluxe dotm soundwave comes out.
Laserbeak turning into a gun for Soundwave almost feels like a Actionmaster Wingthing homage. I wonder if that was in the toy designer's mind at the time.
Wow this is one of the most complicated transformation I've seen
Where the f**k can I get one I've been waiting for months when is he going to be released?
i don't think you can beat the g1 figure but i will probably pick up the normal version of this figure. nice review.
DUDE where'd you order that?!
Got him for Christmas :D
how much was it?
how could is feet do only that small part in vehicle mode!?! its so tinyyyyyyyyy omg
Can someone please tell me why this damn figure has never come out in the U.S. yet. :(
Why was this review in two random portions.
@Toydude1984 the cgi one dosent even look like this, in the movie he is way thiner and has bigger feet.
I got a human alliance Roadbuster, and it took a long time to transform.
Also i wish his head gimmick was he had the face with two eyes like in the movie and then a flip down visor which looks like the one eye
Is he out in stores yet?
He is out of stocks for my guess sold units are %99 and take a look at AliExpress that a site carries only awesome condition of KOs or officials by some people.
what do you mean by hair raising
uuummmmmm....... Gloriously top heavy.......
its the ko version a good quality?
Yes
Thats what i heard
why use Dempsey's name from call of duty black ops and world at war
@mrUnclejackass Sadly, he will not get a US release. If you want him, find a "reasonable" priced one on eBay.
@Teeheehee093 I like the legs. They don't look entirely bad
2nd decepticon human alliance?
all that back kibble, the weird shoulders, and those stilt feet made this a no-go for me, but I thought the ROTF Deluxe Soundwave was pretty amazing
in 2.27 not soundwaves cannon mode laserbeaks cannon mode.
Thats what I'm saying. Hasbro is focusing alot on Bee. When the DOTM toyline strted coming to a close the entire Transformers toy area in the toy aise a t Walmart, Kmart, Target and Toys R Us was just FULL of Bumblebees!!!
that hapened cuz when a new toyline came out for each movie, kids would alreready have the figures. so thats y dark of the moon toy line plumited.
That transformation is a lot like Barricade's...
Back section becomes legs, front section is the chest, the sides of the car are the arms...But I love HA Barricade so it bothers me not.
@BryceC2000 well they are, i think the best sound wave toy is the legends.
@maxor158 I´ve never had a bumblebee figure(I´ve always wanted to have a human alliance bumblebee) so the price was perfect considering that I got HA BB AND HA Soundwave. Btw The humans soundwave comes with looks terrible as well.
I thought this toy never got released?
in the movie Laserbeak has red eyes and blue lights on the wings= Decepticon
in the toy he has blue eyes and red lights on the wings=Autobot?!
He looks awesome to me. Soundwave Superior.
6:10: That would be Gundam 00's Regnan'ts Mobile Armor mode.
@07primex you didnt have to put it like that dude
Ooohhhh! The reason the plate says superior is because SOUNDWAVE SUPERIOR AUTOBOTS INFERIOR!
And then it NEVER came out in the US...
Otto von Doom it did
Yes more bionicle transformer fans!
Lots of them got made in the US retailers just didn't buy them. You can get one on eBay for kind of cheap. Like 30 to 50 bucks
The color doesn't seem as bad as what we had originally seen. At least it doesn't seem as bad as Dotm deluxe Sideswipe's paintjob.
I really wish they would've given him a translucent visor like they did with Jazz. The paintjob seems kind of cheap on the face.

Why can't I find any of these cool new human alliance figures in toys r us or walmart? All I can find is a dozen different repaints of fricken Bumblebee.
didjargo yeah. At walmart, when I searched the studio series, all I found was bumblebee and Crankcase toys!
I REALLY WANT THIS!!! DONT KNOW WHY!!!
$15 at T.J. Maxx sounds GREAT for this guy!
anyone knows why he has pegs on his left hand?
Markus Kaine So that Laserbeak can peg into his hand.
Its so hard to find transformer toys at Singapore...
I just noticed the number plate and cracked up.
Oh, thank god.
Ughh, why Hasbro? I thought this degradation of silver paint to dull gray plastic is only limited to DOTM Sideswipe,,

freaking cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or a vehicle concept from Tron
