Seems Soundwave is getting the HA treatment. Should be a seller. I'm assuming Dylan will be the figure since he is a bad guy.

Decided not to put character's name in title as some people might not be aware that Soundwave has a vehicle alt mode in the third movie.

Its probably best to omit Dylan's name here. Story spoilers should stay out of toy news, I say.

The word "spoilers" in the title should be warning enough to people before they look.

If story spoilers should be kept out of toy news then what about the fact that Soundwave is getting the HA treatment? Wouldn't that mean that his alt mode would be a car? Isn't that considered a spoiler?

Really looking forward to this - the SLS is a sexy looking car.

Isn't that considered a spoiler? Hard to say. The alt modes of TFs may be easily found out even if one were avoiding story-specific news because story stuff tend to be leaks, but toy news is generally official releases.

But granted, what Soundwave turns into as a toy could be considered a spoiler, especially if one happens to ignore the DOTM video game as well.

As long as there is *spoiler* in the title - everything else inside is fine. either people want to know (and so come in here to read) or be surprised (and should just stay away.)

its silly to ask Soundwave be revealed as a HA vehicle but hide who the human is.
that would be like Megatron is a truck! but we can't tell you its a Mack...

Posting is fine. Topics can have in them anything you want, provided it is clearly warned beforehand in the title and/or in the postings itself with adequate space before the spoiler is mentioned.
The main concern is the titles, which can be seen on topic listings around the board, and in the section itself (some people are only avoiding plot spoilers, not all movie news posts).

Looks like a Deluxe Soundwave (http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/412186-dotm-deluxe-soundwave-deluxe-luxury-car.html) is in the system now too...
