When you open the box and look at the inlay, your breath will stop for a few seconds. The first impression is great; purple inlay with a fantastic looking Soundwave, in a great golden paint job, peering back at you. Accompanied by 4 of his companions. The first impression is the most important one, you cant go back and change it and on that matter... they did great. Looking at the inside of the box, i want to take him out and see how good he really is. So... +1

Okay, i got him out of the box and stationed between Piranacon and the Autobot Arc and well he does claim your attention. Im not sure if its the classic G1 mold or the gold paint, but it does its job; getting your attention like a shy, beautifull girl. On that account... +1
Time to dive in and take a closer look. The transformation of the 4 companions is easy enough, part from the head of Ratbat but once you get the hang of it, its doesnt give any problems. Although posing Ravage is impossible without him leaning against Soundwave. I wont go in to details about transforming Soundwave himself since its the classic G1 mold and speaks for itself. So considering its made by an older mold i give it again a +1
So basiclly this is a great toy, although it wont fancy everyone. The gold paint and the Linkin Park factor have driven many fans away from it. So here it really drops a point -1
So why should you buy this, you might ask?
- If you dont have a classic or re-issue Soundwave
- If you like rare toys, its limited to 2000 worldwide
- If you like rare toys for cheap prices (check Ebay its really affordable)
- If you like shiny or gold
So there you have it. My thoughts about this toy and why i believe its worth it, no matter the negative comments about it. Let me know if you decide to buy one and what you think of the toy and/ or this review.
