I love soundwave, but even I have instant dislike of this.
I can't actually decide which part of him I hate the most.
The massive chest?
The undersized head and shoulder cannon?
The proportions just don't seem to be right
I see what they're going for, but unfortunately it's not quite up to par with my expectations.
As it's an unofficial, 3rd Party item, I am well aware that it could never be exact and that by the very nature of it's design certain limitations will have to be imposed - Not to mention this is a prototype.
I don't know?...
As Soundwave is my favourite G1 character I find myself in the mindset of a HasTakTom purist and thus consider the notion of a 3rd party Soundwave partly offensive but I know that would make me undeniably hypocritical as I have bought many a 3rd party rendition of a proprietary character before...
I guess I'll have to wait and see where this ends up going.

I find this pretty meh. The concept is sound but the way it was executed is not. The body proportions are really bad even for Soundwave and the sculpt is a little ugly.
Nice idea and I want a classicsverse style Soundwave too, but this is definitely not it.
Now that Hasbro has done Rumble/Frenzy tanks I wish someone (preferably Hasbro) would give us a new vehicular Soundwave. I know a lot of people use the music label one, or Hasbro's re released classic G1 one, but they are too G1 style for me and just don't fit in.
Anyway everyones already pointed out the flaws of this toy, you can't fault them for trying but I wish they would have picked a character who doesn't already have a bunch of toys in his likeness.
This figure has so much promise, but since I have bought the Music Label one, I am trying to justify why on earth you would buy this?
I think the music label would be better if it could fit the Ravage cassette (from Hound) in it, but seriously, its still great.
As much as i love Soundwave (who doesn't?) this is a miss for me. As previously stated the proportions are all wrong. This is only a prototype though so for now I'll sit back and play the waiting game.
ohhh. I had such high hopes for this guy.
he looks like he's wearing ugly Stilettos.
2 points for trying but I think ill pass
Pre-order for this guy is up at RK for $50... not bad pricing..
