Generations War for Cybertron Soundwave Pictorial Review
I wasn't sure whether I was gonna get him but once I saw him in the store packaged in robot mode, I couldn't resist.
I have more pics of him in vehicle mode here simply because he is packaged in robot mode and most people have already seen what that looks like in package.
so IMHO...
The alt mode:
I have to say I find the vehicle somewhat lacking in "cool factor" or a bit bland (someone who has the game please tell me what kind of vehicle is he supposed to be... obviously cybertronian...). The top and rear parts of the vehicle could definitely use more paint apps to make it more interesting.
Transformation:
It was pretty straight forward...not overly imaginative. The joints are fairly good and parts fit together well.
Robot Mode:
This IS the reason to get this figure. Love the head sculpt. Decent posability. Love the G1-ish look and feel. Cool and a bit menacing. I really dig the robot mode.
I paid full TRU price for Soundwave as he's not out in my local Walmarts yet. I would definitely recommend getting him if you can find him at Walmart rolled back price. But if you are like me who loves the bot mode, or if you love Soundwave period, then I would say he's a good addition even at full retail.
