    i bet ravage will have some crazy cool animation behind him regardless the movie sucks or not

    the way that "sound" and "music" have changed in the last 20 years, I supposed well have to "live" with this.

    I only sort of recognize the head and can imagine some kind of sonic wave weapon that he'll have like we can use to now quell crowds with sonic tones and the like. Imagine the thunderous stereos in the tiny cars nowadays but as a booming sonic weapon. Ha!

    I'm way willing to see what they're going to throw at us. I imagine were I to show my 5 year old a cassette she'd wonder what the ribbon is for? Wrapping presents or something? Snort.

    I can live with this. Sure, Soundwave was a boombox but you can't have that today...it would be too corny.

    If ever there was a franchise that could ride the rails of time travel to somehow incorporate the cassette player, I'd have figured that the Transformers universe would be it, eh?

    Ravage looks pretty dope... Soundwave... I don't like all these wing-like appendages they're putting on the robots. I like the more humanesque bodies of the cartoon versions. C'est la vie...

    @ Kahless

    Dude what is wrong with SOundwave as a boombox..C'mon that would translate great onto the big screen with THX sound..

    Ok so now Soundwave will transform into a jetlike form, sort of like Megatron in the first movie. To bad they couldn't make Soundwave Transform into multiple forms, oh well. I wish Frenzy was in the Transformers 2,but I guess we cant have both Ravage and Frenzy. to bad. Frenzy was cool. I think the new look of Soundwave will be ok. The movie will be a action-packed popcorn blast, just what we all want and need for the summer time. June 26th, 2009

    Well you can't have Soundawave to be a boombox and he is a communications expert.

    So the satellite mode fits him fine.

    Do note that its his cybertronian mode and his earth mode is not known. In G1 each ones cybertronian mode was diff from earth mode.

    Ravage looks menacing


    At the side of him is the tank mode of MEGATRON

    I don't like his look. I thought the helicopter from the first movie looked more like soundwave. Hopefully this isn't the final version. It looks way too busy. Ravage looks ok.
  • GROmeanT · 11 months ago
    These made me think of Japanese design, which I hate extremely.
  • Jess H. · 11 months ago
    Soundwave looks ok but im really digging Ravage. He looks way awesome!
  • Joshua locklear · 11 months ago
    The movie is going to be epic.
  • John "Kahless" Taylor · 11 months ago
    Joshua, I would agree with you if Bay didn't direct the actors. When it comes to action and effects, Bay is the man but when it comes to directing actors, he must belong to the same club as George Lucas and William Shatner. :-)

    Cool. Yes, but have you seen the new "Twins" pic in full robot mode! Sweet. Check it out here. Enjoy.

    I'm hip to it. Ravage rocks
  • Rob Keyes · 11 months ago
    @ The Rake,

    thanks for the link - I'll look around the net and maybe do a post on new pics of the twins.
  • dannyboy · 11 months ago
    The toy is allready out for soundwave, seen it on youtube, and it looks just like the picture does, but there is no nostalgia feeling here for me! Michael Bay is the American version of UWE BOLL.... His way or nothing, and the fans will pay..... C'mon by changing the toys, they will make more money from the fans, no matter how much they rip off the bionicle molds.......... And yes I will be there on opening day!~ even if it's just for Megan Fox!!!!
  • funghoul · 10 months ago
    it would look retarded to have the same design as 1984. you gotta have the same voice or at least a new version very similar. the biggest disappointment is starscream i think. its a really annoying look. cant wait to see how bad they butcher cobra commander. chris latta's a rollin around down there.
