finally they learned a lesson from the first movie - do whatever the heck you wish with the bodies and alt modes, but make the heads and faces instantaneously recognizable to fans, pleasing everybody - just like on movie Optimus.
I loved the first movie's aesthetics and will likely be buying a lot of the toys - at least to complete the ROTF cast. soundwave looks promising (even though i usually don't like "protoforms" or cybertronian modes).

Well it would surprise me a little if they did protoforms for the first movie and not the s3econd or third besides that with the fan base that Soundwave has that he would be made into one of the Protoform Figures. My question wouyld be who would be the Autobot Protoform?

My guess would be "Sideswipe" or whoever the Corvette is. I think that would be effective. Two G1 names to draw in that fan base, and two new movie bots for kids to beg their parents for.
And Megatron Wolf...I love your optimism...

Ugh, I guess I'll reword that. I'm not irritated by spoilers. I'm irritated to fan responses to spoilers. For goodness sake, everyone chill!

Was that an arm? A shoulder cannon?

As i see thing it would be cool For him to be something like a military Special,l weapons sound cannon truck thing but like what we where seeing in the Beginning. But i feel that the Satellite and Sports truck are a bit far fetch. Many people will hate e for thins but Making Soundwave have one of these alt. mode would make him almost Useless.
Yes and Remember Between Optimism and Pessimism there is always a meniscus.

Is he a satelite? doesn't even look much like that. Maybe I'm overthinking things here, but if this is genuine, this is a MAJOR info leak from somebody very heavily involved in the project. Or a janitor who stole it. Either way, heads should be rolling right about now.
If it is a major Leak or not Hasbro Has not been showing the love much as of recently. True some major transformers have come out in the Classics lines but in retrospect im tired of the seemingly endless line of repaints that they shove at use acspecting us to rush out and get it. when i can get a (EXAMPLE) Bumblebee and paint it red and call it cliffjumper. at least then i can give it a little more Pizazz. in all honesty i feel that the movie lines offer a wider selection of new ideas. By Leaking this info i feel both betrayed and Excited. It lookes awesome as a protoform. But if this truely is his main movie altmode... Im sure that word will be dulled out amongst the fans. as for the rolling of heads EWWWWW..!

These things happened before the first movie, basically it is Hasbro testing the reaction to the products before releasing them into the market. We are beta testers for them.
Anyways, my opinion: i like the head. I like the blue orbs. However Soundwave is a blocky transformer. Those claws and kibble don't help to recreate the original look.
I'm not sure yet. I'd probably buy it, but i wouldn't put it on top of the list.

I don't want to know how he looks, but I do want to see the news (without spoiler screenshots).
I'm probably the only one, but still :s
