MP-13.
And hopefully he'll come with at least a Ravage, Laserbeak/Buzzsaw and Rumble/Frenzy.

He must come with Wingthing, the forgotten Soundwave companion!

I hereby predict Laserbeak, and Buzzsaw with the inevitable Soundblaster repaint. They've done USB Ravage and headphone Rumble and Frenzy (and the TF United twin-pack). Laserbeak can hang out on his shoulder, sit on MP Megatron's arm... it's about time he got some love.

Laserbeak is an absolute MUST. Soundwave isn't complete without him.
I'm so over the moon about this, Masterpiece Soundwave has been top of my wants list for freakin' years. Can't wait to see some pics.

Hopefully the tapes will be sold separately. Really there are far too many to only package them with variants of Soundwave, though as a money making exercise I can imagine Takara doing exactly that. Soundwave Soundblaster Marvel comics Soundwave Music Label Soundwave each with different tapes.  Some 2 packs at £30-40 though would rule. |

Should Soundwave be a working radio? The other MP line all roll or [if you throw the jet] fly. Not covering Megatron here.

A working radio...? Well, if he has a USB port so he can play MP3's as well that'd make him a bit more of a 'need'.

The only way MP-13 is going to be truly epic is if the alt mode is 1/50th the size of the robot mode.

Like Grimlock, Soundwave is one of those near-perfect moulds from back in the day. Similarly, I hope this is done just like the MP Grimlock: just add some articulation, upscale and you're done.

Laserbeak is an absolute MUST. Soundwave isn't complete without him. BUZZSAW is a must with Soundwave. Soundwave comes with Buzzsaw. The book-style Soundwave reissue came with Laserbeak, who is more commonly associated with Soundwave while Buzzsaw was rarely seen in any media. Lazy is the more likely candidate for a figure aimed at the wider market. -Nick |

Features they must have in Soundwave
sound chip with transforming noise - Armada/Energon Ultra Magnus has one.
Flip open cassette door like the original - but are they going to use cassette? I expect they are with keeping the toy G1.
Also the cassette door should amke a noise when you press it to open. They don't make much of a noise but if you try ejecting a cassette you do hear the release of the button & the cog the door is on. It doesn't need to be a sound chip - it should be the toy itself. There should be a spring in the door switch.

Hope is never silly, often disappointed, but never silly.
I too am disappointed, but not for that reason. I wanted the the cassette to be called "Condor", as is right and proper for a Japanese Soundwave release.

Laserbeak is fantastic! Thrusters as part of the transformation!
Oh, Soundwave's in the picture, too.

Agree with you Nigel, I was going to mention that too about the thrusters/weapons!
Disappointed there's only one tape so far. Surely there shall be at least one more?

Glad to see they've went the MP Grimlock route: ie. a subtle update of the original still-decent toy.

Every Mp other than Megatron has had a release in the West. I'll wait until the £60 one turns up in TRU in a year or so.
