- Soundwave (Deluxe, 2009)
- Soundwave has a two alt modes in addition to his humanoid mode: satellite and alien jet. He has a firing projectile known as the "Ravage Missile".
Behind the scenes
- Soundwave was originally supposed to feature in Transformers: he fulfilled both Barricade and Frenzy's roles, hacking into the CIA headquarters as a portable stereo, then morphed into a Humvee to track down Sam Witwicky.[1] Michael Bay's decision to minimalize the amount of morphing in the film resulted in a change to a helicopter who openly attacks the army. Soundwave and Ravage were changed to Blackout and Scorponok as the film's location was changed from a jungle to a desert.[2][3] Hasbro had also insisted on Soundwave having a musical mode, so he was changed to the character eventually known as Frenzy, to the extent that he had to be renamed.
Trivia
- No vocoder is used to simulate the Classic Soundwave voice for the movie, thus making him sound like Dr.Claw. This is corrected in the Videogames.
- Soundwave stays in orbit above Earth, in satatilite mode, for the whole movie.
