First Look at Soundwave from ‘Transformers 2’

Empire has posted the first look at Soundwave (the action figure, anyway) from ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’.

Here he is in jet form:

…and here in robot form:

Of course, for those knowledgeable in all things ‘Transformers’, Soundwave was originally a Decepticon who transformed into a microcassette recorder. Â  Later, in the Transformers: Cybertron series, he transformed into a jet.

Early efforts to include Soundwave into the 2007 film had the Decepticon transforming into a helicopter. Â  Poor fan reaction made the filmmakers change the name of the helicopter-transforming robot to Blackout. Â  Soundwave was left out of the film altogether.

His new digs for ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ are pretty sweet. Â  Can’t wait to see some actual footage of him.
