Deluxe Bumblebee, Soundwave Bios

TFW2005 has posted a gallery of images that show off Deluxe class Bumblebee and Soundwave in their packaging and with them the two characters bio for Transformers 2. Of the bios read so far, Soundwave's is the most sinister. Below are the bio images and the full gallery can be found here. In addition, click here to view the instruction sheets for the Bumblebee and Leader class Optimus Prime toys. Thanks to Cenjor for the links.

Soundwave Bio:
Stationed in orbit above Earth, Soundwave swiftly taps into every satellite in range. Within minutes, communications, data traffic, weather information, and high-resolution spy photography flood his sensor net. The spill of data fills him with pleasure, and one by one, the humans' systems come under his complete control. From his seat on high, he is in a position to control the destiny of mankind without their knowledge...or to run their civilization into the ground.
Bumblebee Bio:
Having chosen to stay with Sam after the end of the battle for the AllSpark, Bumblebee made arrangements to stay close to hm at all times. It's been a pretty good deal. He gets regular detailing, and as much high-grade fuel as he needs. Plus, he gets to spend time with Sam and Mikaela. His vocal processors still aren't fully up to snuff, but he and his friends communicate just fine. IF he ever misses the action of battle, he can always give Ironhide a call and go Decepticon hunting.

  1. I still think he's going to come down to Earth in truck form.

  2. Theory Time:

    If this toy is 'movie accurate' I firmly believe that the three BLUE circles on his chest are compartments---for what you ask??

    3 compartments that house Ravage, Lazerbeak & Rumble :)

    What an image it would be to look at SW in a close-up and see his minions in a clear compartment ready to 'eject' AWESOME!!

  11. ^^^^^Anonymus@1:37.....

    i'm diggin the idea of the "minions" compartments..keeping the G1 theme in large part with a little twist....nice...

    ReplyDelete
  12. ^^Thanks---I watched the review of the SW toy and it just HIT ME

    If he's going to have them anyway why not be able to see them past the glass on his chest--I mean how cool would that be to Laserbeak 'ready for flight' trying to 'eject'

    I HOPE someone from ILM reads this :)

  15. I like Bumblebee's bio. It's cute. Soundwave's sounds like some innuendo.

    In Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Movie Prequel: Alliance #2 Bumblebee was hit with a missile attack by Starscream and his vocal processor was damaged again.

    Lastly, the Ravage you see in trailer comes from Soundwave's rocket.

  19. "Comes from SW's Rocket"--couldn't be more boring.

    That guy who had the compartment thing-a-majig may have the right idea. I doubt that's how it will really turn out but at least it's thinking outside the box--or compartments if you will :)

  20. Soundwave is still probably my most favorite bayformer design. I hope Frank Welker gets the voice and he sounds G1.

  21. I hope Soundwave swallows, Megatron spits and im getting a lil sick of it.

  22. Responding to "natalie"

    Your Destination blog is cool however because i am not offically signed up to any blogs it wont let me post as i also dont have a google account is there anyway of allowing a optional system like the one in this blog? Also if possible could you please do a post selection thing as i dont want to search through the entire blogs posts to see if there is anything i like or want to comment on.

    About the topic . . . Bumblee bees head ruins it for me and it seems the gun may be attatched to his hand which is a real shame. Although i still want soundwave to be some kind of sound system i believe bay has done a good job on soundwave although i am not entirely sure whether we will see him on earth as in the trailer he is firing fireballs down from the sky (Or is that part of the fallens plan?) I still dont truely see why they labeled him as a triple changer because all the modes are basicly the same. However i am okay with a triple changer aslong as we dont pay anymore than a normal price for a deluxe class transformers.

  23. Yeah, but the Alliance comic is supposed to be canon?

  24. Scorpio are you serious? you are trying to respond to a spambot?

  25. What type of Medic is Ratchet if he can't even fix a friggin Vocal Processor? He can fix Bumblebee after he was broken into two and draged behind a tow truck, but he can't fix a vocal processor after it is damaged.

    And if he talks like he did in TF1 because during a fight it got damaged AGAIN, then he must be even more annoying than Wheelie for everyone to be going after his Vocal Processor.

    And what is this about "as much high-grade fuel as he needs", I have never thought that the TF's needed fuel, energon yes, but fuel???

  26. ^^^ BB's been drowning his sorrows in supreme ever since Jazz got torn in half. Poor, drunk bastard...

  27. ratchet the medic is now desert tracker ratchet! Or maybe theres some other reason he hasnt fixed bumblebee

  28. "I have never thought that the TF's needed fuel, energon yes, but fuel???"

    As far as we know there could be no energon in this continuity and they have to rely on whatever combustible liquid they can get their hands on.

  30. I don't care how much pleasure he gets from Earth's data...If Soundwave stays in orbit and does not come down to earth to kick some ass....I am going to be PISSSSEDDDDD!!!!!

    Do you really belive, that they would put him in the movie, just to do NOTHING...?

    ReplyDelete
  32. i hope there are more transformers for us to see in the film like cliff jumper wheeljack hotrod etc.... i wonder how it will be left as bay has said he would do the third!!!

    oh and on another issue.... i no the decepticons have had all the new transformers and every one is worryed about how the autobots can cope well if it goes on the cartoon jetfire is massif compaired to megatron and prime so once he converts into prime fire with optamis well he will be up there with the constuctacon!!!!! ive not nearly spelt that right sorry but youll get the idea!!! peace

    ReplyDelete
  33. Damn spambots......getting so real nowadays...

    As for soundwave....after the HUGE tidal wave of shit that Bay got for TF1 pre-production artwork, designs, and whatnot....
    AND for Megs getting like 8 minutes of NON ICECUBE action...then getting wasted..............i REALLY dont think he'd
    "tinker" too much with soundwave....
    He knows how "big" of a character in the transformers universe soundwave is....

    Then again...we havent had any confirmation as far as Soundwave's voice goes soooooooo....ya never know....Bay might just use his own voice behind a "Soundwave Synthesiser" just to fuck with us all......go figure!!!

    I wouldn't doubt it. TFW2005 recently had an interview with Frank Welker in which Welker told them he hasn't been contacted by Revenge of the Fallen movie staff. Trust me, I LOVE the movie design of Soundwave and even if Welker isn't voicing him, he should definitely ATLEAST have a mechanical voice. Not trying to sound all Geewunner here but he's the ONE character I don't want them to mess up.

  35. Have you ever noticed how barricade just disappeared in the movie? i think he may have turned into sideways. I'll have to find out when a bio comes out for him. I also they come out with another soundwave toy with an earth mode. The sattelite/space cruiser thing is a little strange. AND WHERE ARE SOME DECENT PICTURES OF JOLT?!?!

    ReplyDelete
  36. I hope megs dies quickly again in this movie cause I would hate to have to look at his design for more than a few minutes. Gawd Bay, whats wrong with you?

    It is supposed to be but IDW is at the mercy of script changes. And they dont get a working copy of the script beforehand either.



    "Anonymous said...

    In Reign of Starscream they showed that Ironhide rammed Barricade into an overpass support during the freeway chase. Starscream found him and told him to continue to recon on the Autobot. That was the last time he was seen in any IDW movieverse comic

  38. Welker will be doing the voice...He is just a better liar than Bay is

  40. Have you read Marvel TF comics?

    No, I haven't...

    "As far as we know there could be no energon in this continuity and they have to rely on whatever combustible liquid they can get their hands on."

    Ok, but on that, true there could be no energon in this continuity, but I also don't recall any of the TF stopping by a gas station to fuel up in TF1.

    But, aren't the TF's in this continuity not just Mecanical, but also Biological? Didn't the blonde computer geek girl discover this when she said no computer on earth could have done what Frenzy or Blackout did when they were downloading data? I would go with them having thier own power generation supply rather than them needing fuel.

  41. I realized now after looking at pictures of Bumblebee's face what bugs me about him.

    His "mouth" looks like it is a S&M Mouth Gag.

  42. @v1p3rS

    like those combo pics of prime n jetfire.... another interesting thing about the "jet prime" pic are the fiery glowing cybertronian symbols on the blade arms.... seems a cool confirmation of jetfire being the egyptian lookin thing that the retards keep calling "the fallen" ..the egyptian look being his cybertronian form before scanning the sr-71....very cool
