thread_title: I've said this before!!

message: Quote Transformers: Generation 1 (1984) "in the tape compartment, which becomes his chest in robot mode, he stores the Decepticon spy cassettes Ravage, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, Ratbat, Rumble, and Frenzy, who seem to exist in a quasi-symbiotic relationship with him."
In the US Transformers G1 animated series Soundwave is partnered with Ravage, Laserbeak, Ratbat, Rumble, Frenzy and Buzzsaw. Just because Frenzy and Ratbat were not packaged with the Action Master or Universe Soundwave toy does not mean they are not partnered with him.  All not packaged with means is you couldn’t get them in the same box as Soundwave.
user:Gun Ship
They worked together like any other two decepticons - Runamuch and Runabout, etc. user:mathewignash
mathewignash I will be posting on the talk page proof that they are partnered with Soundwave.

message: What is the source of the information about Soundwave's face being the inspiration for the Decepticon logo? I'm not saying it's untrue, but I've never heard it before. The connection seems a little strained to me, but if a reliable source is produced I'll be fine with it.--Sean|Black 22:53, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Some people I know call him "The Jar-Jar Binks of Transformers". Is it because he has such a laughable 
alt form?
:That sounds pretty groundless. Soundwave is definitely one of the best remembered of the Decepticons.--MrDopple 21:48, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The people that you know are in the minority. Soundwave is by far the most popular transformer. Rivalling Prime and Megatron.

message: I type in soundwave and it goes to the sound article.  Can someone make it so it doesn't force one straight to the sound article?  I had to type soundwave (transformer) to find this page.Desertmonk 00:20, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  soundwave redirects to sound? 

message: It suggest in the animated storyline for Soundwave that it is speculated he may have looked for a way to reverse Galvatron's creation so that he would be Megatron again. Sounds more like a fan fiction piece to me. Could that be sourced from somewhere, otherwise it's just nonsense as nothing happened in the series to suggest that.

thread_title:  You tube link removal 

message: Currently, Soundwave is a redirect to Soundwave (Transformers), while sound wave is a redirect to sound. Personally, I dislike redirects from XXX to XXX (YYY). The main article should be either a real article or a disambiguation page, not a redirect. However, there is the confusion between the name spelled together or separated. Therefore I propose moving this back to Soundwave and adding disambiguation notices to both pages:
:This article is about the Transformers character. For real-life sound waves, see sound.
:"Sound wave" redirects here. For the Transformers character, see Soundwave.

message: Removed this piece about the TFA toy: Unlike most of the "Transformers Animated" line-up of toys, the Deluxe-class Soundwave does not have an Auto-conversion feature.  In terms of size, he definitely in scale with Voyager-class Bulkhead, like how in the show Soundwave was nearly as tall as Bulkhead. Auto-conversion is not something seen across the majority of the line, especially at the Deluxe price point. The scale comparison with Bulkhead also seems a little subjective.

thread_title:  Should the toys of Soundwave be on a separate page? 

message: The subsection for the Cyberverse iteration of Soundwave appears to be missing a large amount of information and is primarily just a stub. It would be ideal if we could add more information about him as well as his expanded, more heroic role during seasons three and four of the animated series. I'll begin adding some information myself, but my knowledge of Cyberverse is somewhat limited.  Zarrmageddon (talk) 12:36, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
