TRANSFORMERS G1 SOUNDWAVE “Reissue” KO Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2024
- In Transformers, G1 Soundwave is one of the most popular toys ever produced. And produced again. There have been numerous reissues, but the latest one left some people cold. This is a counterfeit reissue knockoff version of Generation One Soundwave, in box, and Captain Kyle examines it to see if it’s good enough to scratch your Decepticon Communicator itch.
Soundwave was introduced in the first wave of Transformers in 1984 and immediately became a fan favorite. His cool design coupled with a squad of awesome Decepticon cassettes he could deploy at will made him a must-have for fans of the line. Numerous reissues have sold out quickly through the years, but the Walmart 40th Anniversary edition left some collectors unhappy with the toy's lack of chrome, stickers, and plastic feel. Captain Kyle obtained a Generation One Soundwave “reissue” to review it for those who want a toy as close to the original as possible. And this one does not disappoint.
To get this toy, try:
Ali Express (same vendor Captain Kyle got his from): s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlT...
(This listing has a lot of G1 “Reissues” - Soundwave is the 10th selection)
eBay: ebay.us/7rl7jB
Despite appearances, this toy is not manufactured by Hasbro or Takara-Tomy. They will assume no liability regarding quality.

Got my G1 Soundwave secondhand as a kid. Always figured the weapons were missing until the battery cover was knocked loose one day, did not even know the cover could be removed until that happened
Me finding a G1 Soundwave that’s less than 50 dollars: *I WOULD HAVE WAITED AN ETERNITY FOR THIS!*
I just love how minty these are , like being in a time machine! :)
😊 Love your vids keep it going😊
Thanks! 😁
This is my all time fav toy & shockwave.
How are you ? Love your vids
I just got the empty box from Ebay for a few bucks for my shelf and it looks awesome! KO looks great btw.
Ok well this will go straight to my Soundwave mausoleum, yes Soudwave was always my fav G1 Decepticon...but living in a small town in Italy when I was a little kid I never found him (there was a nice toys shop with a lot of TF but no Soundwave, they were selling out Soundwaves like fresh bread here in Italy!) so, yeah he have a little nice nostalgic spot in my collection.
That's amazing, so nostalgic to see him sitting in the styrofoam with Buzzsaw, my favorite tape. His gold paint held up better than Laserbeak's red even though I used them the same amount. I had the rubsign version so it would be a perfect replica of mine. I thought your choice of a black and gold symbol for his chest looked fantastic with the deck cover having the tint and gold trim. Very nice!
Toy Spotitle - one of my most Treasured transformers is KABAYA - Takara Transformers Soundwave.
model kit .
he is all Blue , no paint w/ Different stickers.
he is about 1/3 the Size of G1 Soundwave.
has Molded tape door but has working "battery cover" for gun Storage.
this pairs nicely w/ my KABAYA Preceptor in Diaclone B+W.
BTW - I have "Lazerbeak" KABAYA kit as well , with ALT mode being Copper Meteor Ball. (from Takara Meteorman).
Interesting! They used the first design for the tape door. I got the 25th Anniversary version with a different hinge and buttons. My first one was a brand new IGA released in 88 or maybe 89?, which was identical to the pre-rub sign. I am noticing the paint on the KO Laserbeak is more yellowish than gold.
i hope to one day find a cassette man from japan
I watch a couple of G1 Soundwave KO video and its seem that this new version was release around 2020 have the door spring problem .Older KO from a couple years back dont have this problem !!!
Ik heb een van de eerste takara her uitgaven van Sound Wave.
Nieuw in de doos gesloten.
Met extra cassette
I wish these KO companies would produce more chromed parts, to sell separately. I'm tempted to get one of these, just for that cassette door, but it seems a bit of a waste.
I hate when its to tight for the holes ok some one had to say it and am just immature enough to do it plus was feeling left out . Thank you for another fun review is your cat ok didnt show on camera this time
Of course you had to say it. Lol. And Skye is fine. She just decided not to make an appearance.
My Soundwave just arrived from the same Ali seller yesterday. Box has a small dent, though it was packaged very well. Buzzsaw legs and head are SO tight that I really feel like it will break if apply any more force. Same thing on Soundwave with trying to bring the hands all the way out and with bending the arms at the elbows. Very disconcerting creaking noises when I apply force.
Mine was very stiff. Maybe a little WD40 on a paper towel. The joints should loosen up.
Use the WD40 Specialist Silicone Lubricant.
Which Ali seller are you guys using? So many and hard to decide who to buy from.
I put the link to the exact seller and listing in the description. But the joints are very tight. Be aware.
But when are they going to be in stores?
These aren't. You need to order from Ali Express.
I got a G1 Soundwave from Walmart 4-5 years ago. That's not the same one they are selling now, is it?
Not quite. Watch my Soundwave and Blaster 40th Anniversary video. You'll see.
The Takara stamp should show the difference I believe it's a little different then the real Takara stamp
or better be honest and not sell KOs as an original G1 toy.
Did you also get the Optimus G1, and if so, is it the same quality as Soundwave?
Are you referring to the Walmart reissue that didn't come with the trailer?
@@ToySpotlite No, the one from the same seller you got the Soundwave G1 KO. I have both in my cart right now lol, and I want to know if OP is as good as Soundwave in your opinion.
I got a Black Optimus Prime reissue. As I recall, the quality was good except the fists were a little loose when you attached them in robot mode. That may not be the case with all the Optimus reissues. If they are loose, some clear nail polish around the posts on the fists should take care of the looseness.
@@ToySpotlite lol, I already ordered it. I’m too impatient. Thanks for the reply and great job on your channel. I just subscribed.
LOL. Well, I hope you don't need the nail polish, but at least you know just in case. I just ordered some more G1 cars, so keep an eye out for those reviews. Thanks for subscribing!
What does KO mean?
Knock off. As in not produced by Hasbro or Takara-Tomy.
I really hope a KO G1 Megatron comes out. The official one is INCREDIBLY expensive and it's barely been reissued
That would be awesome. We can hope.
@@ToySpotlite fingers crossed, Kyle 🤞
You had a store??
Yes, in the early 2000's.
@@ToySpotlite just older than me
@@ToySpotlite where what was it called?
In Connecticut. Called Total Science Fiction.
i can't say it often enough, i hate these kinds of knockoffs that use original logos and names. If i buy this shit i would feel myself like a traitor.
I understand. However, given that some original G1s are either unlikely to be reissued again by Hasbro or not going to be reissued without modifications, I think these serve a purpose.
@@ToySpotlite and i understand this. the fact that it is being sold as an "original" bothers me. there should be as honest like APC toys with their TF:P KO´s.
Well, the sellers I buy from do identify them as KOs. But I do have concerns that people will try to pass them off as original. Which is one reason I point out the signs it's a KO. I would prefer more "honest" packaging and maybe a stamp on the figure to reveal it's not G1.
