LEGO Transformers enters its villain era with fan-favorite Soundwave, complete with sound functions, Ravage, and Laserbeak [News]

When LEGO revealed a fully-transformable Optimus Prime based on the Gen 1 toy, we were blown away by the accuracy, build quality, and play features. (If you haven’t picked up this essential build, Optimus Prime is still available for a few more months.) LEGO’s second Transformer build, Bumblebee, was more of a mixed bag with an awkward robot mode and weird scale. On August 1, a third Cybertron exile is headed to stores – the fan-favorite Decepticon Soundwave – and based on the pictures and details shared by LEGO, this set looks like it could be the best Transformers set yet. LEGO Icons 10358 Transformers: Soundwave contains 1,505 pieces and includes companions Laserbeak and Ravage, who can transform into cassettes and be stored inside their master until it’s time to eject. And as a rare treat, pressing “play” triggers sound effects. You can pre-order Soundwave now for US $189.99 | CAN $229.99 | UK £159.99 or pick up in stores on August 1, 2025.

Everybody make some noise for Deception Soundwave

If there’s ever a need for reliable communications for the Deceptions, you can rely on Soundwave. The only comms channel we need open now is to The LEGO Group from fans to convey that we will be needing more LEGO Transformers, and this build by Zach Sweigart reinforces just that message.

The terror of tiny Transformers

As a kid, I think the Transformers cartoon did teach me some memorable words, like screaming at the top of my lungs in Megatron style “Decepticons, retreeeatt!” These too deserve some shout out with the family members that we’re sure to find familiar. There’s Daddy “Screaming” Megatron, Sonny “Rebellious” Starscream, Brother “Silent” Soundwave, “Conehead” Ramjet, “See-It-All” Reflector and “Shoot-em-up” Shockwave. All these were brought to you by Joe Perez, using the LEGO Mixel joints that were in abundance in the theme.

Even though these are not transformable, and neither do I expect them to be, they make a nice tiny collection that demands to be in my collection one day.
