It can hold four cassettes?!? Why not six so Rumble and Frenzy can fit as well?

I might have a small interest in this though.

Hell, why not 10 so we can fit Overkill, Slugfest, Beastbox and Squaktalk too?

The press release states:

"The four figures fully convert between robot and cassette mode and fit into SOUNDWAVE when in cassette mode."

I think that sentence just means that each of the four cassettes is capable of fitting into Soundwave's chest, but not necessarily all four at the same time. Since this is Hasbro issuing the 25th anniverary release and not Takara, it's probably going to be the dual-cassette deck Soundblaster repaint (like the TRU release). It'll be interesting to see what Hasbro does with the packaging. Unfortunately, it will probably be similar to the 25th Anniversary Optimus Prime packaging and not Vintage TF style.

Of course. Its not even possible to fit 4. Soundblaster only fits 2 and its not particarly good looking.

I would go for that...ten it is.

Now, if they would start working on a Blaster....

They should just make one where the tapes pop out the back in some fashion that way you could just jam them all in it over & over again

I third that. With a little MP Ravage to go with it.

To be honest, the Soundwave at the top of this page looks to me like the TRU reissue with the Soundblaster door. I don't see how it could hold four cassettes without looking a bit ridiculous. Not to mention how front and top-heavy it would be on poor Soundwave's backwards knees.

Ah, now I see the confusion. Thanks for the response Crow. Hopefully this SDCC Exclusive is the expanded version.

You're welcome, Capt.

Im pretty sure the SDCC is the one at the top of this thread that holds the 4. I say screw this and lets get a MP Soundwave in the works

Not only do I second that, but I'm sure everyone else here would second that in a heartbeat.

Ya, but even by that press release it clearly shows an expanded cassette door. I was always under the impression that the Japanese model always held two cassettes. I don't know how many this will carry at once, but I think it will carry more than one.

The press release shows two different versions of Soundwave. This one has a single-cassette door:
