What form should they use for live action Soundwave/Blaster?

I read an article that Soundwave was originally written into the script but due to Michael Bay wanting to keep the scale and physics as realistic as possible he opted to not have Soundwave's character in the first film, instead having Frenzy, Soundwave's tape bot, in the film as a CD boombox. This thread is to brainstorm ideas of what would be an acceptable alternate form for both Soundwave and Blaster to take in order for them to appear in the future films (if Bay doesn't allow for cartoon/comic physics to be used in the live action adaptation and have a tapedeck become 30 feet tall).

If you could pick a form for Soundwave or Blaster in the next film, what would it be?

Also for the triple changers (Astrotrain, likely an essential character, and Blitzwing, the Tank/Jet).

one of the things that really added fuel to the fire of bay-haters was that they were gonna make Soundwave a Helicopter or something.

A guitar 😐

Seriously though, an acceptable form for Soundwave would be some sort of military vehicle (as the Decepticons usually choose) that emits a high-frequency pitch or something that shatters glass or whatnot. Or a soundwave that is concussive.

A giant canon

they'll probally have mass shifting he just didn't want it to be in first one

Soundwave will be more received than Blaster, since he is a very recognizable Decepticon.

I imagine he could be made into a mobile dish/cannon, also to include his mini-bots like Laserbeak, Rumble, and Ravage.

Frenzy was cool in the movie, but his true master is Soundwave, not Barricade.

I was thinking some kind of communications vehicle myself. Like maybe a news van or a military comm unit with a dish.

he'd be a ****in decked out News broadcast Van if that at all lol

Yeah that was what I was thinking sense he was primarily a communications/tech/recon guy. A mobile kind of tech lab vehicle would be good.

But if Soundwave is in then the other tape bots have to come in. What I would like to see is them being kind of add ons. Like a Labtop(Ravage), Video Camera (Laserbeak), another CD Player(Rumble)

they should just leave him as beeing a boombox

Negative.

astrotrain could be a space shuttle/bullet train

the cement mixer constructicon should be a cement mixer truck, so he can move.

Hot Rod should be a customized street racer, with the signature flames

Soundwave should be a space satellite that beams it's cassette minions to earth in order for them to aid the Decepticons.

I know a way they could EASYLY make him a massvive boob box and make it make sense

but im not telling ahaha

Man, I didn't realize at first how cool my idea was. Laser sharp-shooting from space. Awesome.

why not just make Soundwave a helicopter like the originally intended? or something else that wouldnt do his character any justice? jks

Satellite!

A satellite isn't a bad idea at all. But it seems to me that would fit Shockwave better.

I still like the idea of a mobile communications lab or something where he can have a number of high tech gadgets for the Tapes.

Maybe a New Van. Would fit him I guess.

lol modified Dodge Durango Communications Van 😛

One of those stealth survellaince fighters. Or, how about he splits into 5 different smaller forms who transform - and call them ravage, buzzsaw, laserbeak, rumble, and either slugfest or overkill - and they gather information; they they all combine together to make soundwave. It would be a homage to how he kept them all inside his chest before, like they were one unit.
