Transformers Has Bay made a statement why the most-popular SOUNDWAVE was not in the film?

[Radford]

I'd like see Soundwave appear as something like this:

Size shifting wouldn't be an issue, and it'd be true to the character's role as recon.

i have absoluted loved this design since it first surfaced. i say if they an get his robot form chest to look similar to the old tapedeck door, while keeping it relative to the alt-mode, then we have a total winner.

Where did that come from?!?!?!?

I like it a lot. That would have been fine by me.

I love Ravage and like the way this designer integrated him into the design ... surely there would be opportunities to do something similar for a Lazerbeak.

Nice.

b) Please. No Size shifting. Its an idiotic concept that should never ... ever .. be implemented.
