Soundwave Alt Modes Revealed in Revenge of the Fallen?
TFW2005 are reporting that their inside man (or woman), the “TFW TF2 Insider”, has confirmed the alt modes for Decepticon Soundwave in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Yes, I said Alt modes, meaning you (may) be seeing both his Earth and Cybertronian modes. His Cybertron mode will apparently be a satellite, and his Earth mode will be a pickup truck.
None of this has been confirmed, so take it as rumour until some official confirmation is out.

Soundwave (Marvel Comics)
ALLEGIANCE: DECEPTICON
FUNCTION: COMMUNICATIONS
FIRST APPEARANCE: TRANSFORMERS # 1
“Cries and screams are music to my ears.”
Profile: It is said that Soundwave can hear a fly sneeze. It is also said that beneath his smooth-talking, affable surface beats the generator coil of a blackmailer. Those who know these two facts about him are very careful about what they say within earshot of him. Soundwave is the ultimate opportunist and will use anything he can to advance his status in the eyes of the Decepticon Leader Megatron. He doesn’t worry about what others think of him because he knows he is nearly indispensable. Although they all despise him, the other Decepticons pretend to like him rather than get on his bad side. As Rumble explains, “Soundwave always has the last laugh.”
Abilities: Soundwave’s sensors can detect radio transmissions of the lowest energy levels. He can even “read minds” by monitoring the electrical impulses inside someone’s brain circuitry, if he’s standing nearby. He serves as the Decepticons’ communications relay station – he can keep them all in radio contact with each other within a radius of 100 miles. His photographic memory is due to the immense information storage capacity of the magnetic disks in his chest. He carries a high-amplification directional radiowave sensor and a concussion blaster-gun. He also has great physical strength.
Weaknesses: Soundwave sometimes gets overconfident about his value to the others. At times his hateful personality has resulted in retaliation from them, or worse yet, his abandonment during battle with the Autobots. So far, Soundwave has not only survived these incidents, but has seen to it that his betrayers pay for their actions.
