Customer Reviews for LEGO - Icons Transformers: Soundwave Model Kit 10358
Posted by: Spider Yonjou

I had a lot of fun building this set. Ravage and Laserbeak were beautiful, almost exactly like their modern day toy counterparts.
Soundwave was a very fun build. The one problem I had was that as I continued to build, I started to see how the transformation was going to work, except for the arms. I couldn't see where they were going to be hidden. I won't "give away the ending", but the title of this review comes close.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beautiful build/ terrible quality

I was so excited for this set literally all year. I finally got it and enjoyed the build so much, but the actual set is so bad. Every single joint is extremely loose, to the point you can barely pose the figure at all. At first it was just the shoulder joints, then it was the hand joints, now the knees/ankles are giving out. I've had this set for literally 5 days and it's already near useless. It can only be displayed in its Walkman form unless you super glue the whole thing together in the exact pose you want. I am incredibly disappointed in a way I never have been with Lego. (The image included was taken the first day I had it. The right arm already won't support its own weight, hence why it's dropping down)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Multiple pieces missing from bag 8, integral ones I could not replace on my own. An unprecedented amount, more than I’ve ever seen rendering it UNBUILDABLE on bag 8-12. It’s a rare occurrence but this is unacceptable.

Box art has been destroyed by warning label.

I understand that this warning label is required, but Lego should figure out how not to destroy the box. I used to collect Lego sets, I would build it, but the box was still part of my display. Lego needs to stop using coin batteries, go to AAA or just remove the features that the Lego set doesn’t need, or sell a separate “lighting kit” with the huge warning label on it. I want my box art back, it is disgusting that I have to try and import sets at a premium cost just to get a box without a label that takes up almost a 1/4 of the cover.

We're sorry to hear you're having trouble building Laserbeak. That definitely shouldn't be the case. If any parts of your LEGO® Transformers: Soundwave set aren’t holding together as they should, we’d be happy to help troubleshoot! Just give us a shout at LEGO.build/Service-BV, and we’ll do our best to get you back on track.

Very enjoyable to build the set, but doesn't seem sturdy enough during the transformations. Bricks pop off, maybe a leg comes out of the socket, etc. It can get cumbersome. I'll revisit this after I spray some adhesive on it to try to hold things together.

Cool set but I do have a few dislikes about it.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Everything is pretty cool except the price and the fact that it falls apart when you try to transform it. This seems like a set that would be a contender for gluing together to make it more durable. I think that is probably a big no-no for Lego building though. I don't know, I am just a casual builder and don't know all the rules.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks for the feedback! We're glad you like the set, but we're sorry to hear Soundwave isn't holding together during transformation. Gluing bricks isn’t recommended, but we’re happy to help if parts aren’t staying put — just reach out at LEGO.build/Service-BV.

Amazing except one horrible thing

I got sound wave for myself and I thought this set is awesome. I built him. It was great, and then I tried to display him he stands up very straight and awesome. However, the arms can't hold themselves up. This is the worst part they fall so he just sag them by his side. It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen in a Lego set. Why would they have arms that can't hold themselves up they could've just used a stronger connection. Do better Lego.
I would recommend this to a friend!
