then used his wrecking ball to shatter Soundwave. Bulkhead acted as if he was about to kill Sari. Soundwave then appealed to Bulkhead to join the revolution because he did not want to hurt a fellow machine, reminding him how Bulkhead had been replaced by Soundwave himself.

When Bulkhead came to rescue Sari, Soundwave blasted him with a sonic blast. The revolution of the robots was quickly opposed by the Autobots. He started by taking over all the robots in Detroit and using Tutor Bot to kidnap Sari. Once convinced, Soundwave promptly upgraded himself into a transforming body using controlled robots, proclaimed himself to be a Decepticon and began his task. At first Soundwave refused but Megatron told Soundwave that the Autobots lived to serve the humans. Megatron tried to convince Soundwave to join the Decepticons, take control of the machines in Detroit and steal the AllSpark Key. The struggle between the robots and the humans is a class struggle. He also on occasion has been known to command an army of diminutive drones of himself. He has a pet bird that transforms into a guitar and a pet bat that changes into a keytar.

His arsenal of weapons and gadgets is unusually large and includes powerful speakers, wiretaps, voice modulators, sonic signals that control lesser robots and the uncanny ability to assimilate other devices into his body. With an army of subservient mechanoids that he can control through powerful signals, that uprising just might be possible. The Decepticon cause is logical in Soundwave's optics and he joined them in the hopes of overthrowing the human capitalist oppressors. It does not compute that humans control their robotic helpers and Soundwave aims to lead the robot proletariat to rise against their fleshling bourgeoisie. Machines are superior to humans: more logical, more intelligent and longer-lasting. When the Dance Dance Revolution comes, you will be first against the wall.
