Here is some really interesting information about the Force Awakens and the greatest transformer of all time - Soundwave.
Thirty years after the defeat of the Galactic Empire, the galaxy faces a new threat from the evil Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) and the First Order. When a defector named Finn (John Boyega) crash-lands on a desert planet, he meets Rey (Daisy Ridley), a tough scavenger whose droid contains a top-secret map. Together, the young duo joins forces with Han Solo (Harrison Ford) to make sure the Resistance receives the intelligence concerning the whereabouts of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), the last of the Jedi Knights.
Soundwave (aka Soundblaster) is one of Megatron's most reliable troops, and he has positioned himself comfortably and irreplaceably in the Decepticon upper command structure. Though "only" Communications Officer, Soundwave stands at Megatron's side as a confidant, comparable in rank to Starscream and Shockwave, but unlike them, entirely loyal to his leader. Though stoic and possessed of little outward personality (as evidenced by his monotone computer-style speech), Soundwave is not without drives: he has worked hard to get where he is, and he guards his place in the Decepticon hierarchy fiercely. On top of hearing all in his role as Communications Officer and Decepticon spy-master, he is actually capable of "reading minds" by scanning and decoding the electrical impulses that carry "thoughts" in both organics and Cybertronians, and he will not hesitate to use what he learns as blackmail to keep himself high in Megatron's esteem. As such, Soundwave is not popular among the rank-and-file Decepticons, who see him as a two-faced snake and wouldn't mind abandoning him on the battlefield—if they thought Megatron would let them get away with it.
Soundwave commands an ever-growing legion of cassette troops to carry out tasks big and small. Stored within his signature chest compartment and called forth on Soundwave's whim with a push of a button, these miniature menaces are most commonly employed as spies for either the Decepticon cause or Soundwave's personal objectives, but are just as effective as warriors, and are entirely devoted to their master. They are also not Soundwave's only diminutive partners: as an Action Master, he is partnered with Wingthing.

We can also put text on this side of the picture for variety, which is of course the spice of life. Here's come cool stuff about transformer toys.
The first year of Transformers changed very little from the original Japanese Diaclone and Microman releases. The bulk of the changes were to the stickers (mainly adding new faction symbols, but also removing "Diaclone" texts and potentially-legally-contentious brandings) and some light retooling, including the removal/weakening of springs inside the missile launchers for safety reasons. Most of the toys' base color schemes came from the original lines, with a few exceptions: Ironhide, Sunstreaker, Skywarp, and Buzzsaw were new decos created whole-cloth by Hasbro.
One particularly helpful bit of marketing for this year is the clean division of good-guy/bad-guy alternate modes. The Heroic Autobots were the cars and trucks, and the Evil Decepticons were... everything else.
In contrast to the nigh-solid plastic toys of today, die-cast metal played a large role in these toys' construction. This was actually a cost-saving measure, a lingering effect from the petroleum price crises from the '70s made it a bit cheaper overall to make sizable chunks of toys out of metal instead of plastic! The larger cars (and some of the Mini Cars) also featured rubber tires, and most every toy had some piece on them that was chromed.
Unfortunately, these materials issues mean that these toys rarely age well, especially given the rigors of playground life. Paint chips off metal, rubber dries out and splits, chrome fades and rubs off, and the combination of metal-and-plastic on hinged parts leads to easier breakage. Many of these toys have outright notorious damage issues, and loose undamaged toys are a bit hard to come by.
Articulation was also a tertiary-at-best concern in the overall design scheme. It was rare for a toy to have moving parts that weren't directly tied to its transformation sequence beyond a simple rotating shoulder/elbow joint. These toys being "bricks", mixed with the aforementioned degradation/breakage issues, have largely relegated them to being display pieces for older collectors.
