In the alternate Shattered Glass Transformers universe where the Autobots are evil and the Decepticons are heroic, Soundwave is the morale officer and communications expert of the bold Decepticons. He is a white reskin of Soundwave's usually devious tone, has the same pack of couragous cassettes, but has the personality polar opposite of the original Soundwave. Instead of being an emotionless bore with a robotic vocoder voice, Soundwave is an upbeat benefactor who speaks in a comical surfer lingo.
