Soundwave is easily the very illustration of nostalgia.

modern kids have no idea what a tape recorder is. even those kid's parents might not know what that is

this set sells exclusively to people who grew up in the 80's, who had both Transformers and Lego, and now that they are all grown up, they can get the thing like the thing. wasn't that cool?! I can cash in some investments and spend $180 easily, those old-timers (50+) say

another example of Lego "trying something crazy" (expensive Transformers) and it winds up being profitable, so why not keep doing it? gotta admit, it looks pretty accurate, at least
