I'm sure the tables and chairs won't rise up against us.

Soundbarrier was one type of Selector, a race of Transformers created by humans with the power of Angolmois Energy to serve mankind. In particular, Soundbarriers were used as ramps, servants, and assorted furniture. However, the Selectors didn't care for their position in life and sought to rebel against humanity with the help of Megatron's Decepticons.

Part of the first wave of Earthrise Battle Masters, Soundbarrier transforms from robot mode to a shield that can be held by any C.O.M.B.A.T. System-compatible figure. His alt mode also features an A.I.R. Lock System connector on each end, allowing him to connect with any compatible pieces. He can also connect with himself to create ramps. Exercise caution while handling him: As his entire torso is painted translucent plastic, Soundbarrier may break if not handled carefully, especially when you attempt to rotate his leg backwards.
Like all Earthrise toys, the cardboard back of Soundbarrier's package includes an exclusive cut-out collectible piece of a larger star map. Unlike most larger toy size classes, this piece does not include a named location.
In Japan, Soundbarrier was available as a TakaraTomy Mall exclusive.
This mold was also used to make Sheeldron.
