Hi Andrew. Good to hear from you again. I don't know the exact origin of this soundwave. I do not think this is a replica done by my friend. But from the picture, the box certainly don't look original as the yellow circle looks a lot brighter than the original. I do know that dinobot swoop box is availalbe now. And they look exactly like the original, and you can compare them side by side and won't be albe to tell.
