Is it me or does Shockwave seem vaguely Toy Story-esque? Like he's got that exaggerated, simplified style TS has. Or maybe he's just dimly reminiscent of Emperor Zurg...
That mutant crab/tank mode is so ridiculous it's kind of awesome.

UM going from a unique mold to blue retool of OP is a massive step down.

I can't say I love what look to be relatively immovable feet, but other than that, I can find nothing wrong with Shockwave.

This figure shall be a purchase-on-sight.

He has one, it's formed by the tank treads, it's just not shown in these pics for whatever reason.

For all the previous Magnus' faults I prefer him over this one. The unique mould is always a plus for me. The only reason I can think of for releasing this too is that if he appears in the show, they can reuse op's cgi model and have it tweaked rather tha commission a new rig from scratch.

In honesty I prefer FOC shockwave, but I will get this one nonetheless. He'll be my first shockwave ever.
My personal prime collection so far in descending order of how great i reckon the toy is -
FE Prime, Silas Breakdown (Powerizer), Dreadwing (Powerizer), FE Bulkhead, Voyager StarScream (Powerizer), Ratchet, Soundwave, Arcee, Voyager Megatron (Powerizer), Wheeljack, Thundertron (Powerizer), Ultra Magnus (Powerizer), Knockout, Cliffjumper, Bumblebee,Airachnid

Holding off on PRiD Optimus Prime has paid off... Mostly. Now I can't decide between PRiD and BH Magnus, flatnose or long nose. :-?

Shockwave's future acquisition is only logical, unification with other Shockwaves is mandatory.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for Arms Microns, especially Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Affirmative. Skyquake/Dreadwing no longer necessary.

Shockwave is awesome. Not replacing FoC Shockwave for me, but still awesome.

Magnus is fail. Good thing I have the PRID version.

Shockwave looks amazing! I can't wait! UM, on the other hand, would be much better a few shades darker; I really like the remold though.
