Psssst, Animated Shockwave + Alternator Shockblast + Shattered Glass = this guy

sigh. yes, I already figured that out, just hadn't felt the need to spell it out quite so obliquely for the slow kids at the back trying to chew their GoBots heads off.

Except we already have a Shattered Glass Shockwave in fiction. He's modeled after Energon Shockblast with colors opposite on the color wheel.

Of course, I'd forgotten about that, it kinda makes Longarm's disguise pointless. Unless this is what he looks like pre-disguise? In which case, Shattered Glass is making less and less sense as time goes on. Still, nice colours on a great toy, I wouldn't turn one down. Not gonna be scouring the aftermarket for one mind you, I might be Scottish, but I'm no Scrooge McDuck.

Makes you wonder why they just didn't offer a repaint of Shockblast as SG Shockwave.

Why not use Energon Six Shot instead?

Or it is the heroic Decepticon infiltrating the Evil Autobot ranks (Makes more sense that Shockwave is still posing as Longarm, than Longarm as Shockwave).

Wow, this seems pointless

It's the same basic deal as Animated Cheetor: "How many homages can we fit into one figure?" Ani Cheetor was Beast Wars and TransTech in an Animated figure. This one is just on the surface Animated and Alternators in a Classics figure and that's without even knowing the back story they gave him!

Stuff like this is why I love being a Club member, they come up with the coolest new ideas from the history of Transformers!

Maybe he's a separate autonomaton operated remotely by SG Shockwave.

Did anyone else notice the car is missing it's driver's side front wheel and seems to be floating?

Finally for once a custom class figure nobody really cares about. Still hoping for CHMS versions of G2 Sideswipe and Minerva since they have both the molds. But Longarm ??? Waste...

According to TFWiki, SG Longarm is captain of the SG Autobot Autotroopers, and is going undercover posing as G1 Shockwave to investigate the conflict between the Classicverse and the Shatteredverse.

Looks pretty slick, I think. Something I can easily live without, but I think it looks really cool.

Longarm? I see no long arms.

These script writers must really be smoking some good bud when they do SG storylines...

A proper Deluxe-sized Alternators Shockwave? Sweet

heh. pretty cool. would probably get one for retail Deluxe price.

So Longarm is an evil autobot from the SG universe, who goes undercover as an evil decepticon in the classicsverse. This makes a little more sense as SG shock wave dosn't become a blody car, but maybe classicsverse shockwave dose. And you know what, THERE ARE TO MANY DAMN PARRALELL UNIVERSES. make it stop....
