That's where Hasbro gets clever, my boy. For you see, Smokescreen and Shockwave were created in Beast Hunters, and their not beasts. So, by default, they need "armor." But sneaky Hasbro gave us the option to remove them and have clean figures! Aren't they brilliant?
Also, all of the yellow "jaggity crap" is just rubbery plastic. Only the things on his chest and shoulders are armor.
I (my own opinion here) wish Shockwaves cannon arm were a bit smaller. DOTM Shockwave had the same overgrown cannon. I'm trying not to live in the G1 era shadows here but it seems a little over done. It could be half of that and still be pretty cool.

To be fair the cannon appears to collapse a bit
On topic, I'm skipping most of this line until I see them on screen, that may be a deciding factor for me. Until then put me in the Smokecreen/Shockwave/Predacon boat with the rest of you.
