It's practically the same shade of purple as the Hasbro version. Don't forget that these are photoshops, so there's gonna be some tinting to the image.

Plus, I wouldn't quite call this closer to the G1 cartoon Shockwave than the Hasbro version

It would be a waste for them to include the cannon since the already made a Micron that was specifically designed to replace the cannon.

Why would they throw in a G1 cannon for a toy in their Prime line?
You mean a WFC/FOC cannon. ;)

No, that's not what I meant. He said "original cannon," so I thought he was referring to a G1-esque cannon.

He meant the toy's original cannon, which was the Generations cannon.

Motto: ""Assumption is the mother of all screw ups.""
Weapon: Saw-Edged Pincer
Let me clarify what I meant:

This version appears to be more of a "blueish purple" that resembles the G1 cartoon. Unlike the Hasbro version (which I own) which is more of a "reddish purple" like the G1 toy. I intend to flip the wings down (or just pop em off) and use this as my classics shockwave. The huge arm cannon (AKA micron) looks retarded.

And this is not a TF Prime mold. It is an FOC mold packaged in a Japanese TF Prime box. Whoever made that decision at Takara gets a Nobel Prize. :BANG_HEAD:

True, but the likely reason they went ahead and used it was due to Shockwave's appearance in the cartoon necessitating them to give their market something to stand in for the absence of a proper Prime Shockwave toy.

It's close enough (color, chest, wings, cyclopic head, gun arm, etc.) to use for now in case they don't make a Prime Shockwave toy (it could happen, since they didn't make a new mold toy for Smokescreen, who's been a much bigger character in the show).

Why they aren't giving certain show characters their own molds, however, is baffling.

FOC is also in the same continuity as Prime, so this is the same guy anyway. Different suit, same psycho.

Magnus looks nice and the Overload Micron is a super cool nod to fans. The same for Leo Prime and his Micron. It's freaking Moon! Haha! I won't be getting these but they are probably the best looking AM figures IMO.
