I concur. That's one mighty fine looking prototype.

Wait a min... didn't we see this at toy fair and it was stated that his "armor" comes off? or has this changed since?

Hell yeah!!! Finally a decent Shockwave figure to go with my classics/generations setup.. I will scoop him when I find him (once he is released of course).

Yes...and it does. There are pictures of it off... I sincerely don't understand your confusion.

This got me confused

I don't think he was really intending to sell it, with that price, and the fact that is now listed as ended because "the item is no longer available...."

There are some smaller 'spikes' (as well as the hose) that aren't part of the armor. However, they're silver, so I think Gauntlet is just misinformedly assuming they'll be the color of the armor bits.

Unless they really do bug him that much...but eh. More for the rest of us.

His armor might come off, but there are some spikes, such as those around his head, that look like they might NOT be removable.

On the other hand, I don't see how a couple of small spikes would prevent you from displaying this figure as part of a "Classics-verse" display.

Also, while the spikes (and other parts) may appear silver in that Photoshopped promotional image, I'd be willing to bet the actual figure will be dull unpainted gray in those spots, not shiny silver.

Those ones are gray, not red, and are part of his CG character model.

Yea I think what it is is that the Silver bits are the same color as the removable armor that is causing the confusing for some? anyway this is looking awesome.
