Hmmm...if all that yellow **** comes off and the few parts that need to remain (antennae and hose) are properly colored, maybe this could be a passable Classics Shockwave worth $12...or even $22 Will have to monitor as things unfold...

Now if all that red **** comes off and the figure actually looks like that, maybe this could be a passable Classics Shockwave worth $12...or even $22 Will have to monitor as things unfold...

This prototype looks like ****. The colors and some of the plastic looking like they haven't been attached properly? Also,1200 for one of them!??!

I've seen people on crack making more sense than the people selling for THAT much for an ugly looking knockoff.

COmpletely off topic, but am I the only one who missed seeing early "leaks" of prototypes like this? I always thought the old prototype leaks would add to the fun and hype of new figures yet to come.

I love seeing prototypes! It's fun because they're often in...odd colors. XD Remember the prototype of FoC Starscream we saw?

You are aware that prototypes' colors are not the final intended colors for figures? Early models are always made with crappy colors because it is just a physical representation of their design. They are never intended to be a final representation...hence a prototype. So no one should worry about these colors looking bad.

Btw, this I didn't intend this to be directed at you specifically. There just seems to be a lot of confusion about these images. No one freaked out over the prototype images of the OP PRiD remold for Ultra Magnus that surfaced a few weeks ago.

And the beast armor is removeable! Again, I don't understand the confusion...

I remember. Was very disappointed when we stopped seeing them on a regular basis...I think it pretty much stopped after the second movie line...

Shockwave is NOT FOR SALE.
No, dont try to bribe him.
He will remain loyal to Megatron.
Or overthrow him to be the new leader.
Whatever is more logical.

Voyagers cost 46 USD in The Netherlands, what the scrap are you complaining about?

The only logical choice for Decepticon leader would be Shockwave. Still wondering if he created these Preds with the intention of eventually overthrowing Megs. Fingers crossed.

Don't like the Bayformers feet. Maybe they come off too.

I love to see the wonky colored prototypes. One of these days I'll get one. I told myself if I ever trip over a stack of money on the sidewalk that's what I'll buy with it.

You know, the more I look at this prototype, the more I can't help but think that this color scheme (blue with golden highlights and some red) looks familiar. Very familiar.

But for life of me I can't remember where I've seen it before. If it was on another Transformer or even from some other toyline's figure.

^ Nope.

PBH Soundwave - Too many colors

PRID Dreadwing - Blue's too dark, too much gray, not enough red

RiD Sky-Byte - Too many colors


It might not have even been a TF. Could have been a Megazord or a Gundam or a Digimon or a Bionicle or a... argh, so many toylines I've played with.

That is one fair-looking bot! Much like a Classics Shockwave, though he's more of a Prime character. Anyway, 1,200 dollars for a prototype could get a little pricy for me (unless I step into Jeoperdy or America's Funniest Home Videos ), so I'll get a final version instead!

And did someone mention a prototype of Animated TC!? Impossible! I thought the toy's stock photo's where the only thing that proves the existence of this guy!

The Voyager was produced, just not mass produced.

At least two factory samples have made it into fans' hands:

What are you talking about? Where did I complain about the price?
