Seibertron.com member Kung Fu Man has shared a few in-hand and comparison images of the Transformers Dark of the Moon Voyager Shockwave repaint featuring translucent MechTech cannon and hose that surfaced a couple of weeks ago. Besides the obvious color changes and inclusion of translucent plastics, the Decepticon symbol has been moved from the cannon to the front portion/face cover of the tank. Still no word on the availability of this repaint.

Check out Kung Fu Man's images below.

If it is a ...

- US launch Repaint - I think they should have just taken the original and recolored all the colored parts purple. Just a translucent tip on his cannon would have been a nice touch along with a black hose from the cannon.

-Takara Version - same as above but with added shininess in various places.

Meh.....i'll stick to my G1. Although i do like the translucent plastic. I just still haven't seen a shockwave that beats the original and has tempted me to buy it. Even though the DOTM version is growing on me it just doesn't have a place in my collection whatsoever.

I would have liked it if other parts were translucent

I think I'd like it more if the re-paints head was purple too.

The tanslucent weapons looks great on shockwave but i'd keep the translucent tube on the original one as well.

I had the same notion!! Got both variants yesterday in the mail, some of the parts are the same colour as each other, unfortunately (so I can leave my 'normal' Shockwave as is), but, so far, I have managed to swap the chest - now I gotta figure out how to drift the pins out of their hinges to swap the feet, but now I have a more G1-ish Shockwave AND Shackwave:

With original Shockwave:

Why can't they just give us the colour we obviously want!! 8-}
