My only complaint is while it's appropriate, the head should be a bit smaller for the sake of the figure.

I guess. I'm just saying that while it's appropriate for shockwave, having it few milimetters smaller would make it look more proportionate by human-y standards. I mean like quakewave has a big head, but he also has wide and bulky shoulders to balance it out. MP shockwave's are wide, but not as bulky.

Please don't ruin the joy before it has a chance to thrive. There's a time and place for that conversation, a little later on in the thread. C'mon guys. We don't need a battle brewing at this moment, at least let it get to page 2 or 3.

Now's good for me.

You know what I take it all back, i'm used to shockwaves having narrower faces if that makes sense, and deeper set eye(s). MP's is a lot fuller for lack of a better term.

I hope it's a Pony instead. How many gun transformers do we need?

I wouldn't consider not getting the Has/Tak version -- you've gotta get the real thing and support the line. But I gotta say that right now, Quakewave is still looking a lot better to me, except for that stupid hose placement. Still, this is just a prototype, so hopefully they can take it up a notch.

And that was some stone-cold Machiavellian brilliance, leaking those images right before Quakewave was supposed to be hitting the major retailers. Well-played, HasTak; well-payed. :APPLAUSE:
