I don't think this is the size of MP sideswipe. If it was I'd think about buying it.

I'm guess by the pics it will be as tall as MP seekers....

Based on their previous (cancelled) product, Acoustic Wave, I'd say they are going for the slightly taller than seeker height. And that's where I need Shockwave to be in my MP collection, not sized w/Sideswipe. Also with a projected $150 price, this sounds appropriate for the larger-sized figure.

Course if he was close to Sideswipe, he'd just go in Classics collection. FOC Shockwave is neat, but simply too anemic for that task. But the price would need to be under $100.

I'm starting to think that the next two or three Tak MP's will include Blaster and Shockwave. While I don't know the circumstances around releasing MP-12 & 13 so close to each other it always seemed like Tak was doing it in response to Acoustic Wave. If that was the main reason behind MP-13 then some better official versions might be around the corner.

Hm. At that size it *might* fit in a classics collection. If you have Hegemon anyway.

I'll have to size compare Prime to see...

hmmm. Just about almost acceptable, given that he's squared off against Scorponok, Megatron/Galvatron and all 5 Dinobots at least a few occasions across continuities. Dammit, I shouldn't even be considering this! But he so nice.

Loosk pretty good. I hope they improve on the gun handles and back of the gun a little more. Nice to see he is MP size.

Shouldn't the tube run under the arm? I'm not wild about it going way over the shoulder like this.

Overall it's not a pretty decent representation of Shockwave.

I dont think it would fit well. I really wish they would just let fans vote on the scale. Voyager would win by a landslide.

This looks pretty cool actually!

I wonder if the bitch-slap from Hasbro will push the price up of this Shockwave homage to recoup costs of Soundwave/Acoustic Wave?

Is it now time to start debating the cost of this Masterpiece and if so, considering a lot of 3rd party studios do actually listen to fandom, should we agree on a average price or just throw out some ridiculously high guesses and let us all be shafted by the outcome?

Sorry, getting a little carried away by several glasses of post Christmas/pre New Year wine!! :lol:

Looks great to me, but it's too big. I don't really collect MPs. I have a few, but I am definately not a dedicated collector.

It'd be nice if they produced a shrunken down version. Voyager size would be nice. Ultra size (the size of Hegemon) would be better.

The blue one is a test shot. Who'd go to all the trouble of making an MP Shockwave and then spoil it all to make it blue and not purple? We were even shown the blue one right when this was announced. Don't you guys recognise it?

I only collect MP or MP scale figures so i like the size. I think Shockwave looks really good. I like, however, not that the hose is on the top of the arm, hope you can change that. Call me crazy but I want it on the underside of the arm.

Hiya 'crazy' (sorry, couldn't help myself :P). I agree. I was looking at the pic and hoping that perhaps he has a 360 degree bicep swivel and an elbow joint that goes both ways so that you can rotate the hose connector to the bottom. Sadly I doubt that's the case, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
