Hasbro has filed a new petition to the US Patent and Trademark office, and it is for the name Shockwave! While we have had some figures named Shockwave recently, it is interesting to see them going for the rights on this name. Does this mean an Animated figure, a Universe, or Movie figure? Could it lead to an Encore release? We'll have to wait and see.

Unless it pertains to a reissue here, I'm not phazed one way or the other really. It's just a name to me. Same deal with the Alternator.

Maybe they can release the mold they planned for Titanium Shockwave in a Universe package.

I'm going to put in a guess for Animated Shockwave.

Whatever it is I am sure we will eat it up. Looking forward to it no matter what it is.

Wasn't Shockwave the only G1 figure to have both ELBOWS and KNEES?

My first bet would be TFA too, with Universe/Classics falling a close second.

I'm highly doubtful this indicates and Encore release. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Hasbro has taken anything from Takara's Encore line since they did that "Commemorative Series" thing... and that was years ago.

The prototype Titanium mould was freekin' sweet, but I'm guessing it's probably an animated figure.

I pray to myself for both.

The Mini-con Shockwave was a giveaway early in the game.

I hope it's the Movieverse triple changer (anti-air turret / Apache / very G1-esque robot mode with movie aestetics)

Heck, he was close enough to G1 to do double duty as a Classics/Universe Shockwave.

That would be funny if the toy gun laws prohibited the Titanium Shckwave. "Watch out! That kid has a "Noisy Cricket"!"

Realistically I'm thinking Animated Shockwave,
but really hoping for a Universe Shockwave, IF it's not a stupid Cybertron mold repainted.

You mean like a Deringer? Those tiny little pistols?

My bet goes for Animated Shockwave, Of course that doesn't stop me from hoping they release this unused mold from Titanium in Universe:

I think Getter is referring to the gun that Will Smith's character Agent J used in Men In Black. A tiny little gun that packed quite a punch known as the Noisy Cricket.
Which makes the joke. How can someone mistake Titanium Shockwave for a real gun.

"Look the kid's got a tiny purple gun, shoot him!!!'
