At first I was like "TANK" then I stopped to think...tanks are overused
Spaceship
Helicopter (not a single propeller kind)
and
Boat

His power...An orbital drop punch...yes Shockwave should have a power that hardcore

General ideas but if anyone has an idea to expand these ideas...be my guest

As for Megatron I have found the perfect alt mode:

And for a big kicker I give you....

I really hope Megatron NEVER gets an Earth mode, they ruined him enough with his tank(his movie 1 version was awesome though) but for Shockwave I could see a helicopter, he strikes me as the Blackout type of character.

Plus G1 Megtron=Gun, G1 Shockwave=gun
Movie 1 megatron=Jet(flying vehicle), so it makes a little sense that Shockwave could be a helicopter.

An Earth mode Megatron with the alt mode I posted would look more G1ish then Flytankatron, if the cannon was on his arm.
Any thoughts on what kind of helicopter Ol'one eye should be?

I don't know the specifics but those helicopters with 2 propellers at the beginning of movie one, except unlike Incinerator, the blades would go on his back instead of his arms.

Well the G1 look isn't all that important to me(although if megatron gets a earth mode it should be a tank) but looking good is, megatron ROTF looked terrible compared to movie one(which looked quite awesome).

Hmmm...what if the "wings" and blades formed the legs...

I freking HATE the first movie Megatron. The ROTF one has ALOT of G1 similarities, especually in the face

Those "helicopters" are the V-22 Osprey, a tiltrotor aircraft, an aircraft type combining the VTOL of a heli with the speed and range of a fixed wing, not actually a heli. Notoriously difficult to maintain properly, but very popular for movie makers because of their design appearance.

And isnt that what Animated Megatron is already?

That doesn't necessarily make his face better, or him better. I just happen to like his movie one design better.

But I still think the V-22 Osprey would make a good Shockwave, fits him well to me.

I never said it made it better, I just said I liked it cuz of that

What I meant was that you threw in "and he has alot of G1 references" which was sort of random, I took it to mean that makes him better, woops...

Back on topic, I wonder what it'd be like if ShockWave was a vehicle similar to that new deluxe figure Hailfire....

Yeah, I didnt really clarify what I was saying

Hailfire is the back to front propeller helicopter right?
If so that totally fits.

I think Shockwave's alt. mode in the first movie game would work, just tweaked a bit to look more realistic.
