Shockwave has a couple parts from ROTF Megatron in his legs, and his transformation is largely similar. While it is mostly new parts, ROTF Megs is the base for Shockwave.

Voyager retooled into Leader?

Might be more shared engineering? I looked but couldn't tell too many similar pieces, we'll know more when in hand images show up and someone does a comparison to rotf megs

I can see the non-foot treads, the thighs and the upper arms are reused. Still, so far it's more similar to Moonracer/Novastar into Chromia.

remember rotf megs was considered a very big voyager, so, extra parts and what not could make him passable as a leader class

How do you know that exactly? It looks to me like they did use the chest of the previous toy, or at least it's CAD file.
I wouldnt call any of these retools though, just part sharing. The idea of using the word "mold" as a singular doesnt really work anymore anyway. Just like TR Blurr shares some parts (thus some of it's molding) with TR Chromedome (or how siege sideswipe shares a part with Sixgun and).

The wing panels were even bent when I unfolded them. I wish Hasbro/Takara went back to packaging TFs in vehicle mode, it'd probably prevent things like this. I really wanted to like this figure, and I would, if not for seeming to get the worst possible copy. One of the only TFs I've returned.
