I doubt im the first to find this but came a cross a KO Shockwave. I picked one up and its pretty decent for a KO. The head is different along with a few color swaps but other than that its spot on. If you cant get a hold of a real Shockwave heres a good filler until you do.

EDIT: oh and if you think the shipping is to much just ask him to take the figure out of the box to ship. Its cheaper and you still get every thing there. Thats what i did. I also picked up a KO Classics Megatron.

I saw this b4. Look up shockwave on ebay and see the G1 repaint knockoff that has like 22 bids :shock:
I was amazed it is at 111.00 dollars! :shock: I paid only 50.00 for a real Astro Magnum MIB :???:. What are the sounds like on yours? is it the same as G1 Shockwave? for 13.99 plus shipping you might not be able to beat that.

My experience with anything that says it ships from China or Hong Kong on Ebay is way overpriced crap. don't be scammed you are better off to pay for genuine TF and get what you want.

I have yet to check out the sounds. I dont even know what the G1 version sounds like so i couldnt compare it even if i did pull the little tab on the back and pulled the trigger. I dont like the hole lights and sounds thing in my Transformers figures. I got Shockwave and 2 Megatrons for $30 so id say thats a good deal. Every Shockwave ive bid on i never won so i said to hell with it and got this one. And im glad i did. It was well worth it. shakira you have a link to that $111 KO? I love to see how dumb people.

Yeah the head is the only thing that sucks. The rest of the figure is great but the head doesnt look right. Shockwave is know for his head. I have him on display in gun mode next to my G1 Megatron so it really doesnt matter. But i know that im going to want to display him in robot mode and its not gonna look right with that head.

Would it be possible to swap out the head?

The head can be removed so im sure it can be swapped out. Im trying to find a Shockwave head now to try it out.
