Could this be the year of Shockwave? Is Shockwave able to be inducted into Transformers Hall of Fame at BotCon 2011?

Shockwave will be one of the main villains in the upcoming Transformers live action movie - Dark Of The Moon. Thanks to HK-TF member junowong28, we get to see the Voyager Class movie incarnation Shockwave toy figure.

STILL one of the most impressive Movieverse, Cybertronian mode figures we've seen. Leagues better than any of the Megatrons, cooler body proportions than the two 2007 preview figures, and a better transform than The Fallen's Robot Yoga.

Definitely on my list.

[GuyIncognito]

I'm not crazy about it, I wish the alt mode was a cleaner looking cannon or something, but I'll have to buy it anyway just because it's Shockwave.

[FanimusMaximus]

The tri-cannon does it, he will be mine.

[Jesterhead]

Will be one of the few DOTM toys I pick up.

[SaTaN CoNvOy]

All in all this figure looks kool but there is just something about the head/face/eye that's just not clicking with me.....But of course its worth the pickup, I'm mean hey its mutha f****ing Shockwave!

[Amelie]

I immediately thought of this.

Crossed with this -


I already own the Rocklord. He's pretty neat, but I'd like him less if he transformed into something that resembled a rock with tank tracks.

[Rated X]

Will make a great classics Shovkwave !!! And I want Taliban Megatron too.

[Requiem Prime]

Not bad, very Shockwavy. I don't think my brain can stretch far enough to put him anywhere near my classics (at least not without a delightful cross-dimensional fanfic )

I was worried he'd only draw me strickly by how hard I've been jonesing for anything remotely Shockwave. I like him, but those hands better swivel. It's inexcusable at Voyager scale.

I'm getting more of a vibe of this guy from this Shockwave:

[GetRightRobot]

Head, arm cannon, robot mode and colors. Sold. Tank mode is moot.

[paul053]

Just notice now. Does......he.......has.......monkey.......arms?

All we need now is the possible Leader Class with the Arm cannon on the opposite arm.

Though our luck the Leader Class Bumblebe and Ironhide took the spot so that we can only get an leader Optimus and maybe if enough room a Megatron Leader.

While Starsream, Blackout, The Fallen, etc figures tat should be leader classes will phase out of existence.

Starscream and Optimus already got their Leader figures. You can't get any better Leader molds for those two than the ones we got in ROTF and the 2010 toylines.

Yea but seeing how Optimus is the most frustrating of leader classes and how Hasbro does leader classes it would not surprise me if they recolor Leader Starscream and dumb down or retool Leader Optimus.

The Leader Starscream has already been redecoed into Masterpiece Movie Starscream.

Ya can't get much better than this and original.

And why would they "dumb down" Leader Optimus? That's kinda insulting to the mold and to the minds/skills of those who purchased it.

[Grahf]

I'm now officially sold on this figure now. Can't wait to get my hands on one.

[frogbat]

not bad... still better than any megatron figure (actually can't think of any decent megatrons... perhaps armada tank megs was ok)

the vehicle mode and colours remind me of g1 skullgrin

[Sabrblade]

Animated Leader Megatron? Classics Voyager Megatron? Generations Cybertronian Megatron? Energon Megatron? Cybertron Megatron? Beast Wars Transmetal Megatron? Beast Wars Transmetal 2 Megatron? G2 Combat Hero Megatron? RiD Megatron? RobotMasters Beast Megatron? Machine Wars Megatron? Alternity Megatron?

All pretty good (if not better) Megatron molds.

[Megatron Wolf]

I still say this was suppose to be Galvatron or Megatrons new form but they dcided to use it as shockwave and give Megatron a crappy form. The overall look and shape, the giant cannon on the right arm, even the cannons little gimmick is taken from a previous Megatron figure, finally had a chance at getting a decent movie Megatron and they decide to make him Shockwave. I might get one just to kitbash it into Megatron or Galvatron, wont be hard just need a head and some paint and ill throw this head on my KO G1 Shockwave.

[kirbenvost]

Definitely one of the best DOTM figures so far.

[BATTOUSAIXD]

Shockwave looks pretty awesome to me! I wish we would have gotten some pics of the bio and abilities though... And I really hope he and Megatron both get a leader.

fair enough.. all better moulds than any movieverse megs. But i always felt megs never got the same quality or thought that the prime toy received. For example My main collection is g1/classics. I don't have a classics megs yet cos well i don't like him. My fave mould is the wfc one but my quibble with that is that he's a deluxe size..

just feel shockwave has had better treatment over the years.

[Kung Fu Man]

I'll hold off on this, it just doesn't feel like Shockwave to me...very broad and bulky rather than sleek and stunning. It is the best looking of the DotM lot thus far however.

Pretty much the same reason DOTM is already seeming like the dumbed down the difficulties of ROTF. In size and some designs (Voyager Prime would like a word about designs)
