I really doubt it was even Bay's design. He probably simply chose designs concept artists gave him and then said "yes! That works!". I would love to see some other versions of shockwave if there were any.

Actually the back parts are movie acurate from what i have seen

I feel like the original movie toy line got the Deluxe, Voyager and Leader class perfectly. UK prices used to be £10-15 for a deluxe, £20-25 for a voyager and £40-50 for a leader class bot. The sizes of them were perfect for the size they needed to be, Megs and Prime (Brawl too) were noticeably larger than the rest but not obscenely. And the voyagers were larger than the deluxe classes, but again, not by an obscene amount. By the time the third movie released voyager class toys were the size of deluxe class ones and leader class became the size of voyagers - but infuriatingly kept the same prices, and even increased in some lines! Wish things would go back to a simpler time.

Dotm prime and shockwave are actually my favorite trilogy designs. I mean I “like” the others, but two designs from the trilogy really got me before I became a fan. I’m still mad shockwave wasn’t the main villain of the 3rd film. I mean if megatron stayed dead after the first film and starscream was in charge. The. Shockwave would’ve been a great successor to both. Plus he and sentinel would’ve made more sense as a team.

Bro you made my childhood, and im proud of that.

I haven’t watched a vid from you in what feels like forever, this was probably the best way to dive back in. I love your vids, great job. Why does Hasbro hate Shockwave fans a.e. Siege shockwave is still $50 everywhere except for amazon and this one is $50 and their the same height (voyager).

I've been subscribed for 8 years. Thank you for the great content.

Woah, I can’t believe I didn’t think about putting his hose in that position for the vehicle mode. Now he rolls smoothly. Smart!

I noticed it said Voyager class in the title. Yet this looks cool and i wish i had it if i ever find him were i live

15:32 it states in the official charts that both megatron and shockwave are the *same size.* its just that shockwave is beefier.

Big respects for Hasbro and Takara/Tomy on making Shockwave in all of his glory. Probably the best one and HUGE improvements against the voyager Shockwave. I'm planning to buy him on Amazon, along with Soundwave and the 2007 Camaro Bumblebee. For this Shockwave, it's very cool that this is like a reserved SS Megatron. Interesting.

Very nice figure, they did a great job replicating the character, I still have the original Voyager DOTM Shockwave and he looks nice, but this one blows the old one out of the water for screen accuracy, no doubt about it, but it seems that this Shockwave has the same problem as the Siege Leader Class Shockwave, should be priced as a Voyager, not as a Leader class, still, a very cool review, Paul!

Excellent sculpt. I'll be getting the ZEUS TOYS ZS-01 which is basically a larger version of this figure

Just got here from SS-49 Bumblebee and am more convinced to get this Shockwave as my DotM collection. The price jump is more than likely because of the figures, the excess plastic and the detailing and Wheelie and Brains, as well as the paratrooper, more than likely costing a lot just to make the molds and get the paint right.

I really can't wait to get this guy, he looks fantastic

Shockwave: "Now its my turn" Inceticon: "Of course my quee- wait?.. come again?" Shockwave: "Knock knock" Inceticon: "...um?" Shockwave: "KNOCK KNOCK!" Incecticon: "...who's there?"

I have the original DOTM version, I definitely love and need to grab this My Walmart just got the first Studio Series Starscream (I wish I was joking) so hopefully he'll pop around soon

I would rather shockwave be purple than screen accurate. I hope they release a repaint more similar o the box art. I love shockwave purple.

MINE. ur welcome 4 comin back

I got the figure a few weeks ago, it's well done, I'm happy with the result, but the only complaint I have is the excessive use of rubber, the could've used plastic a bit more specifically for the hand and the claw/blade. But overall I love this Shockwave figure.

Imagine if they upscale this figure, HOLY GOD!!!

I love the sound effects

Great review

Wheelie and Brains are size accurate I love it lol

Hasbro Exec: So if I throw a Kinder egg toy in with this deluxe Optimus I now have a leader. Get me jar cause I'm awesome sauce.

I was hoping for you to post the other shockwaves you have. But it’s allll good

Out of every decepticon shockwave is my favorite

Fun fact. The original script for DoTM had shockwave as the main antagonist

Nobody when you get the question right in class without even studying but guess the answer intelligent as shockwave

The only Shockwave figure I've seen in weeks was the War For Cybertron "Leader" class one. Remember that? I got Ultra Magnus instead, because it made sense to be Leader class.

Optibotimus sound effects😂

It must be cool if they will make a dna upgrade kit for this figure like replacing the gummy plastic parts of that because in tine it will wear out.

It shouldn't be a leader class priced figure, but it was the same problem with the siege Shockwave, he looks too good for me not to find a way to get LOL!

Im so excited for the baiwei version

Sorry for the late comment just got my ss shockwave. Was wondering will shockwave hose break overtime? Coz my movie best shockwave havent had breaking issue so far.

I just bought shockwave for those two

i really like this figure as well and yes i believe that the leader price is a little high but itz still not as bad as the seige leader shockwave 😂

The Dyson vacuum has returned.

I own this Shockwave mold. And I think it is the best figure Hasbro has ever gave us!

Leader Class

It’s a good 10$ increase from voyager to leader. Voyagers usually cost 39$ while leaders are 50$

As far as the Arcee figures goes, which Arcee figure is better: Earthrise, Cyberverse, titans return, classics, animated or any of the fans toys version or mechfans?

Yeah shockwaves not for the price of leader with that size and also goes for earthrise Prime and Siege Shockwave.

This shockwave looks like something straight outta DOOM

This will be the first figure that I get where I wont bother trying to transform it.

I don’t even consider him as a leader, he’s basically a voyager but with a big cannon. And a hose. He’s still has parts from voyager megatron. That was Michael Bays best decepticon

The thumb is supposed to be the handle he had on his cannon

I prefer this alot more than the G1 shockwave.

I would love to get this figure but I dont know if I want to commit to it. What's your opinion paul?

This is a very high-quality figure but I'm kind of disappointed of how he is too small.. I always wanted a leader class shockwave that is as big as the old ROTF leader optimus. It just doesn't make sense for Shockwave to be smaller than Optimus prime since he is supposed to be way taller.

so real

My voltron shots these things called ' brains '.Ooh la la

I have one and just to let people know about this figure, the giant sword on his left arm may tend to be loose and slip off

Lore wise, driller is a giant wyrm that shockwave beat and trained as his personal pet/minion. The fact he subdued it despite its size says a lot about how dangerous shockwave is. I don't feel this guy is complete without driller. #justicefordriller

Im an old subscriber but just in a new package

I like shokwave

I love Shockwave 🤘🤘🤘

the Paratrooper is there becuz the scene when he covers his face with the shute before they take him out

Never understood why in the movie the cannon was in the right side arm. Like not the left like the G1. But I mean it’s something small I complain but whatever. Lol but they should take this plate form make it bigger.
