Transformers Generations War for Cybertron: Siege Leader Class WFC-S14 Shockwave Action Figure

Shockwave, whose myriad incarnations display a wide-ranged spectrum of loyalties to Megatron, has been immortalized in many different figures over nearly 4 decades. Takaratomy and Hasbro have provided versions that tease us into hoping for a definitive mainline version but this Siege figure has come the closest if you discount the Masterpiece figures. Robot mode is very reminiscent of the original G1 figure, with the gun barrel neatly folding over as a backpack, instead of the original loose part-former gun remnant needing to magically disappear. The official alt mode is a space battleship ala Star Blazers when you add the flying sled pieces. If you omit the supplemental battleship parts and put the battleship upside down, you see that the designers surreptitiously gave fans a pretty darn good off-label G1 alt-mode while dodging the wrath of the overly protective and their lawyers. With inflation, Transformers seem to be shrinking in relationship to their class. This "Leader" class figure is the height of a small Voyager figure. I suppose the many plastic sled parts add to the plastic volume. Nonetheless Siege Shockwave scales very well with the fellow Siege figures of Megatron, Soundwave, and the Seekers. While I've never owned a G1 Shockwave, this figure does stir some nostalgia for the charm of the beautiful original toy.

This is Log 50 my living room is a lab that Shockwave has made and it's guarded by the rainmakers and Blitzwing controls most of the ground troops. Me and the Autobots hide in my room protecting it. But Shockwave is in charge until the council of Megatrons comes back from fighting optimises group why until more Autobot arrivals come we have to hold out... For real tho this Shockwave figure is great not a bad joint in him but his armor attachments are a bit loose when you combine them into their hoverboard like the pegs have deteriorated a little but it's not a problem

Brand new on a good price for an older figure, look fantastic with d16, starscream and soundwave

This is really good figure I 100% recommend this shockwave

I got this figure at $30, so it was definitely worth the cost. If at MSRP of $50, I would not be as happy with my figure, or bought it. Pros: Good sculpt, pretty good articulation, good paint apps. Cons: Some pegs are a little loose, when combining. Misc: Some might be turned off by what appears to be random assortments of parts on Shockwave. I thought it was fine, but would have liked to see a little more thought into the Shockwave's battle armor. It doesn't feel very cohesive. On a side note, you can put some parts with Siege Voyager Megatron for extra play value. (The Shockwave's battle armor pegs fit onto Megatron's ports)

Except for masterpiece Shockwave, this is the best version to date. He's a bit smaller than I would like, but He's a great figure. Lots of poseability, The extra armor makes for interesting extras and can be used with other siege characters. The price is a little steep for his height, but I think that's due to the extra plastic used in making this character. He's solid and doesn't feel hollow.

Great Item

I have a slight issue with some of the pegs for the attachments, but that probably just my figure. Overall, this is one of the better shockwaves I’ve seen in a while. It’s really accurate to the G1 design with the added attachments to offer more play ability. Overall, if your fan of transformers toys, this is a Must buy for collectors interested in a quality shockwave.

Ｇ１ショックウェーブのシージ版です。 内容は、 本体ｘ1 肩アーマー 下駄パーツ バックパック 本体はオリジナルの姿を踏襲、変形するとガンモードではなく、宇宙船風な姿になります。 変形に関しては特にストレス無く行えたので初心者にもお勧めです。 【気に入った点】 本体はスマートな姿ですが、各パーツを装着することで見た目がガラリと変わります。 ロボットモードでは4本腕の異形な姿に、ビークルモードでは宇宙戦艦へと変わり、見た目も更にカッコ良くなります。 総評は☆５です。やっぱり4本腕のアレンジが印象的に強く、それが製品として充分に生かせているのが気に入りました。

The best Shockwave toy I've ever own. This figure may not have the most dynamic posability out their but that's fitting for the character as a mad scientist who puts his time in his lab making Primus knows what in their. The toy is a spitting image of the original G1 style but with accessories and lovely detail to give it its own identity. The placement for the light piping is genius though I wouldn't mind a little more grime detail to give him a more intimidating appearance but overall it's a fantastic figure.

Shockwave ist fast genau so groß wie Ultra Magnus. Auch er kommt mit gutem Zubehör. Interessant ist die Tatsache das wenn man ihn lose verwandelt und ihn dann umdreht er fast so aussieht wie sein Original aus G1. Ansonsten kann ich nur sagen das er mir sehr gut gefällt.

This item arrived early. Great Updated Shockwave figure for Siege. Transforms into a cool little spaceship.

I display mine with the bits and bobs still attached.
