Accidentally.

It would be great because those G1 rubber hoses are mostly split in several parts. A heat-treated very tight coiled srping, but a soft spring, would fix that problem.

I'm betting it's just a temporary thing. I would expect the final release to be rubber.CombaticonsCombine? wrote:His gun arm has a button-like indent on it. Lights and sounds?
Gawd I'd hope not.

The arm hose is also part of the electronics. That hand-gun should light pretty bright with a satysfying "PEW PEW PEW". Also, Shock wave should have another button to say phrases. His eye would flash in sinch with his voice. It would be awesome!
I'm also pretty sure they can incorporate electronics without messing the overall design.

I personally detest electronics. They tend to ruin what could be great figures.
That being said, G1 Shockwave did incorporate the electronics well.
BUT ... will it add cost to what will already be a expensive figure?

At least, let's hope it will be a high quality rubber that don't dry out easely.

If they ,TT puts voice clips, I'd rather not, 'cause the JP version is waaaaaay opposite in character akin to the JP Starscream sounding like more of a young full of bravado upstart that the geeky high pitch schemer we all love. Corey Burton's Sark is the one true voice for Shockwave.
And ...electronics will hampre his mobility.
