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.

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:Amelie wrote:

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.Baha08 wrote:All we need now is the possible Leader Class with the Arm cannon on the opposite arm.

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.

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.

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?frogbat wrote:not bad... still better than any megatron figure (actually can't think of any decent megatrons... perhaps armada tank megs was ok)
All pretty good (if not better) Megatron molds.

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.

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)

He's not all bad. I really like the callback to G1 Shockwave's wire-hiding hose. But the bot looks too stocky; Shockwave has typically been rather tall and lean looking. And ribcage chest does nothing to recall G1 Shockwave's signature light-bar chest.
And the alt mode? Wow... It's just a complete mess.
If you compare this character design to WFC Shockwave, DOTM Shockwave looks really weak. Now, I get that's not a completely fair comparison because we don't have an actual WFC Shockwave toy to compare to. Still, WFC Shockwave gets more of the key character cues right.

What Stunticons? Are you referring to the Wreckers (Roadbuster, Topspin, and Leadfoot)? Those guys are Autobots.G|R|I|M|L|O|C|K wrote:this may be the only DOTM figure i buy except for maybe say the stunticons and 1 or 2 others i saw
