    Nope, not a typo. This is my Classics Shackwave. I remember having the Radio Shack version of Shockwave. He was gray. I am REALLY happy how he turned out. I didn't think he would look this good in gray but he does. He looks like some buff henchmen. I used two of Shockblast's bigger shoulder and Universe Dropshot's arms. I also used two little pieces from TFTM Starscream for the forearms. Behold! SHACKWAVE!

    This is pretty cool. I dig everything about this custom the paintjob, the weapons, and of course the name. So great work, Solrac.

    yeah I like this one better too, the flat gray is smoother and shows detailing and depth better than the darker shiny purple.

    I still like the purple one better, this one looks like a drone. A cool drone, still!

    Actually, I'm torn between the two.....This one seems less 80s cartoonish and more mature, so that's -his- forté.

    As much as I love the shiny purple, this "Shackwave" is AWESOME, you can see the details so much more!

    Drone you say? I'll have to post more pics when I get a chance. ;) 

    Probably because I used 3 shades of gray while SHOCKwave has 2 shades of purple...and I ran out of the second one as I was painting him.
