    Nice. I'd give the gray legs and feet a metallic paint job, though. It'd match the cannon a little better. Also, nice job on factory matching the legs.

    Of course, the legs do look great on Shockwave, but holy crap! That alt mode looks great! I'm totally impressed at how the legs in that mode look so much like the handle shape of G1 Shockwave.

    That sound you hear is Cyclonus going up in price on ebay.

    That looks AWESOME!

    The design for the cannon is pants on head ******ed and I still hate it but that's the designers fault.

    Still it's pretty rad how a bit of colour can change a toy!

    Thanks for all the comments everyone!

    Yggdrasil, I was talking to Megatron31 about a possible G1 arm cannon replacement and he is up to something... There a chance this guy is going to get a bit more G1ified. :D

    I'm looking forward to seeing the replacement cannon.

    Is there any talks of mass producing it if it looks good?

    soundwave3k contacted me about this bought a week ago and we talked back and forth about it and here is what i came up with not finished but a rough prototype if you will. depending on how it goes over i may cast this part and make it availible for whoever wants it sorry for the huge pics

    it plugs in to the same socket the factory weapon does

    let me know what you guys think

    Wow, that looks great! I really like how you added details that line up with the ones already on his forearms.

    S3k. I thought it was a good mix of g1 but fitting to the details of the mold used.

    Soymonk the material i use is polyeurathane plastic. Tj did a review of one of my products in the 3p review forum.

    In other words, it really feels like a Classics/Generations toy. :)
