    Sweet! Found in the wild?

    Alt mode combined with Onslaught looks good.

    Onslaught in alt-mode with both Shockwave and the PE railguns is one bot that means business!

    Not a bad looking Legends Shockwave. Not bad at all.

    I really do hope there is some kind of 5mm peg handle so that Shockwave can be held like a proper weapon/gun of some sort. If there is not, that will be a huge miss.

    I was not really sure if that was what that part of the instructions was about. I thought it was; but, you can never be too sure.

    Thanks for confirming that for me, Nevermore. Here's to hoping you are right.

    Indeed. You can see the setup quite well by looking at where he connects to Onslaught:

    [​IMG]

    It's a square peg with a regular 5mm one just behind it. Should work fine with the combiner hands, though the square peg may get in the way for other figures with chunky fists.

    It seems so weird to me that on all the stockart, instructions and photos they want Shockwave attached to Bruticus' back... I mean, he's the one Legends figure that literally turns into a gun and is also the only one actually used (albeit shortly and against his will) by the Combiner in the show!

    At least we know he'll work as a gun.

    As an aside, I'm really glad that olive chest is the 2nd wave Onslaught.

    He looks fantastic! Better than I expected actually.

    That being said, I don't really care for a Shockwave in Legends size so I hope this mould gets used for yet another character.

    Looks pretty excellent, as legends-class Shockwave toys go.

    It's a tiny bit sad that, with the liberal use of translucent parts, none went to that viewfinder.

    You can see the handle, and Shockwave being hand held, in this Botcon gallery

    Compare that to to images above:

    The handle folds away properly in both modes.

    For once, a Shockwave release has me at odds.
    On one hand, its SHOCKWAVE. That alone usually constitutes an instant purchase fr me. Plus, it's Legends/Cyberverse-scale, which is my favorite line.
    On the other hand, I really dislike the design. Having his knees become the gun cannon just seems... wrong to me. It also makes the lower legs all chunky instead of Shockwave-y. I also dislike that he's been relegated to being an accessory. Seriously???
    Oh well, I'll still get one for the shrine.

    On the CW hands the hole is on a thin bar across the back of the hand. The square peg in front should rest against the side of the hand/fingers so he doesn't wobble from side to side when being used as a gun. As for other figures..... I'm sure if it was really an issue with a toy you had to use him with you could slice the square block off.

    yes like hot rod not having flames on his chest.
    well, about the accessories; I totally ignore the CW non legend stuff, so for me the fact that powerglide has a gun mode is totally indifferent. BEsaiders, seriously, the CW are BUT UGLY, why gief them your money? ...
